Weber State University provides more than 200-degree programs, which includes 15 Masters Programs. The average class size is only 21 students, which means teachers can provide more support. Planned to make an attending school in Utah even more reasonable for international students, Weber Edge International is a program that provides new students the opportunity to pay the equivalent of in-state tuition and fees after finishing 24 credit hours at Weber State University.
