No offense to BYU-I, because I know people get really antsy about the "BYU superiority" thing, but BYU offers far more academic opportunities than BYU-I does. Far more high level research, much of which is published in top tier journals; top 10 schools for sending kids to PhD and Medical Schools; Top 3 accounting and business programs; High-ranking Law school, just to name a few. BYU isn't Harvard, but it's not BYU-I either.
