Why this school is an excellent choice for military membersWeber State University is the ideal place for military members and their families. Utah is dedicated to the many military men and women in our state and Weber State University is the leader in this effort. We have strong relationships with Hill Air Force Base with WSU advisers and liaisons close at hand for military projects. We have a campus just 5 minutes from the base, one of the states largest online and independent study offerings, military friendly policies and considerations for our military personnel. Students have many options to complete their educational goals and flexibility in enrollment requirements. We are also a leader in accepting transfer credits.
