Southern Utah University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Robbie

I was very familiar with this school before I came as it was only an hour and fifteen minutes from where I graduated from high school.

Mandy

I wish I had known more about the student support center. I know about now and I love it. It has been very helpful to me and the people who work there are excellent. I only wish I had known about it sooner.

Alisha

I wish that I had know more on how to get financial help.

Brittany

I would have packed more snow gear -- this campus gets very cold in the winter! Luckily just an hour drive south is a very warm urban community, so many students travel there on the weekends to thaw out.

It's not worth stressing over. It's easier than high school was, and you have more time to be yourself and act and do things you want to.

Lori

I wish I would have known how many opportunities to become active and involved were available to me. Knowing that SUU prides themselves on student feedback and participation would have made my decision of which college to attend a lot quicker. There are so many things to do, whether you like to spend time outdoors or want to focus on becoming the best you can be by joining student based groups focused on helping out. The students at SUU are heavily invested into helping out the local community and making a difference.

Rachel

I wish I would have realized how hard it was going to be to be away from home and away from my friends. I wish I wouldn't have been naive.

Kyle

What I wish I would have known before I came to Southern Utah University would be how cold it gets. We are high in the mountains where it snows a lot. I came from Vegas so I was not use to the cold weather at all. I had to buy many of jackets to stay warm but as the number of months grew on I began to get use to the cold air. But the school is so amazing that you just deal with the weather
