I think UA is beset known for their medical program and greek life. Sports and extracuricular clubs are great, but the amount of people in greek life is huge compared to the rest. Also, I've heard students coming from all over the nation, just to be a part of UA greek life. UA also offeres a ton of diverse majors, but I think the medical program draws in a large percentage of students. This is most likely due to the University Medical Center, but UA also has a strong emphasis on science courses.

The football games are really fun. Homecoming is definitely the biggest and most visible tradition. We burn the opposing team's mascot, and there is a week-long series of events during Homecoming week. All the clubs come out, and it's a lot of fun. There aren't a lot of centuries-old traditions. Running of the bulls is a Greek-life event, which some people get into. Homecoming was really fun for Chain Gang Junior Honorary, but other than that, there aren't a whole lot of campus-wide traditions. However, everyone does love the Wildcats.

The University of Arizona has made massive inroads in the fields of medical/biomedical research. We have one of the leading hospitals in the nation for many areas of the medical field, most notably, cancer research. However, the reason I personally chose the University of Arizona is because we have an outstanding veterinary college which thoroughly prepares students, especially large animal veterinary medicine seeking, to enter vet schools around the world.
