What Students Are Saying

Apply for as many scholarships as you can! I wasn't lucky enough to have my parents help with my educational costs because of difficulties we as a family have been having with finances. Fortunately, I have had zero worries when it comes to paying tuition, etc. because of the many scholarships I received!
Karen from West Jordan, UT
Be very diligent when applying for scholarships within the college. Live in the dorms your freshman year. Have fun and explore the Sugar House area off campus!
Elizabeth from Riverton, UT
If you are a student who needs more one on one attention from a teacher, and works well in smaller settings then Westminster is perfect for you. I suggest living on campus if you do decide to make Westminster your college of choice. It allowed me to meet new friends and have opportunities to just chill when I'm not studying. If you want a bigger school with frats and sororities then I suggest maybe the University of Utah but just know they will have very large class settings, and won't have the intimate feeling Westminster provides.
Ashley from Pocatello, ID
get involved and make friends. westminster offers a lot of great opportunities for students to be involved. also because of the small student population, it enables students to interact and know one another on a more personal level.
mckenzie from spanish fork, ut
Apply early and make sure you have everything figured out a.k.a. what books and supplies you need and how much they are going to cost, what academic programs if any you are interested in, and the cost of tuition with and without financial aid.
Mystery from Clinton, UT
Get involved. Be friendly and approachable. Maybe take up skiing or snowboarding, because that is what everyone does.
Cassidy from Bountiful, UT
Take a campus visit! make sure you know what the school looks like, it may be too small for your liking. Get to know the staff! The admissions recruiters and fin aid people are very helpful and willing to assist you with what ever you need.
Daniel from Littlerock, CA
the greatest tip i can give is attend all of your classes. the class sizes are small enough that it will be noticed if you are not there. also, you are paying for these classes, so why not attend them? another tip i can give is participate in as many on campus activities as you possible can. aswc, the people who plan events, come up with so many fun activities and events that are great ways to meet people and generally just have fun.
Megan from Salt Lake City, UT
great business program.
wonderful networking around the school and helpful professors
Stephanie from West Valley, UT
Westmisnter is a complicated school to get into but it is fabulous. Be sure to get involved as there are always ways to meet others, get help in school, and make the best of your learning experience. There is always something going on in and out of school and it can be an incredible environment to grow.
