Utah Valley University Reviews
Rating 3.98 out of 5 3,624 reviews
Many of my family members have gone to this school under it's different names in the past. Recently I had my adult son go there. He received ZERO guidance, Zero assistance, Zero help when it came to his help with financial guidance. This school has truly gone in a very bad direction. I do not recommend it to anyone. There are plenty of much better colleges that will actual give you support that a freshman needs first starting out. Consider this a warning before you even consider this school. I would give it ZERO stars if I could.
During my time at UVU, I’ve really enjoyed the professors that I’ve had, and their commitment to other teaching. I feel like the campus life could be improved upon, or advertised more. But overall, I really enjoyed my experience at Utah Valley University. With only three semesters to go, I have felt that it’s been very affordable, and educators. I look forward to the last couple of semesters that I have, and seeing where life takes me with what I have learned.
UVU has great vibes. I love being a student here! I feel safe on and around campus. I’ve had to contact the UVU police before and they are always available and quick to respond. Safety is a top priority at UVU as well as security. Specifically, I love that UVU offers programs for students struggling with food insecurity. The food pantry is a great resource that’s open to all students and UVU is very clear about that. You don’t have to be in abject poverty to have access to the food pantry or student health services. I love the posters around the school that say something like, “buy gas or buy food? Buy gas! Use the UVU pantry!” I also happen to be a student employee at UVU which means I’m a mandatory reporter should anyone come to me with a title IX violation. This is very important to me and adds an extra measure of safety to the school. Overall, UVU is a happy place where the students have fun and are encouraged to have the best college experience possible. Go Wolverines!
