The professors at SUU are very kind, they do a lot of interaction with students in the classroom, and students and professors know each other well. There are not a lot of Chinese students so far, so being here will help you to improve your English listening and speaking skills and learn some local cultural traditions. Cedar City is a safe and quiet place, and if you like nature or outdoor activities, you have to come here.

I have been experiencing a great education and tremendous value at SUU. One thing that I like about SUU is its small class sizes where students get personal attention from professors. I like the fact that the professors and classmates are so helpful and encouraging. I can always go and ask for help from my instructors – for which I am grateful. The events that SUU hosts are so inclusive and there are many things that I can participate in to improve myself. The experiences I have been given at SUU are life changing.

SUU is a second home to me and I am so glad that I made the decision to come here. The professors really care about you which makes it so much easier to reach your academic goals. There are also a thousand opportunities to be involved on campus. I am part of SUUSA which stands for "Southern Utah University Student Association" and it gives me the opportunity to get work experience in my future job as a marketing director. SUU helps you accomplishing your dreams and I am so happy to be here every day!

I first heard about SUU from friends and professors who talked about the school's good pre-med program. Once I visited the school I was impressed by the care I received from the staff. They were so friendly and welcoming I felt I belonged to the school already. Class sizes are small and I like the fact that I can get full attention from my instructors. The school location is close to all sorts of fun such as Zion National Park, skiing and Las Vegas. I was never very interested in the outdoors but I didn't know what I was missing until I came to study at SUU.
