The fact books in this section (2019-2020) are in a different format than the older
fact books in the section below (2014-2018). Some of the information in previous fact
books can be found in the Annual Reports section above (Tableau dashboards).
The Fact Book gives general information about the University as a whole. In addition
to data provided by Institutional Research, it also includes information from other
areas of campus (Budget Office, Human Resources, Facilities, etc.) The sections in
the fact book are: General Information, Administration, Faculty, Enrollment, Students,
Support organizations, Finance, and Facilities. Many of the graphs in the book show
a five year trend. If you have questions about the data contained in the fact books
or need older information, please contact Laura Busby at 801-863-8456.

Enrollment & Persistence, First-time, First-year (Freshman) Admission, Transfer Admission,
Academic Offerings and Policies, Student Life, Annual Expenses, Financial Aid, Instructional
Facilities & Class Size, and Degrees Conferred.
