DO NOT DO IT
University Gateway. Make sure that you take a look at it in another avenue than just through UVU Housing; here, you see what people really think and how it's really portrayed, unlike the facade they portray there.
Before I "go off," the reason I didn't leave is because it was close, conveniently so, to campus, and especially to the Keller Building, where I did most of my MBA work. It gets credit for its closeness to campus, but that's about it.
Despite holding regular clean checks every... [other] month or so, they allow for the general living conditions to degrade. Be prepared to submit SEVERAL work orders to get things fixed, and maybe SEVERAL MORE for the same issues. In my case, a water issue from the floor above us caused a hole to open up in the bathroom ceiling, and it took no less than FIVE work orders for the maintenance people to fix it properly.
Did you assume this was student housing? Oh, no. No, the management at this place allows for older individuals and their own staff to stay on-site, which isn't a problem itself. No, the problem arises when the people above you (friends of the manager or maintenance) have like half a dozen kids who stomp around, cry, scream, or otherwise cause a ton of noise. "Quiet hours" are 10 PM - 7 AM, so as long as they're not making noise within those hours, management won't do jack to help address the problem. That's also to say nothing of the dog these people had locked in their home when they both worked, which would cry and whine all day long. This latter problem got worked out, but it took a while.
Management is also generally apathetic. Yes, I'm aware that it's difficult to run an apartment complex and that the job comes with its fair share of issues, but if you look at the whole "manager vs. leader" concept, these people are unexceptional and do not care. They are bosses, not leaders. New management, even a new property management company (current: Nelson Partners) would benefit this place; new eyes and perspectives are needed BADLY.
Also, don't plan on having a pool at your disposal. Yes, the complex has one, and no, it hasn't been usable for nigh unto a year. Saw some friends of management in there the other day though. They also punished the whole complex for laundry room hours due to the "sins of a few."
