UVU is an evolving school. It was once just a small college that people used as a stepping stone to get to BYU or the University of Utah or they would get small trade degrees that the larger schools didn't bother with. But now you could say that it has grown up. It has become a university and is expanding. There is an effort to retain those students that it would have once transfered and there are new facilities being built. In short is it becoming compitition for the larger schools not just the little brother.

Daniel

I don't know alot about all the departments in our school, but since we became a University, the theatre program has grown so much. The professors in our department come from all over the world, and have worked in a variety of professional settings. They care about the students, and search for ways to nurture our creative abilites. All students are given chances to show thier talents and learn new ones along the way. The students get along well too and I feel like I am part of a family there. Everyone knows our program is a great one.

Alexis

Honestly UVU is best known for the collage you would go to if you flunk out of another collage. All of the BYU students that flunked out but still wanted a collage degree went to UVU to get it. It is a good school though, everybody is friendly and most of the teachers care about the students actually learning. It also has a distance learning program where high school students can get there associates in high school. That what I did. Even though it was great for how I approached it, but I dont want to go there any more.
