Teena

Arizona State University is best known for their diversity and the oppurtunities academically and socially. It is research 1 University and is rising to be "the New American University". It is in a city with a ton of oppurtunity and variety of social and professional life. The professors are very involved and extremely qualified. Certain programs are competitive such as Business, Nursing, and architecture, but the overall availability of classes is very good. Other than the hot summers (most of the rest of the year is great weather) Arizona State is a great experience.
