Why Salt Lake City?
The University of Utah is the heterogeneous core of a community that is more cosmopolitan than most newcomers suspect. As a public institution of higher learning, diversity is something that we are committed to and strive for. We believe that that plurality of perspective, viewpoint, and experience greatly enriches the educational process.
Salt Lake City is culturally mixed. Overall, it exemplifies the Western lifestyle -- less formal, less intense, less frenetic, and in general more friendly than life on the East or West coasts.
The University of Utah is a place where freedom of thought and freedom of belief are a living reality. The college's student body, faculty, and administration come from all over the United States and many parts of the world. Members of our law school community have varied backgrounds, and include actors, physicians, social workers, biologists, military officers, and teachers. As a result, we appreciate both commonality and difference. If you choose to become a member of this intelligent, high-achieving, ambitious group, we are confident you will discover there is a place for you among our faculty, administrators, staff, and students. You are free to be yourself.

Transportation
Many people will tell you that you need a car to get around the Salt Lake City environs. As a student, however, you are issued a UCard upon payment of tuition, which entitles you to ride free on all Utah Transit Authority buses and TRAX light rail throughout the Salt Lake Valley. (The ski resorts are an exception.) On-campus housing and student-friendly neighborhoods close to the University are within easy walking distance of the S.J. Quinney College of Law.
