Westminster College (Salt Lake City, UT)
Founded in 1875 by the United Church of Christ, Westminster College is a private, liberal arts college in the Sugar House neighborhood of Salt Lake City. Westminster College—which should not be confused with several other similarly named institutions—is the only accredited liberal arts school in the state of Utah.
The 27-acre campus is notable for its natural beauty, elegant architecture, the serene creek that runs from one end of the campus to the other, and its view of the Rocky Mountains. The college offers a blend of liberal arts and professional programs, and is divided into four separate Schools: Arts and Sciences, Business, Education, and Nursing and Health. Overall, the 2,800 students have access to approximately 70 programs, including 34 undergraduate programs and 12 graduate degrees.
Westminster currently has a student-to-faculty ratio of 11-to-one, to help students get the best education possible during their stay on campus.
Westminster College is accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities.
