As part of its land-grant mission, Utah State University - USU Logan strives to allow access to education for as many people as possible. Part of this includes accepting nearly all applicants to attend one of its campuses, if not the main campus in Logan. Beyond Logan, Utah State University - USU Logan provides academic resources and support throughout the state. Regional campuses exist in Brigham City, Tooele, and the Uintah Basin, as well as the Price and San Juan campuses that constituted the former College of Eastern Utah (now known as USU-College of Eastern Utah). At each of these locations, students may receive any of a wide selection of degrees without ever stepping foot on the Logan campus. Utah State University - USU Logan also operates education centers in Moab, Ogden, Orem, Salt Lake City, and elsewhere, and extension offices in 28 of Utah's 29 counties.

Determining the precise terms of the USU/CEU merger is an ongoing process.
On December 16, 1861, Justin Morrill (VT) introduced a bill into the U.S. House of Representatives, "to establish at least one college in each state upon a sure and perpetual foundation, accessible to all, but especially to the sons of toil..." President Abraham Lincoln signed the Morrill Land-Grant Colleges Act into effect in July of the following year. Old Main, the agricultural college's now-iconic first building, now houses administrative offices and much of the College of HSS.
Meanwhile, after visiting a few rural agricultural schools in his native Denmark, Anthon H. Lund of the Utah Territorial Legislature decided that there existed in Utah a need for such a school fusing the highest in scientific and academic research with agriculture, the way of life for the vast majority of locals. Upon returning to the states, Lund heard about the Morrill Act, and pitched a vision for the college that would receive widespread support among the Territorial Legislature, who was at the time seeking to reapply for statehood. Now there came the question of location. According to historian Joel Ricks in 1938, "Provo had received the Insane Asylum, Salt Lake City had the Utah State University - USU Logan and Capitol, and the majority of the legislature felt that the new institutions should be given to Weber and Cache Counties." Citizens in Logan, Cache County, banded together and successfully lobbied representatives for the honor. The bill to establish the Agricultural College of Utah was passed on March 8, 1888, and on September 2, 1890, 14-year-old Miss Vendla Berntson enrolled as its first student.
