I'm graduating next semester and I am o glad to have chosen this university. It really is a welcoming place and you'll get an actual college experience with other students from different backgrounds.

UVU has been such an amazing school, with tons of opportunities to excel. Their campus resources are awesome, and make it easy to find any resource you need.
Overall 4.9
UVU is such an amazing university. They offer a wide range of classes and still offer the same level of education as the U or BYU. They are also cheaper than both of those schools and the people are nicer
Overall 4.9
Couldn't have asked for more from my college experience. Grateful for the connections I made, and grateful for the opportunities I was given.
Overall 4.9
This school is so sick. A lot of new freshman, including me, think that this school is lesser than the other major universities in the state but soon realize that that is just not true. I can promise you that you will have an amazing experience at UVU. Everyone is chill and just here to get a good education

UVU focuses on the dollar sign rather than the individual student. If it weren't for its cheap prices, I would not be here. I have been screwed over by councilors multiple times. Education in some areas is also very poor, and they would rather build a theater building rather than putting money into their deprecating IT program.
