"I attended the University of Utah for my undergraduate and graduate degrees, and overall, it was a very positive experience. The campus is beautiful year-round, especially in the fall with the mountains as a backdrop. Academically, I found the faculty to be strong in my major (accounting). Research opportunities were abundant, and I appreciated the university’s emphasis on undergraduate involvement in labs. Compared to other schools I considered—like Utah State and Utah Valley University —Utah offered more flexibility in course planning and better internship access due to its Salt Lake City location. The student body was more diverse than I expected for the region, though I would have liked to see stronger support systems for first-generation and out-of-state students. If you're into skiing or the outdoors, it's hard to beat. The cost of attendance was reasonable, especially with scholarships, but housing in the area has become increasingly expensive. I’d recommend it to students who are motivated and want a solid academic experience in a vibrant metro area with access to nature."

"I am currently in the Masters of Accountancy program at University of Utah. It is a great university and has helped me land the perfect job. If you are looking to get in with a "Big Four" accounting firm, then you have to attend a university that they trust and recruit from. University of Utah will help you get there."

"I have experienced the value that I have received through the University of Utah already. Through their recruiting process through Beta Alpha Psi, I was able to secure an audit internship (and after receiving an offer, an actual position) at the CPA firm--Eide Bailly, LLP. This wouldn't be possible without the University of Utah. I'm excited to see the knowledge, benefits, and experiences I will receive after my Masters May of 2016."

"The U has put a lot in to new facilities and new technology. They also focused on our main purpose of getting our Masters Degrees- to get a job. From setting aside time to build our networks, to connecting us to recruiters, everyone leaves the Macc at UofU with a great job."
