Around Town

Located in the center of Sugarhouse, there are endless opportunities to have fun. In addition to the hundreds of on campus events the school offers, students can walk five minutes into the sugarhouse shopping district and be exposed to various restaurants, thrift shops, and stores. Access to free public transportation allows students to travel anywhere in Salt Lake City, a few fun locations being downtown and the Gateway shopping center. There are always concerts and festivals going on. In addition, there are many ski resorts all within an hour of campus, so the possibilites for winter and summer outdoor recreation are endless.

Salt Lake is so diverse and fun. I know there is tons to do, like going to concerts, skiing, biking, hiking, etc.

There is always something to do! join a club or go snow boarding

Westminster College has a number of NAIA and intramural activities as well as numerous outdoor- and theater-related events to add to the enjoyment of campus life.

Great on campus events

There are plenty of activities between athletics, student organizations, campus wide events, etc. and since a lot of the departments are small you will probably make friends with at least a few people and be able to go out into Salt Lake proper where there's actually a decent amount of stuff to do. If you are in the mood for a pub, particularly Irish, I recommend MacCool's :)

Your options are limitless! With the beautiful outdoor Utah surrounding you, there's no end to physical activity. There are weekly trips to the mountains to ski, snowboard, river raft, hike, camp, rock climb, or just explore. The campus is also close to the Capitol Theater, which offers endless performances by Ballet West, Utah Opera & others, Broadway Theatre, and other culturally rich experiences. Art, History, Science museums, Music venues, football games at the U -- you won't be bored.

Everyone around here does winter sports. If you don't you will not go wanting. There's always a cool event, free food somewhere, and almost anywhere you'd want to go is in walking distance.

There are a handful of outdoor activities you can participate in: rock climbing, hiking, skiing, snowboarding, and camping to name just a few. The Sugarhouse area offers a variety of places for students to study or hang out at. As for Downtown, the shopping is great, and there are a bunch of cool historic and interesting sites, not to mention the awesome food options down there!

Snowboarding and skiing of course! I don't have the money for going out but there is great shopping and restaurants and concerts. Its not so much fun without a car as the city is not within walking distance. They have a rental car on campus but it ends up costing.
