University of Arizona Top Questions

The school places a much greater emphasis on research and related activities than other schools. We're one of the best research universities in the nation as rated by the National Science Foundation, and while that rating is largely based on stuff done by professors and graduate students, I think it extends to undergrad students as well. In a lot of different disciplines, you can see the connections between the two levels that really help the undergrads and that definitely comes from the importance that Arizona places on research.

One unique fact about the University of Arizona is the openess of the students and instructors.

At other schools I considered, there seemed to be a focus on the surrounding city and away from the academic experience. This is not the case at the University of Arizona, however. The University of Arizona is located in Tucson, a city that is proud of its university and shows its support and commitment in a variety of areas. Local and national companies offer interships to students and seek out graduates from my school and athletic programs at UA enjoy strong support from the community and student body alike.

I have really enjoyed attending University of Arizona South because of the online classes that are offered, local bookstore, and counselors who are always available to answer many of my questions. University of Arizona South has a clean, quiet and comfortable campus which makes it easier for me to navigate around and locate my classrooms.

Our school, overall, is a great school in the scientific field. We are the only school that NASA has given the consent to send an abject to outer space, which in this case is the ingenous spacecar, "The Phoenix Mars Lander". It is really scienifically and technologically advanced.

Science, Science, Science. The science is excellent which is why I am attending this university

I think that the most unique thing about our school is the SALT center, where people with learning disabilities can get tutoring and advising. I believe it is the best center of its kind in the nation and it is a very big plus for people who have disabilities. A student can have their own advisor in addition to their academic advisor for their major, which they meet with every week. The tutors there are also very good and helpful.

I would say that the thing unique about the University of Arizona is the campus, because the brick buildings and the maintained vegitation compliment eachother quite nicely. There are several places of pure beauty in which I take time out of my way to walk by. I absolutely love walking around campus and finding more abstract things to look at.

The University of Arizona has one of the lowest tuition rates across the country for both in-state and out-of-state students; thus many people around the nation attend the UA.
