Executive MBA Intensive Week Logistics
The Cliff Lodge at Snowbird Mountain Resort
We are excited to welcome you to Executive MBA Intensive Week! Please review the details below before you arrive. A map and directions to The Cliff Lodge are included on the back of this handout.
Arrival and Check-In
Please arrive on Monday, August 17 and check in at the Executive MBA registration table in the main lobby at 9 a.m.
You have been assigned a private room for the week. Because registration and class begin before the hotel’s standard check-in time, your room may not be ready when you arrive. If needed, the hotel can store your luggage until your room becomes available.
The Executive MBA Program covers your hotel room, meals, and snacks during scheduled breaks. Please have a credit card available at hotel check-in for any incidental expenses.
Extending Your Stay
To extend your stay outside of August 17-21, call Snowbird reservations at 1-800-453-3000 and identify yourself as part of the University of Utah Executive MBA Program. The group rate may be available based on hotel availability.
Daily Schedule and Attire
Breakfast will be available each morning from 7:00 to 8:00 a.m. Class begins promptly at 8:00 a.m.
Casual, comfortable attire is appropriate throughout the week. We recommend bringing a sweater or jacket, as classroom temperatures may fluctuate.
Fitness and Pool Access
The Cliff Spa fitness room will be available Tuesday-Friday, 6:00-8:00 a.m., and Monday-Thursday, 9:00-11:00 p.m. Access is through the 10th floor door using your room key.
The pool will be available 8:00 a.m.-8:00 p.m. through the spa front desk on the 9th floor. Please bring a swimsuit and exercise clothing if you plan to use these amenities.
Guests and Program Time
Intensive Week is an important opportunity to connect with your classmates and begin building relationships for the 21-month program. Because of the intensive schedule and focus on cohort-building, we ask that you not invite family or guests to join you at the resort during the week.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Executive MBA program!
