    A Letter from USU Moabs Director

    Dr. Sam Sturman

    Technology is letting students attend

    colleges from nearly every location imaginable.

    So why would a student want to earn a degree

    living in Moab? To me that is obvious:

    location, location, and location.

    If you are an out of state student you payinstate tuition to attend Utah State

    University Moab.

    You have access to world class hiking,mountain biking, rafting, sightseeing,

    motorcycling, 4-wheeling, winter cross

    country skiing, and exploring.

    Students have access to two national parks along with thousands of square milesof public lands to explore. That is why I have chosen to work in Moab: location,

    location, and location.

    You get to live in one of the most spectacular locations on earth. USU Moab offers the following degrees in this community:

    3 pre-associate degrees

    14 bachelors 12 masters 1 doctorate 6 minors Endorsements and Certificates

    With more on the way!

    If you love the out of doors then USU Moab is your only choice. I hope this

    packet will help you become a student attending Utah Stat University at the Moab

    Center
