The state of Utah is well-known for having been settled by members of the LDS, or Mormon, Church.
As such, it should come as no surprise that Brigham Young University figures prominently in our ranking. However, UT is also home to a number of other excellent educational institutions, which this list highlights.
UT is also well-known for the opportunities to get outdoors. It boasts excellent snow, so for skiers and snowboarders, the state is paradise.
But you don't have to wait till winter to take advantage of the great outdoors. Some of the nation's most stunning National Parks are located in Utah as well. So if you're also wondering about the extracurricular possibilities for your college years, this is a great place to be.
