    Not a former student yet, but I plan on going to USUE. It wasn't a hard choice from me because, all the positive feed back I received from other peers and parents. Seems like an excellent college and I'm excited to be a part of it.

    Utah State University-College of Eastern Utah is a great school because they have the lowest tuition in the state, but when you graduate you have a degree from USU. They also have really great teachers and the student/teacher ratio is about 15/1 so they can give you a lot of one on one time if you need it.

    While I am sure there are bigger colleges out there that are more involved USU Eastern gives you the option to pursue almost any degree either on the local Price campus or through distance education.
    Tips for prospective students

    Pay attention in class! The classes are small and professors are usually willing to work with you if you are willing to put forth effort. Use this to your advantage.
    In three sentences

    USU Eastern is a great opportunity for locals to better themselves without having to leave our beloved home town. I recommend all local high school students start their college careers here before pursuing other options. I hate to see people leave the area and not give back to the options we have.

    We had Hispanic Heritage Night a while ago and that was really fun. We played soccer, did Zumba and had a dinner.

    When living on campus you must purchase a meal plan. It's expensive but worth it. There is a wide variety of food each day so you don't get sick of it. Everything is made fresh so that's always a plus.
    Dorm Life

    Dorm life is a blast. Every week the Halls put on an activity for everyone to attend. There have been karaoke parties, caramel apple making, broom hockey and so much more.
    Academic Rigor

    It just like any other college, if you do you work you'll get the grade you want. It's all about staying focused on what you need to at the time being.
    Tips for prospective students

    Of all the tough decisions you have to make, living in the dorms is one of the simplest. It gives you an opportunity to have a social life and find the life long friends you want. We're all here to achieve an education and so finding those with your same interests is a wonderful thing.

    Campus Safety

    I always feel safe on this campus. The city police and campus police stick pretty close and keep a good eye out for us.
    Great for these types of students

    This school is perfect for someone looking for a small campus with small class sizes, or for the college student leaving home for the first time.
    Bang for the buck

    USU Eastern is one of the least expensive schools in the state of Utah. Not only that, but the teachers and student resources on campus are very helpful to a college student, especially one who is just leaving home for the first time!
    What to do for fun

    Price, Utah is a small place, so the free fun is mostly self-made. However, there are many places in town that give students discounts when they show their student ID. There are a few places to go if you have money to spend, such as two movie theaters, and more than a few restaurants. The school runs a museum, which allows free admission to students when they show their student ID. I have attended this museum, and it is spectacular!
    Food and Dining

    The food is good. It's not like living with a five star chef, but I have no complaints whatsoever about the food.
    Dorm Life

    The rules are kinda strict, but that's what keeps the students safe. The dorms are clean and comfortable.
    Academic Rigor

    This school is the same as any other school. Some professors teach difficult classes, and some are very relaxed with their classes. From my experiences, they all give you the best learning experiences possible.
    In three sentences

    USU Eastern is a great school! There are wonderful professors who truly care about their students! The best part is the small class sizes that allow for better learning!

    They have a lot going on, I fear that there may actually be too much going on to produce sufficient study time and skills.
    Great for these types of students

    Sports majors, cosmetology students.
    Bang for the buck

    Unfortunately, while this is still a fairly inexpensive educational facility, you still aren't getting everything that you paid for. A lot of the teachers honestly do not care whether you pass or fail, and don't seem interested in helping when you have questions.
    What to do for fun

    This is a small town, but don't let that fool you! The great outdoors awaits here in Price. Fossil hunting, site-seeing, hiking, camping, this really is a wonderful place to live even for a city girl like me.
    Food and Dining

    It has been a few years, so the food may have improved, but when I attended I got sick rather frequently from the cafeteria dining. It could have just been an unclean employee, I don't know.
    Dorm Life

    The dorms here are awful. Dramatic, noisy, counterproductive. There are also wild drunken parties and drugs. Campus police are there all the time. Not a good place for a serious student.
    Academic Rigor

    The classes here are okay, fairly simple and not a lot of hours required to maintain good grades. Attending class is a MUST however, as a lot of the grades are based on in-class notes, participation, and attendance. Which is a good thing, by the way.
    Tips for prospective students

    Getting involved with the social scene here in Price can either make you or break you. My suggestion, stick to your studies and don't worry about other students or activities. Get your work done.
    In three sentences

    USU-Eastern is an okay school to start out with. A student's goal should be to get in and get out with an AS or AA as quickly as possible. Be flexible with college plans, because the things you want to do in college won't always work the way you want them to.
