Arizona is a huge school filled with lots of small communities. For example, the greek community is very large but you seem to know someone in every house regardless of size. The only thing I would change about the greek community, which is the best part of the school in my opinion is that it would be bigger and the houses would interact with eachother more often.

The best thing about Arizona is that anyone can learn and flourish in the field they love. The campus town in amazing! All the stores and venders are very friendly and helpful and cater to your needs. It's very easy to get to the campus from the airport because the airport is never crowded and you can always get a cab or shuttle. The school pride is spectacular! Everyone wears U of A gear and goes to all sport games. There is always someone to go to games with and its very easy to make friends.

I love the size of the University of Arizona. I find it exciting that every day you could walk to class the same way and never see the same people. You meet so many interesting people who can teach you a lot. I grew up on the north side of Tucson and didn't spend time around campus. It is a completely different atmosphere than anywhere else in Tucson. People here are very friendly, and also very individual. I have not had any big problems with the academics part of school. I must say that the math department at the University of Arizona is horrible, but thats my only complaint. It seems that everybody here has outstanding school pride! Our football and basketball games are always packed with students, and at these games is where I have made some of the greatest memories!

University of Arizona has a lot of school pride. It's definitely a college atmosphere and I believe that going here has given me the best experience of 'college life'. The Greek life here is wonderful and the students are very centrally involved with the campus. I love U of A!

There are a lot of great things about U of A. The greek life is AMAZING, everyone knows everyone and it's a great source of networking and connections. The school also has a great campus. Not being a commuter school has it's advantages as well, it allows closer bonds to form and more of a community to develop.

Awesome school to go to, a lot of good programs, one of the country's best business schools honestly a lot is offered and many of the programs are excellent so having a degree from Arizona is respected as more than just getting a degree at a state school. Definitely a college town, all you have to do is stay over a break of for summer to see the dramatic change in traffic and college-age kids around town. Lot of school pride, football games are a blast and the student section is pretty big but still manages to fill up and we've had some kickass homecoming upsets the last 3 years. Campus is gorgeous and constantly being updated and improved.

One thing that attracted me to Arizona was the campus. Walking from one end of campus to the other takes no more than 20 minutes and the buildings are centrally located around the mall. Landscaping is beautifully done and the weather is almost always perfect!

Molly

The school is definitely getting larger every year. Being in Greek life, or involved in other clubs, makes the campus seem smaller and makes it easier to make friends though. Tucson itself is not that great, and also sometimes dangerous, especially at night. However, I feel safe on campus. Because its in Tucson, people come up with creative ways to have fun. I love the student section at sporting events. Although our teams aren't always the best, it is so fun to go and be with all of the other kids that have Wildcat spirit!

The University of Arizona is just right. Though people think that Arizona is a desert, there are many other plants that grow here. I love the campus mall, for it is where everyone eats, talks, and spends time together. There is definitely a lot of school pride. I think that mostly everyone is proud to go here and loves it a lot. I will always love "CatWalk," which is where the students can participate on a walk to help cure breast cancer. It is very interesting and it displays all the students that care to help the community as a whole.
