Founded in 1886 and located in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City, the mission of LDS Business College is to develop capable and trusted disciples of Jesus Christ. Students who attend are prepared with the knowledge, skills, abilities and connections they need to start powerful careers and prepare for the future. With a focus on deep learning and instruction by working professionals, students gain a real-world experience.
Thanks to small class sizes, students can connect with each other and form friendships throughout their time at the College. Local young single adult wards and family wards help facilitate lasting friendships through group activities, firesides and recreational events. UTA public transportation allows students to easily commute to campus through Bus, Trax, or the Frontrunner. LDS Business College provides a comprehensive education in an atmosphere consistent with the ideals and principles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints. This atmosphere is created and preserved through commitment from students, staff, faculty, and administration to conduct that reflects those Church ideals and principles.
The campus provides students with many opportunities to connect with the local community through shopping, concerts, sports, and many other activities.
