Bryce’s application to BYU Dec. 2008
I have had a unique educational opportunity in film and broadcasting by working at a local television station and at the Nebo School District's television station. I also had the opportunity to teach other students in the broadcasting class while serving as a teacher's assistant. I am an Eagle Scout. I served an honorable full time mission in Cape Town, South Africa. Through leadership experiences on my mission I learned to communicate and work successfully with others from a wide variety of cultures and backgrounds. I am the fifth of six children. All have served missions and are pursuing their college education. All of us have supported ourselves in school through scholarships and part time employment. Three have graduated from BYU and three (including me) are BYU students. Throughout my life I have been able to achieve near perfect attendance in all of my school classes. I graduated from high school with high honors. I have also placed three times in the top three for films that I produced for the Utah High School Film Festival.
The reasons why I want to attend an institution within the LDS Church Educational System are simple. I want to go to a school where others will encourage me to be the best that I can be. I want to live the highest standards of conduct and accountability. I also know that BYU has one of the best film programs in the country. I plan on pursuing a career in the film industry and I want to maintain the standards of the gospel. BYU provides the best opportunity to obtain this balance. I know that the decisions I make now will have a great impact on the rest of my life. In order to make the best decisions I know that I need to be in the best places.
The value I will add to BYU will be seen through my hard work and diligence in keeping the school standards. I will help others do the same by leading by example. When I do this I know that I will have the help of the Holy Ghost. I will feel good and will have opportunities to serve and help those around me and to be a positive influence in their lives.

I've never read that before, thanks for posting! It made me smile a little to read that 3 of his siblings had already graduated from BYU--he must not have realized that I graduated from the U and Kira from USU. Oh well :)
