Parents – sign up to receive text notifications and the parents’ version of the New Student Update, which is a weekly e-mail sent from our office to all admitted students who have accepted their offer. To sign up for the e-mail update please send us your e-mail and request to studentambassadors@byui.edu. For text notifications, simply text byuiparents to 25827.
Your student should recieve the New Student Packet in the mail. This packet includes the following tools to help them in their preparation for BYU-Idaho: 1) New Student Guide, and 2) Admitted and Arrival Checklists. Both of these publications are also available online at www.byui.edu/studentsupport.
Every admitted student who accepts their offer is assigned to a Student Ambassador. Your Student Ambassador is a current student volunteer who will answer any questions that your student or you may have. Your Ambassador will also work with your student in preparing for their BYU-Idaho experience prior to their arrival on campus. Ambassadors are generally assigned 10-15 weeks prior to the start of the semester.
Parents of new students are invited to participate in Get Connected during the Move-in Day (the first day of Get Connected) prior to the start of school. All newly admitted students to BYU-Idaho are expected to fully participate in Get Connected. Best of all it's free! That's right, there is no cost to your son/daughter to participate in Get Connected other than the optional social activies which include I-Night and Get Connected Expeditions. View the Get Connected schedule online by clicking on the semester icon link at the right of this page.
National studies show that students who actively participate in their orientation program are: 1) More likely to stay in college; 2) Have greater academic success; and 3) Are more satisfied with their college experience than that of their peers.
Unable to attend Get Connected on the Move-in Day with your son/daughter? We realize that not all parents are able to travel to Rexburg with their student. We are planning on streaming the BYU-Idaho Welcome with President and Sister Clark over the internet. To still allow you the opportunity to experience BYU-Idaho and Get Connected with your student.
