University of Utah
Graduate Student: The University of Utah has a good graduate program for a variety of students. Its greatest strengths are the quality of professors, academic opportunities, and surrounding environment. As a graduate student in the school of music, there is a great music scene with many of opportunities in the city, from the Utah Symphony to the Mormon Tabernacle. Many say that the Mormon presence dominates SLC, but I honestly have not noticed any major influence that affects my overall experience. While diverse, the program is perhaps more on the moderate/traditional side compared to programs in other nearby states. However, there are many opportunities for travel and funding to pursue academic endeavors (conferences, workshops, etc.). Overall, I have greatly enjoyed my time here (and especially being surrounded in the beautiful Utah Valley)!
