I was told by a applying returned Missionary that it is really hard to get into BYU now. He did anyway despite being an Early Return!
Is it because they prayed so hard?

It's because he is a full tithe payer.

Apparently the consensus that there is no sanction against early returns is supported.
At least in real life (concept foreign to the TBM)

Another scary myth "your life will be destroyed" destroyed.

I am proud of being early return, maybe I'll bear my testimony on that next month

"I would just like to let everyone know how grateful I am to have come home from my mission a year early. I got a lot done in that year I didn't spend preaching the gospel to people who didn't want it."

I had Crappy grades from Ricks/Hicks, was a RM; I didn't get in either.

'just as well'; I was getting hitched with DW #1 (~ '70), and I don't do well with regimentation; I would have been OUT THAT MUCH SOONER!
