Message from Utah Valley University

Whether you enjoy outdoor adventures or prefer staying indoors, you can find it all in Utah Valley. Located in Orem, just 41 miles south of Salt Lake City, UVU is nestled between the beautiful Wasatch Mountains and Utah Lake. That means you can go skiing (water OR snow) year round.

If outdoor activities are not your taste, there are two major malls just minutes away from campus as well as a vibrant local art and music scene.
