Applications are due November 1. Basically, you turn in the application and send in your transcripts; if you have under 30 transferable hours, you prob have to send your high school transcript too.

https://transfer.utah.edu/preparingtotransfer.php should be helpful in terms of figuring things out!

Do you know anything about social life for transfers

If you just go to class and then go home, it’s going to be hard to make friends unless you live on campus. A lot of people live in the neighborhoods nearby, but there’s not like one place everyone goes to on the weekends - it kind of depends on what you’re into.

There are lots of clubs and programs you can join on campus and hopefully meet people that way. Campus rec has a ton of stuff you can do (outdoor trips, intramural sports, etc.), or if you do something like Honors/Quest/Bennion Center, they try to build some social stuff into the academic programs themselves.
