  • My first day of college has finally come! honestly it was a bit nerve racking cause i've been living in Japan for the last two years... but I'm so excited to attend the school of my dreams!
    It's been a month since school started but I've been super caught up with studies, midterms, band, and a job. Definitely a lot to work with but fulfilling!
    ABOUT ME!!
    I'm Wanchai and I am a freshman at Brigham Young University. I am currently a computer science major and Japanese minor. I play snare for BYU's drumline and make CZcams videos about college, music, and just life in general!
    Thank you so much for watching my video!

    I graduated from the Y in 1989. Spent most of my time at the McKay education bldg under the SWK Tower. Looks like things are a bit different than what I remember. Where did the Tree of Wisdom sculpture end up? I heard it was moved. I sure couldn't do university life and schedules nowadays.

      @@WanchaiChab When I was there, the Tree of Wisdon sculpture was on the north of the library entrance. Do a Google search for BYU Tree of Wisdom sculpture and there are pictures. I had a class in the Jesse Knight building. Jesse Knight founded my hometown where I still live and named it Raymond after his son. Raymond, Alberta is that place.

    Thank you for making this video!! I'm a sophomore in high school, and BYU is my top school right now. I was wondering, do you think a 3.99/4.0 GPA (unweighted) would make me a contender for BYU? I haven't taken the ACT or SAT yet. Also, would they accept me if I'm not a Latter-Day Saint? I'm Catholic, but I really like the idea of the Honor Code. Thank you!!

      BYU’s admission process is super well-rounded! They really look at everything like extracurriculars and sports and not just grades! Also because of covid, I never took the act or sat and I still got admitted, but I know you’re a sophomore so it prolly doesn’t apply haha
