I love Dixie State UNiversity!!!
Overall 4.8
Dixie State is seriously underrated. I am an out of state student who didn't know anything about DSU before attending. DSU is located in the prettiest town I've ever lived in, it's so close to so many fun places, there's so many ways to get involved, the teachers and students are super genuine, and it's SO AFFORDABLE!

Great atmosphere!

Best location for a school in Utah. You will not find better whether and more things to go out and do. The sports are going Division 1 this coming year so if you are into sports, you are going to start seeing even better athletics. On campus professors are incredible if you find the right one for you.

Dixie State was an amazing University for me to attend! I started at Dixie during its last year of Dixie State College and attended and graduated though Dixie State University. Watching and attending during that transformation from a college to University was amazing! Classes were small enough you could have that relationship with the teacher!
Bad reviews

This school finds countless ways to push back graduation from lying about credits to teachers who can't teach, teachers who choose favorites, and those who will fail for no reason. Multiple teachers don't get back to students with questions or concerns and have teachers who only care about money. Couldn't solve any issues, nor help with transfers.

Student services is supposed to help you find the services you need to succeed. Never told me how to pay my fees online and how to access my classes from thr online program. Teachers who can repeat whats in the book but can not discuss or show you the technique.
Overall 1.9
Youre probably smarter than your professors. There are only a couple places to eat and are not good. The professors do not even know how to put in grades. I could go on and on about how bad this school really is. If you are looking for a horrible experience, then this school is for you. I am traumatized from this school or university.

Dixie State is a good school, but if you don't know anyone it is hard to get included in things. The school is very caring and tries to reach out the best way they can. Students are very mixed and ages vary as well. Facilities could use some updating...
