UT offers doctoral degrees, master's degrees, bachelor's degrees, associate degrees, and certifications. As of fall 2022, there were 12,556 students enrolled at UT. Located in "Utah's Dixie", the institution began as the St. George Stake Academy, founded in 1911 by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) and sponsored by its local stake. In 1935, it became a state school of the Utah System of Higher Education. From 1923 until 1970 it was a two-year junior college named Dixie Junior College, and from 1970 until 2000 it was four-year Dixie College. From 2000 until 2013 it was named Dixie State College, and from 2013 until 2022 it was Dixie State University.
