Arizona State University-Tempe Top Questions

It's fairly justifiable that it's a party school, but that's because there's so many student which also explains why it's an easy school to get into. However it is also very succesful academically and depending on your major it can be very hard. I was a bioengineer and the degree required an insane dedication with ridiculous hours in order to finally finish, especially the final design class. I enjoy the party school atmosphere as it helped me escape when I needed to from my academics.

Somewhat. There are a lot of smart people on the west side of campus. So even though we joke about it I wouldn't say they're less intelligent. They just have a different skill set. We are still a party school with a lot of clubs around and drinking. House parties are all but gone due to fairly recent laws. We do have the best looking girls. Just go to the west side of campus. I would even go so far as to say that the east side of campus has some of the best looking engineering girls, called "engineering pretty." Of course the best looking engineering girls are in the softer engineering sciences, Computer Science, Biology, and Industrial Engineering, even some in Chemical Engineering.

In general, yes. Unfortunately. This seems to be a result of the lack of minimum requirements for admission. No SAT? No problem! All you have to have is some form of high school diploma and money to pay tuition.

somewhat yes, I had this girl at my high school that barely graduated but then got into ASU.

While ASU does have it's share of partying, there is a lot of serious students here. Most of the classes aren't easy and most drop out of ASU their freshman year because they think that they don't have to study.
