- 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 TH-cam videos about college, music, and just life in general!
Thank you so much for watching my video!

Same!!
Do it!
Instablaster...
Any news ayan? Are you able to convince your parents?
Thank you for the video, I really enjoy!
This is awesome. Pressures me tbh haha I am planning in studying in byu-h after my mission. Thanks for this stuff. 😁
Same😊
PROUD OF YOU BUD!!!! Keep drummin!
Thank you Mr.V!
My first day of BYU was Fall last year too! This video popped up in my recommended. Hope to meet you on campus sometime when we are allowed to come back! :) - Sam
Oh no way! That's awesome! Hopefully school isn't online next semester!
@@WanchaiChab it better not be and if it is they better lower tuition!!
MORE VLOGS LIKE THIS PLEAAAASE!!!!!
This is so amazing video. 😍😍😍😍
Dope vid man, love the vibey music! I'm coming up this next Sep. Rn I'm looking at apt's, which one's do you hear are good? Does Helaman have a good rep?
If it's your first year and you haven't served a mission, Helaman or Heritage are great. Otherwise off campus might be better.
@@WanchaiChab Thanks homie, I'm transferring but will know virtually no one sooo😂 might end up picking one of the newb places haha.
most missionary went to BYU after their mission
I'm mexican and my dream is study in the University BYU, SOY MIEMBRO DE LA IGLESIA DE JESUCRISTO DE LOS ULTIMOS DÍAS y hablo español y un poco de ingles espero logar estudiar ahí
Ojala q si puedas! Yo tambien quiero estudiar en BYU el proximo año escolar!
confirmaste que estudiaras ahi?
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.
I wish I knew what sculpture you're talking about, but I wasn't on campus as much to know
@@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.
Ah, the pre-COVID days. I miss those times...
10:37 AYYYYYY
Highlight of the video
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!!
- Hayden
Thanks for watching! I wouldn't worry too much about your gpa. BYU just wants to know how you can serve the community by going here. And it's great that you approve of the Honor code. Good luck!
@@WanchaiChab Thanks for replying! That's good to hear. Thanks for the help!
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
@@clairekeller7765 That's so cool! That's really helpful!
I just got accepted and I am an international student from China, my gpa is 3.77 and I'm not a latter-Day Saint too. Don worry too much about that!
Thank you for the video! Do you study online or they allow to go on campus? Do you have drummer classes as before or it is cancelled? I want to know because I play trombone and don't want to pay tuition and study online.
Thank you for watching! Sorry for the late reply. Campus is open and you can study there. But masks are required. Band classes are a little different with social distancing but it is doable
@@WanchaiChab thanks, see you:)
@@WanchaiChab maybe you can make a video for us comparing pandemic and before pandemic way of studying?
@@alexey2929 I've been planning one! But I don't know much about the band stuff because I only do marching band
@@WanchaiChab I mean not only music. But overall, all classes. Just want to understand do you still feel like you are studying or is not worth it to spend so much money to go to the USA because mostly it is online classes.
So do you have a drumline coach that works with you for like another period, like usually every drumline?
Yessir!
How much tuition is there? Currently in UVU taking English clases and lookIng forward to enter here (UVU) or BYU. But need some savings before and need and idea of how much ? I am from Mexico
finserve.byu.edu/students-parents/tuition-fees-deadlines
I was not expecting that voice🤣
I’m deciding to go BYU Idaho as a international student. Did you submit your ACT scores for admission?
I didn't take the ACT, just SAT
Is this byu Provo? And are you living in dorm?
Yes! I am living in an apartment
yo let's go imma study BioTech there... you have any commands for me?
how to get good housing
Congrats! As far as housing, start looking now if you're going to start in Fall
Is that Mac Miller at 10:56 😬
Is the cost of living cheap there or something?
Its not too bad :)
but not all missionary
Is it hard to enter BYU in computer science?? Or transfer byui to byu??
I need ur help plz answer me😭😭😢😢
I don't think so. I wouldn't know much about transferring though
If you’re grades are good from BYUi and get some good recommendations and write compelling essays you can transfer just fine.
What's your course?
Jelaine Raven Cabadato You mean my major? Computer science
Is the rent expensive in the apartments that you live in.
Compared to other colleges in the US, the rent here isn't too bad
@@WanchaiChab Thanks
Did you take AP/IB classes back in high school?
I didn't!
@@WanchaiChab if you don't mind, can you tell me what your gpa was? Just for reference huhu
@@lonelychick4956 My GPA was 3.8 but I know students even with a 4.0 who were not accepted. GPA and test scores are not everything.
@@WanchaiChab thanks for the info btw your videos are great😁
@@lonelychick4956 of course! Thank you! Feel free to reach out on IG if you have any other questions
Hi! for students who aren’t a member of the latter day saints, is it compulsory to take religious classes?
Yes, everyone is required to take the religion classes. They are quite insightful!
Are you yourself Mormon? Great vid btw
Yes, I am LDS
Thank you for watching!
#dreamschoolasanldsmember
Hey man, I wanted to ask for you heritage? Are you Filipino?
I am Thai/Cambodian
@@WanchaiChab
Very cool! How did you/ your parents discover Mormonism?
@@aurora3067 They met the missionaries after coming to America
@@WanchaiChab Oh cool man! Do you still live in Utah?
@@aurora3067 Yes
BYU is reasonable but also offering high quality education. I wish I could study there. However, I'm Japanese, and not Mormon. I heard that diversity of the school is lacking, and 99% are Mormon, so I’m worried about being discriminated or bullied….
Thank you for watching the video! Many of my friends are Japanese and not a member of the church. Everyone is really nice here and I can definitely help you feel more welcome!
@@WanchaiChab Omg! Thank you so much for replying to me:) Btw I really enjoyed your video! keep updating your life at BYU for me✨ 頑張って下さい！
@@Sakura-no5ud 動画観てくれてありがとう！何か質問等あったらInstagramでDMしてください！
Religion class not like Institute? Have you ever attended an institute class before? If so, you had a less-effective teacher.
It was only the first day so I didn't have much to compare it to. As the semester went on, I saw the similarities.
hi plss notice me
