University of Arizona Top Questions

My college experience has been the most stressful process I have ever experienced but It has definitly helped me grow up, find my priorities, and showed me what life is going to be like when im on my own. Its not easy and you have to work hard with lots of persistance. College has been valuble because I am constantly learning something weather is be in the class or outside, its a lifttime experience that I will never forget.

Before I enrolled at the University of Arizona I didn't want to go there. It wasn't until I moved in that I began to love the school I now call my home. I loved being part of one of the many honoraries on campus and meeting so many people from different states and nations around the world. Living in the dorms were fun and I made some of the best friends I've ever had attending the many resident life events and hall council socials. The food options are numerous on campus and include many healthy options. I've loved the programs and services ASUA (Associated Students of the University of Arizona) has put on like SafeRide (which drives students 2 miles around the perimeter of campus at night for free), many financial aid workshops, and $3 dollar lunch Wednesdays! I feel like the school wants me to succeed, both socially and educationally. The "Think Tank" a free tutoring service for UA students helped me tremendously survive my first semester of Calculus at a university. I've thoroughly enjoyed my time here at the University of Arizona and encourage anyone looking for a great school to consider UofA!

Not only am I learning material that will be helpful for my pharmacy career, but I'm learning more about life as well. My time management, responsibility, and critical thinking have improved, and those qualities will definitely be helpful later on in life.

My favorite part of college has to be vast amount of people you get to meet. College really changed me and how I view the world around me. It also makes a person more self-sufficient and responsible. I've learned how to be more involved in every aspect of my education from checking my records to updating my required courses. College is valuable in a growing world. The world is continuously advancing causing its workforce to do the same, and this is where college degrees come in as well as college life. College shapes a person both intellectually as well as personally and teaches not only the lessons of a specific career, but also lessons about life, achievement, failure, and the good that comes out of hardwork.

My college experience has been great thus far. Some of the things that have gotten me a great college experience is finding my interests and finding my group of friends. My college experience is greatly dependent upon finding my interests. I am a psychology major which has made my college experience very exiciting. In my experience I have found other interests throughout my journey such as Mexican American Studies and Spanish so much so I have made them my minors. Another factor that has contributed to a great experience is being part of The Interested Ladies of Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority Inc. These group of ladies have grown into being my bestfriends and people that I will always be able to count on. I hope that other people who look into college will consider UA because the great variety of clubs and sororities/fraternities the campus has to offer. Overall the UA campus makes the college experience very valuable because it offers alot of opportunities to grow as a person. The UA is a place where anyone can receive a valubale education.

College has shown me a bit more of what life is like. You are expected to take car of yourself. Nobody is going to babysit you.

Attending college has really broadened my view on the world. Being put in situations such as living with a complete stranger really opens your eyes to see the world differently. It has really made me appreciate my upbringing as well since now I am able to interact with people of all different walks of life. Coming to college all on my own really made me become very independent and I learned how to stand up for myself and learn about who I am. Also attending college promises me a future that I have always dreamed of, which is to be successful and happy.

The most value lesson I've attained at the UA has been my self exploration, secondary to my tolerance of others. Attendance of any university would more than likely lead to this outcome though. Your character goes through a bildunsroman, which is a literature term I learned back in high school. It's about the protagonist or main character of the story growing and building. This has been the theme of my college experience. I have learned what I am capable of and how to relate to someone instead of noting what differences there are between us.

College has been a great experience where I have a lot of close friends and been able to enjoy being on my own. It has been valuable to attend because I have experienced a lot of new things since coming to school.; I have studied abroad twice, paid my own bills, lived with three different girls (one each year) and had a lot of fun with each of them. I have taken classes I ever thought I would take and learned what I really enjoy doing. College has been a great experience and when I graduate I will be sad that my time here is over and happy that I spent it here at the University of Arizona making memories that I will cherish.

I have not only expanded my academic knowledge, but more importantly, I have learned a lot about myself. At the UA I have been exposed to all sorts of exerperiences and a wide range of people with different backgrounds and ideas that are willing to share them. These encounters and experiences have really broaden my appreciation of my friends and family. Through the people I have encountered on campus I have had time to self-reflect and really learn who I am and what makes me passionate. I have also created a connection to the campus and understand what it means to really have school spirit. It makes it easy when people around you are so eager and excited to go to the UA.
