Southern Utah University has been ranked by College Choice, which put SUU in fourth place for best colleges in Utah in 2017. Within the ranking, SUU is listed as the second best public school in Utah, edging out Utah State University, Weber, and Snow College.
According to College Choice, the ranking is based on institutional excellence, student satisfaction, and return on investment — a measurement of total cost against expected early career income. The data from the ranking comes from the National Center for Education Statistics’ IPEDS database, U.S. News & World Report, Payscale, and individual college websites.
SUU is referred to as the “university of the parks,” thanks to its close proximity to several outdoor recreational areas and its educational partnerships with the National Park Service.
“SUU is a student focused and student prioritized university,” said Hayden Carroll, student body president at SUU. “It’s large enough to offer incredible amounts of opportunities but small enough to allow the students to receive a personalized education. We take pride in our beautiful campus and the matchless university experience that it offers.”
