Study Tips For Provo Students at Cinnamon Tree Apartments

Hello http://www.cinnamontreeapts.com/ visitors! Thanks for stopping by. Today in our BYU housing blog we want to provide some study tips for all of the hard working students living in Provo off campus housing. Although it goes without saying, any good study plan should start with regular class attendance, organization, and note taking.

While many BYU students find it useful to discover what ‘type’ of learner they are, make sure not to pigeonhole yourself into one set of study techniques. Different subject material may require you to change study tactics.

Don’t rule out old-school study drills such as flashcards, they still help out a lot when Provo BYU students have facts to memorize.

Studying usually is most effective for BYU apartment residents when it is spread out into smaller sessions throughout the day, or when short breaks are taken every 15-20 minutes.

Make sure to take advantage of the various BYU campus resources such as labs, tutors, and teaching assistants.

And don’t forget that it’s important for all students in the Provo area to take care of themselves by eating a healthy, natural diet, getting enough sleep, exercising, and effectively managing stress.

My name is Connie Meyers and I am the manager at Cinnamon Tree Apartments apartments. We provide BYU students with affordable off-campus, BYU approved housing. We are located at 1285 North Freedom blvd in Provo, which is within walking distance to BYU campus.

If you have any questions about our Provo off-campus housing for next semester, give me a call at 801-373-8023, and happy studying!

Origins Of The BYU-Utah Rivalry

Origins Of The BYU-Utah Rivalry

Welcome to the Cinnamon Tree Apartments blog. This blog is for Cinnamon Tree Apartments residents and BYU students looking for the best off-campus housing in Provo. Today’s article is about the origins of one of the most enduring college sports rivalries in the country, the BYU-Utah rivalry.

Deseret News sports writer Brad Rock explains it this way:

“The earliest sporting event between Utah and BYU was in 1895. A history of BYU’s College of Physical Education indicates that Brigham Young Academy and Utah met for a baseball game. Though details are sketchy, two things about the event were recorded: it ended in a scoreless tie, and there was a bench-clearing brawl.”1

It’s no wonder this match-up has gotten extremely intense, it has been gaining momentum for over 116 years!

Cinnamon Tree Apartments is a great place to start a lifetime of BYU allegiance. While living at Cinnamon Tree Apartments and attending BYU in Provo, you can cheer on the Cougars in football, basketball, baseball, tennis, rugby, gymnastics, or track. If sports isn’t your thing, there is always debate.
