Brigham Young University
PRE-3: Institutional Boundary

In 2022, BYU's main campus comprised about 300 buildings on approximately 600 acres in Provo, Utah. As the flagship university of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, BYU continues to service the adjacent Missionary Training Center, a 39-acre, 16-building complex that prepares volunteer missionaries, many of whom are BYU students who delay or pause their education to serve an extended assignment for the Church. Though separate financially and administratively from BYU, the MTC receives power, heat, and cooling from BYU, and its material waste is managed by BYU. Therefore, as noted, some operational categories of this report include the MTC's square footage, acreage, and resident headcounts.

Outside the institutional boundary described above is an agricultural experiment station near St. George, Utah, a satellite campus in Salt Lake City, and student centers in Jerusalem, London, and Washington, D.C. Also beyond this institutional boundary are nearby Y Mountain, several canyon guesthouses, and a mountain observatory, which are separate from BYU’s contiguous systems and dependent on vendors with different utility management, data collection, and billing procedures.

Two additional properties, acquired by BYU but renovated through 2022 or later, were also excluded from the 2022 boundary: West Campus and Riviera Apartments.
