Welcome West
RVU established our first home in Colorado because many counties were designated as medically underserved. In Utah, we help address a shortage of primary care—and in Montana, we were the first 4-year medical school in the state.
Across our three campuses, our students are helping to serve communities in need of a high standard of medical professionals. All while enjoying everything that these beautiful states have to offer.
