Arizona State University-Tempe Top Questions

The school spirit.

Its so large that it can be easy to dissapear. And people forget your face the instant you are out of view.

I think the fact that we offer so many varying degrees and degree programs in a tribute to how committed Arizona is about keeping its students in state and making it affordable to people from varying socio-economic backgrounds. I believe the administration is getting serious about turning around ASU's reputation from a party school to a more academically-focused institution. I appreciate this because this only increases the value of my degree from this institution.

The diversity as well as the universities willingness to prepare students for the workplace.

I believe that greek life is the best thing. Since I have joined, I have been able to meet many more people that I did before.

The availability of new research, the school spirit, the faculty

I love the diversity of the courses and subjects allowed, especially since freshmen can take many different courses to find out what direction they ultimately want to take. Majors aren't required to be declared until sophomore year, and meanwhile there are many different "tracks" to take that can lead somewhere but retain flexibility (counselors/advisors are always available too). The professors I've had have been great overall, although a few classes seemed rote.

The friendships made through classes

Athletics, Lets face it the worlds revolves around athletics. Its really the only thing that can bring peace, provide entertainment, and give back to communites all at the same time. ASU athletics are overall very good programs and compete at the highest level.

The school is huge, population wise, and you will most likely find something to fit your personality.
