Academics

On a scale of community college to Harvard, it probably lies somewhere on the lower end of the scale. But, as with anything, it depends on what classes you take, what professors you take, and how hard you apply yourself.

The academics of the university are great, they haven't been too hard. The professors teaching your class also helps decide if the class will be difficult. There are plenty of great professors at the university but there are some harder ones as well. I'd recommend doing some research about the professor of your selected course.

I loved UVU because the professors are there for your success. Even though this school is growing to be one of the largest in the state, the professors still care about your individual success. I was in the sciences for most of my time at UVU, and the courses I took were some of the hardest classes I have yet to face, but because they were hard, and a lot was expected of me, I was able to actually learn and retain the knowledge that was given me, even now!

You can learn a lot, especially once you get into your intended major.
