My opinion of the University of Utah is quite positive. It is a really affordable school for those looking to build on their education post-high school. They really care about their students and find ways to help their students get prepared for the outside world. I also feel like the professors know that you are a student but you also have things outside of school as well. They know that being a student is difficult and everyone needs an escape from life. Teachers are always available to meet outside of class and are always voicing concern about taking care of your health first to help you flourish in school. There are plenty of ways to get involved in the community up there and it has a really great student life near the campus. The other thing is everyone tends to be really friendly and there is a lot of love and devotion for the campus. I love going to class and wouldn't miss it for anything in the world.
The University of Utah is a great place to study. We have a large variety of courses to take and so many ways to get involved. The campus is beautiful and recently there have been so many cultural events to highlight the diversity at the U. It feels like home and there are so many amazing people and opportunities to explore.
I love the University of Utah, when I first visited I was like yep! This is it!! I love everything from the people, the campus, the classes, the vibe that the university gives off! My parents said if I am able to get enough scholarships we might be able to make it work!!
I think the University of Utah is an awesome university, with access to a multitude of degrees. I love that the campus is so diverse, not only with the students, but also with the professors. It is like its own city, and I love that. I feel represented as a young half-Asian, half-white female, and that makes me feel welcomed, safe, and heard. I really hope that I am accepted, because my dad and his siblings attended the University of Utah, and I want to have the same opportunity to receive an outstanding education that will give me the best opportunity post-graduation.

I am 32 and have been working in manual labor jobs most of my life. I am not ashamed of this and appreciate that I have been able to support my family in this way. I have come to realize that at some point my body will not tolerate the punishment I put it through for work and for that reason I am very motivated to educate myself. I would like to transition to not only working with my hands but to also work with my mind and heart to help others. I am very excited about this new phase of life and a new ability to serve others with a new skill set. I have no doubt that I will do well and become a well educated nurse.
My classmates are usually friendly and they aer easy to get along with and work with.
I am in the biology field where most students expect to go to pre-professional schools. Within classrooms, there is much competition and sabotage of other students in order to succeed above one another. Not many students truly want to help others. The classrooms are filled with people who are always looking after themselves and will do nearly anything to get ahead.
Convienient with lots of opportunities and a staff and faculty that truly care.
I wish I had known about all of the resources and organizations the school has for students. There is a lot that the school has to offer besides just classes, and to get your money's worth and a good education in general, it is almost critical to utilize the resources that the school has to offer. I wish I would have known how important it is to jump in with both feet from the start.
The U is cool because all the buildings are open and you get to walk from class to class outside. Food offerred at school is good and is avalible all around campus. The library is nice and big with a good computer lab and study rooms.
What I find most frustrating is how scattered everything is- it's such a large campus that you find yourself not having enough time in between classes.
It is a well acredited school, where many people go to get a great education.
The kind of person who should attend the University of Utah is someone who is willing to explore new ideas, challenge their known knowledge, and be ready to be transformed into a better person that will make their dream career real. Not only will you be equipped to become the best you can be, you learn so much in the four or five years in college about yourself so the person definitely needs to be ready to look within themselves and be ready to change for the better.
The University of Utah is unique for many reasons. One outstanding reason is its pristine location. A student at the University of Utah can live in an urban environment, where it is possible to find diversity and social connection while having pristine wilderness in their back yard. The Wasatch Front is a mountain range that offers endless recreational opportunities. One can attend classes in the morning and be rock climbing, skiing, hiking, fishing or any number of other recreational pursuits, in the same afternoon. It offers a balance between social, artistic, academic stimulation and solitude with pristine recreation.
I feel that every single person has an opportunity to fit it.
There is fantastic medical program, but I think what a lot of people know it for is the outdoor recreation. Skiing and snowboarding resorts are between 15-30 minutes away, so they are really simple to get to. Utah has the best snow on earth!
Academics are excellent. To make the dean's list, students need at least a 3.5 gpa, which is .5 higher than most colleges. We study all the time and the professors are really helpful. They are all willing to meet with you outside of class if necessary.
All weird Mormons. Nothing to do in Utah.
Campus is GORGEOUS. It's like walking through a park. However, the parking stinks, so try to live on campus and walk to class or take the campus shuttle. If you live off campus, take the bus, carpool, or take TRAX. We get free public transportation as students.
No. There are plenty of people on campus who are not mormon. Not everyone outside of the LDS faith gets drunk or parties (including me).

The University of Utah has a very innovative environment. We focus on education and innovation. Every college has their own goals and missions, but we instill so much pride in its students. Anyone coming out of this school is well educated and ready for the workforce. We prepare students to enter their career with the knowledge that they will need to lead them through the rest of their lives.

Because we are in Utah, the majority of our campus is stereotyped as Mormon however we probably have the less Mormons than other schools in Utah. Our campus prides itself on diversity.
