University of Utah Top Questions

I learned that the key to unlocking my education at the U was not being afraid to ask for help. At first, I was intimidated to attend Utah. Looking back, I wish I would have known despite the its size and academic rigor, it is a very approachable school. You don't have to be afraid of the challenges you will face once admitted. You can face them with confidence because you'll have adivsors to help you discover your major, professors to empower your learning, and fellow students to support you. All you have to do is ask!
