Awesome school

U of A is really an all-around awesome school. We have some of the best sports in the nation... basketball had one of the greatest coaches of all-time... he led us to a national title in 1997... football is definitely on the rise. Baseball is ranked perennially. Softball seems to win the national championship every year.

Gotta Love the Sun

Every morning I wake up knowing it is going to be sunny outside. Minus the ocean this place is paradise. I will say it gets extremely hot during the summer, which is okay because school isn't in session then. But falls are beautiful...when its snowing in Montana we're still chillin' in the sun down here.

Diversity in a Social Crowd

The student population is very diverse. with twenty-one resident hall buildings, the University of Arizona is much like a vibrant country with twenty-one different states and many students are proud to be a part of their dorms. However, during sporting events, such as a home game of football, every student wears the school colors and their is no difference among students. In a social sense, there's a little bit of everyone here, from snobby rich kids, to breaths of fresh air. If one is acts in accordance to their personality and does not condescend towards others, than that person will become very well known and "popular", considering such a person becomes involved with school activities. The students all have their own styles; there is no shortage of attractive females or males here, and if that isn't enough for a reviewer, there are multiple parties almost everyday in at least a third of the residence halls. There is a social life if you create a network from oneself. If anyone wants to go to college and be successful, there is one rule that must be followed: Be yourself and others will trust you; Be compassionate towards others and they will return the favor.
