About Tooele, Utah
Tooele is a city in Tooele County in the U.S. state of Utah. The Tooele Valley was the traditional territory of the Tooele Valley Goshute, a band of the Goshute Shoshone. ''Prison Break'' season 2 takes place primarily in Tooele where the characters search for D. B. Cooper's stolen money; in the show it is buried under a silo near the fictitious "double K ranch".

Does the school pay you to attend?
Grant aid from the school's own funds — the discount off sticker, on top of any federal or state help.
Modest institutional aid: 19% of freshmen get a grant from the school, averaging $758. Most of what lowers the price here is federal or state money, not the school's own funds.
Blends need-based and merit aid — IPEDS doesn't split the two, so a high number can mean generous merit scholarships, deep need-based aid, or both. Figures cover 98 full-time first-year undergraduates, 2022–23. Source: IPEDS Student Financial Aid.
