Julie A. Stoffer (born July 11, 1979) is a reality show personality,
best known as a cast member on MTV's reality television series The
Real World: New Orleans, the ninth season of The Real World series.
Stoffer was notable for being the first Mormon featured on The Real
World.On a whim, Stoffer auditioned among 35,000 other people to be on
the show. "When I went to L.A., it was just life-changing. I got out
there, and I saw a whole new world that I've never seen before,"
Stoffer said. "I met some really cool people, and I realized, if this
experience could be this cool in a couple of days, imagine four months
in a new place with new people. I just wanted to meet new people, see
new things, see what I wasn't seeing in Provo." Stoffer called the
experience "eye-opening." "I saw so much. I learned so much in four
months that I've never even known about."On a whim, Stoffer auditioned

when they selected Stoffer. Before filming began, she received a
blessing from her bishop that she would be "an example to the world."
Despite this, Stoffer was suspended from Brigham Young University in
July 2000 for honor code breaches relating to her participation on the
program. The school's honor code prohibits unmarried students from
living in the same house with unrelated people of the opposite sex,
including during breaks away from school. Both Stoffer and her
parents, themselves BYU alumni, criticized the manner in which the
school suspended Stoffer, on the grounds that the letter with which
BYU notified Stoffer of their decision, according to the Stoffers,
implied that Stoffer had sexual relations with her male housemates,
which Stoffer characterized as "totally false and slanderous." The
school gave Stoffer six days to appeal their ruling, and included an
outline of actions that Stoffer could take to regain admittance to the
school, but as Stoffer was traveling while filming the MTV spinoff
series, Real World/Road Rules Challenge, she did not file an appeal,
and later stated that she felt no respect for the school or its Honor
Code, accusing the institution of assuming, on the basis of a
"technical[ity]", that she was guilty of immoral conduct, when the
footage shot during her time in the Real World mansion established
otherwise.Following The Real World, Stoffer continued to participate
in MTV shows such as Real World/Road Rules Extreme Challenge. Julie Stoffer Top Movies & Young Movies
