 I am a senior and im looking to apply to U. of Utah at Salt Lake. Can anyone (if you go there) let me know what the school is like; the food, classes, class size, and if you are from out of state, how much extra is airfare, and is it a good recommendation?

Dude all you need is a one way ticket. once you hit college, you are on your own. Its time to step up and be a man. All college food is going to give you liquid shit so don't even consider comparing it to other places. Go to Utah because it dope. I have two friends there right now having the best times of their life

I'd worry more about out of state tuition than airfare

ill try to actually be helpful

food: decent, but it gets old quick. lots of burgers and pizza and shit like that

classes: pretty big, especially your first year or two. expect a few lecture halls with a couple hundred students in them

I have a tour tomorrow. It's my first time to the salt lKe area and I love it. I'm kinda worried the university is too big tho. I might just go to Bozeman. If you are worried about airfare stay on the east coast. I live in ak and I'm not worried about airfare

U of U is sick.

Housing complex, from what I've seen, is nice.

Food, meh.

Classes, I sat in on a few and they do seem rather large, but you'll get used to that.


One problem, from what my friends who go there say, U of U is a dry school. We just went over to Westminster to party when I visited.

But I'm heartset on UBC. soo..
