It offers certificates and associate degrees in a number of areas, along with bachelor's degrees in music and software engineering and a four-year nursing program. Snow College is operated as part of the Utah System of Higher Education. DescriptionFounded in 1888 by local citizens as Sanpete Stake Academy, the school was later renamed Snow Academy to honor Lorenzo Snow and Erastus Snow, cousins who were leaders in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). It is one of the oldest junior colleges west of the Mississippi. The name was changed to Snow College in 1923.
