You can go to BYU if you're not Mormon, but apparently you should leave if you start to have any doubts...

So it's ok if you're not a Mormon as long as you are a committed Mormon.

Re: probably not in the top 10 weirdest Mormon things but...
It is true that not all BYU students are LDS. The church sees value in allowing non-Mormon students who see the church positively and support its values to enroll. Why not allow students who leave the church to remain enrolled like any other non-LDS student? The answer is that as far as the church is concerned, position is not nearly as important as direction. Just like a repentant sinner is cause for celebration while someone drifting off into sin is treated as a catastrophe, a friendly non-member is not the same as a friendly ex-member.
