Living in Salt Lake City
Set minutes away from spectacular mountains, Salt Lake City has the best of both urban and mountain life. Many of our students take advantage of our accessibility to winter sports and summer hiking.
From the numerous mountain ranges to the unprecedented access to five national parks, it's no wonder that Utah was named the No. 1 Best State Overall for 2 years in a row.
