About us
The Utah System of Higher Education (USHE) is governed by the Utah Board of Higher Education and is comprised of Utah’s eight public colleges and universities and eight technical colleges. The CEO of USHE is the Commissioner of Higher Education. The Commissioner and staff provide statewide leadership, policy recommendations, and execute Board policies, programs, and strategies. The Utah Legislature grants the Utah Board of Higher Education the power to control, manage, and supervise USHE. The Board’s major responsibilities include selecting and evaluating institutional presidents, setting policy, reviewing programs and degrees, approving institutional missions, and submitting a unified higher education budget request to the Governor and State Legislature. The Utah Board of Higher Education is comprised of 18 Utah citizens, all appointed by the Governor. There are two student Board members, one from a degree-granting public college or university and one from a technical college. The Utah Higher Education Assistance Authority (UHEAA) and my529 (formerly the Utah Educational Savings Plan) are also under the oversight of the Board of Higher Education, and both organizations help to guide Utahns through the higher education financial planning process.

🎉 A warm welcome from Snow College! 🎉 This week, Snow College rolled out the red carpet for the Utah College Advising Corps (UCAC) as our advisers travel across the state, connecting with USHE degree-granting institutions. UCAC advisers will also connect with USHE Technical Colleges regionally. Seeing this sign was such a highlight—thank you, Snow College, for making the cohort feel right at home! The UCAC program is all about empowering students and guiding them on their path to higher education. It’s inspiring to see institutions like Snow College embracing this mission and helping to create opportunities for students across Utah. #SnowCollege #UCAC #CollegeAccess #UtahEducation #HigherEd #collegeaccessadvisers

“Like most young adults when I started college, I didn’t know what direction to take. SUU provided a powerful path of discovery, where I was able to try out different career options I was interested in. Through discovery, great professors and many leadership opportunities at SUU, I found my career. I found a work that I love and great people to work with. As an SUU alumna, I remember hoping at my graduation that one day I would be able to give back to a university that has given me so much. Every single thing I learned in higher education has been a springboard for my entire life.” -Jodi Hart-Wilson, SUU Board of Trustees Chair and partner in RRJ Consulting #TBirdNation #CollegeIsWorthIt #HigherEdLiftsUtah

I grew up in the Philippines, a country where higher education is unaffordable for many. My parents never attended college. I was lucky enough to receive scholarships and help from friends and family, and attended the University of the Philippines, BYU, Harvard, and MIT. My education launched a career that has spanned five countries and stints in foreign policy during the Cold War, philanthropy, venture capital, peace negotiations, government affairs, and technology. Today, as a university president, I witness the profound changes in students’ lives from freshman year to graduation. Higher education empowers people to lead more meaningful, productive, and dignified lives. On National Higher Education Day, I’m here to say that #CollegeIsWorthIt #HigherEdLiftsUtah #UVUDegreeWorthIt

"Higher education is very important to me and my entire family. I owe particular thanks to Southern Utah University. My wife Brenda, and I both obtained degrees from SUU that set the stage for all three of our children to also graduate from SUU. Two of our sons-in-law are T-Bird graduates as well. As a result, our entire family owes our livelihoods to obtaining meaningful educational experiences and degrees from a high-quality university right here in Utah from SUU." -Eric Schmutz, President and CEO of State Bank of Southern Utah, and Vice Chair of the SUU Board of Trustees #TBirdNation #CollegeIsWorthIt #HigherEdLiftsUtah
