University of Utah Top Questions

I chose the University of Utah because of it's high level ballet specific degree program. I liked that it had this focused program within the context of a large university so that I would also have the opportunity to branch out into other areas.

I didn't consider other schools

This school is positioned on the Utah mountains, close to the canyons. It overlooks the Salt Lake Valley, and it has several popular venues close to campus.

The University is on the cutting edge on all fronts, Medical, Engineering, Chemistry, Visual Arts, Business and Performing Arts. The campus is unique with a 9 hole golf course in the middle, 4 performing arts theaters, 2 museums and home to the 2002 Winter Olympic Villege. The university is squeezed between Salt Lake City and the Mountains allowing for exploration of the outdoors or getting involved in a SMALL city. The Campus is also located only 25mins from 5 ski resorts.

Utah is great! It is loads of fun and the people are super nice. The dorms are SOOOOOO nice!!! They are all suite style. Dining hall food isn't that great, so try to live in the on campus apartments once you have enough credits.

I can't seem to find any single lesbians in this place....

The food available on campus is absolutely horrible. The quality of the food in the student union and the student dining facility is not good at all. Choices are extremely limited, which makes it easy for the food to be sub-par. The parking at the U is also another one of the huge issues. Finding a parking spot in close proximity to everything at the U is near impossible. With that being said, its one of the small prices to pay for having such a spread out campus that has it's own unique feel.

We are not all MORMONS!!!! They are kewl don't get me wrong but we aren't all them.

Don't be afraid to come to Utah because of the mormons. If anything, you should want to come and show them that you don't care if being gay makes you a sinner. I love having missionaries over to my place for a lesson, but that's only because I have a slight crush on one of them...

- Overall, the U is an EXCELLENT choice for someone who wants a quality education for a FRACTION of the cost of an Ivy. Its professors are top-notch, research programs are uncomparable, and its closeness to and tollerance of everything make it an enjoyable place.
