Safety at BYU Idaho

BYU-Idaho is a pretty safe campus. Campus security has set up many emergency call boxes throughout campus. The campus police also often patrol the campus daily. BYU-Idaho's campus police have also coordinated with the community police department to insure the safety of students, faculty, and community residents. Crimes that do occur off or on campus are usually only minor violations.

Good Variety

Rexburg has a lot of housing available with a pretty wide range of price ranges. You don't always get what you pay for.

No Real Problems

I have not experienced any problems with drugs or alcohol or even seen any on campus or any students involved in them. Peer pressure is also not a big issue because we are older and are more concerned with our future and not what others want. Policy enforcement should not be a big thing because we signed a contract when we came to this school but I know a couple of students who have had problems and it has had to be resolved.
