Transborder Latina/O Chicana/O Studies

Not only do you get to learn more about Latinos in America and around the world, you get to learn about their health disparities, standard of living, and how we can improve all things for them. We also learn about other minorities in America and all of our data is compared. You get to learn a lot about all races around the world that reside here in the US.

Academics

While the academics at ASU are not bad, and the staff members are mostly helpful, the administration seems not to care at all about the well-being of its students. It is not a good feeling and the reason for my transfer.

Classes Really Help With My Future

I am in the Exercise and Wellness major and the education I have been getting is very beneficial to what I want to do after college.

The Academics Are Expected

This is a college campus and the courses reflect higher learning. ASU fulfills the college academic experience

Beautiful People

There is an unusually large amount of good-looking guys and girls here. Lots of tan fit people with pretty faces, but you see all kinds here. There are definitely plenty of options.

Small Class Sizes

Since I am in a design major, most of my classes have been around 18-20 kids, which has its advantages. The professors care more about your well-being and pay close attention to your work giving constructive feedback. For two larger sized classes I had, the teachers were always available and accessible through email or during office hours.

Mixed Like a Blender

Arizona State is as it says, one of the most diverse college campuses in the United States. You rarely, if ever, run into the same people day to day. Collectively the guys are either the stereotype nerd and the others are gym guys-they love building their muscles. The girls meanwhile are book nerds on one hand, or the party scene type.

Music

I love the music program at ASU. The people are very nice and most of the professors are great. (You just get those few theory teachers that can be a bit difficult.) Tip: Make an older friend FAST. They will show you the ins and outs of the school. Some things are not very clear and you will need help like I did! :)

ASU Is Epic

There are so many ways to participate in sports, whether it is the actual team, an intramural, or a local club. There is an ultimate frisbee team, a badmitten club,and so much more. The SRC offers raquetball and courts and lawns to do so much. It is hard not to get active in something on campus. Also, the proclaimed teams of ASU provide amazing games and entertainment. This year the football team is doing awesome against some pretty good teams. ASU is serious about football, and we show it by going all out every gameday.

Worst Parking Ever

Everyone complains about the parking because it's expensive and inconvenient. The only lot affordable is Lot 59 and it's all the way across campus. There is no where to park within a mile radius from the school, and on campus be prepared to walk... a lot. The Flash buses are a big help though they are pretty slow. It's probably easier if you live on campus to not have a car.

Mill Avenue

The night life here is the highlight of the school. Mill Avenue gets a lot of attention and tons of people go out at night. However, if you are underage you basically can't do anything which is a bit of a bummer.

It's Practically NYC on Campus!

The diversity on this campus is absolutely crazy. There are people from almost every country, and they are all friendly.

Trouble Is Trouble

The police aren't stupid around here, they know 90% of the kids walking around are either high or drunk but if they can't tell, they won't stop you. Just don't be stupid if you are going to do any partying or else your just asking to get in trouble. And getting in trouble is not fun, they are extremely strict on underage drinking and if you are caught with drugs as well. I've seen way too many people being chased around campus because they get caught all the time.

Parking Downtown

It would help to have a car to go to other campuses or other parts of Phoenix. The downtown campus is very small and together. Prices are very expensive for a parking pass.

Hard Work

civil engineering major. so far profesors for the lower division classes are alright but ive heard good stuff bout upper division ones

Awesome

Mill Ave. is where to go if you are 21+, if not then it sucks to be you. But there are also plenty of house parties which are generally much more awesome than the clubs and bars. But with the assortment of girls in the area there is no going wrong.

Culturally Deficient

This is a very large university and with that comes many different cultures. Yet, the reprentation in campus life seems to be lacking. When you step onto the campus, there is a feeling of uniformity. There are many parties but no diversity in most of them. One type of music and the same types of guys. Not very fun if you like diversity.

Girls Fit the Reputation

The girls are what one would expect from Arizona State: hot and dumb. And while many of them are party girls, there are a select few whom spent time studying. The guys mainly consist of jocks.

Not Very Challenging

I'm in the film making practices program and I have found that this major is much easier than many of the other ones. The classes take very little effort, with many of the tests being too easy.

Diversity=ASU

ASU accepts ALL PEOPLE! That is why ASU is so amazing: we accept anybody, are extremely diverse, and we fully encourage you to be yourself :)

Very Nice

There are always plenty of things to do around campus, there is no such thing as being bored at ASU

Very Great Crowd

The women are very beautiful at ASU. I don't pay attention to the guys, but the women are definitely interesting and fun-loving.

Not Much to Say About Greeks

The Greek system at ASU is weak. They are not allowed to have the traditional housing, thus they live in a dorm together with the symbol of their fraternity on the outside wall. If you want to party, you do not have to join the Greek system to do it at ASU. Parties are plenty, beer comes by the kegs, and the security on campus is easy to win over if not run away from.

ASU Is No Longer a Party School

Despite Arizona State's bad rap as a cake school the programs they offer is specific degrees are really good. They incorporate internships into your academic life so that almost no one graduates without having served an internship somewhere. It's up to the student to take advantage of everything that is offered, but everyday fun activities are sponsored and if you hang around the dorms on move-in day there's a chance of scoring free pizza and personal grooming supplies. Also, it's in the heart of Tempe which means there's a ton of restaurants and bars/clubs within walking distance of school.

Diversity on Campus

There is a decent amount of diversity on campus. A lot of different races and people of economic backgrounds. Definitely a lot of people with different religions and sexual orientation.
