Something that makes Arizona State University unique is the light rail. The light rail is public transportation that connects the Tempe campus with the Phoenix campus. This allows students to take classes at each of the campuses and experience two completely different cities while doing so. Not only is the light rail a benefit to those who ride it, but also to the environment.

Compared to the other two schools that I considered (Cal Poly SLO and University of Nevada Reno [UNR]), I was offered the most financial aid from Arizona State University ($8,000 per year). I am originally from Las Vegas, NV and when I was weighing my options for college in the early part of last year, I noticed that ASU offers a very considerable amount of financial aid to incoming freshman regardless of residency (in-state or out). To me, this is what makes ASU unique because the other two colleges I considered (including in-state UNR) offered less money.

The unique thing in my college is that you can customize your major and take as many minors and classes as you wish. I like that freedom of choice.

ASU is only 30 minutes from where I live and offers far more benefits than the other schools I applied to. Their engineering program is super and the on-campus accomidations are fantastic, even better than I expected when I first checked it out. There are so many different clubs and interships available to engineers, as well as doing independent study projects with teachers. I've gotten to know a few professors and look forward to meeting even more next semester when I get to explore more of the education opportunities on campus.

The most unique aspect found at ASU would be the numerous opportunities offered to each and every student on campus. Whether doing research on biology cells or taking on an internship with the help of the business school, there is something for everyone. When I first arrived on campus I was afraid that there would be no opportunities to travel abroad and practice medicine/nursing in other countries, but I was wrong. ASU has an abundance of counselors to help guide you out into the real world.

The ethnic backgrounds of all the students. It is a wonderful melting pot of religions, races, and ages.

One unique thing about ASU is the number of people who go to school here. There are so many people here, but at the same time there are a lot of oppertunities for small classes. The professors are all very open to undergrads here, and even though there may be 200-300 students in a class, if you try and get to know your professor they will generally be willing to help you and get to know you. The same is true with the advisors here. You get the amenities associated with a big campus, without giving up others.
