University of Arizona Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Christiana

The quality of education is very good, as well as the research opportunities. I obtained a research position within my department, and I feel that I am learning more there than I do in a classroom. Most of the professors here are high quality as well.

I love all the different opportutnitiest that the UofA offered, I became an Officer in the Air Force cause of them:-)

The best aspect of the University of Arizona is the amount to interaction and exposure the students have to other majors, religions, ideas and lifestyles, just through the events held on a daily basis.

I think that the best thing about the school is the campus itself. I love the way that it is set up (so it's wasy to get to all of your classes). It is easy to walk to most of the buildings on campus, but if you can't get to one on time there are plenty of places to put bikes, and even shuttles that run to various points around campus. I also like that though we are in the desert, we have lots of trees on campus, and we're just a short drive from the mountains.

The best thing about the University of Arizona, in my opinion, is it's mix of old and new. I don't just mean the people-although I have had classes with middle aged and young people -it's in the buildings. Most people who grew up in Tucson just wanted to get away, but I couldn't resist the millions of red bricks that have been here since the school started, based on agriculture, in the 1800's. All you have to do is turn the corner and there are "new and improved" sections of the school.

I don’t think I can pick just one thing that is the best thing about my school because the school over all is awesome. The sports, the atmosphere of the campus and most all the teachers are helpful and resourceful in their topic are all great things about my school. There is always something to do when you attend the University of Arizona. If I had to pick the best thing about my school I would have to say the liveliness of the campus.

The University of Arizona offers a very diverse population of students. There is no major ethnic majority here and people come from all different walks of life. Myself, being a freshmen, has yet to explore all what the university has to offer, but my experiences here hold true value to me. As a member of the Blue Chip Organization at the University of Arizona, I believe this prestigious four year program gives the students at the UofA a chance to express their leadership ideas and roles to better the university. This in turn is what seperates the UofA among many.

Nicole

I believe that the professors and the science department are the best things about the University of Arizona. I am a science major and all of the professors I have had, in science and non-science courses are very genuine and seem to care a lot about the success of their students. There are numerous resources offered to students to improve their understanding of the courses they teach as well as the fact that the create many flexible office hours in which to personally interact with the students.

Ashley

The amount of prospective students and professional instructors helps the environment in which other students learn and discover hidden passions unforeseen. Engaging with professors from the industry not only improves the experience of the students academically but also “realistically.” Within the first few classes of their field of study, students can clearly understand what to expect from their prospective fields in the actual workforce. Students are forced to do internships and engage in hands-on activities and research for their field. The professors have endearing devotion to their class topics allowing students the maximum amplitude to learn.

Everything is really great here! They have classes for everyone-- the hard working students, the students who just want an A, etc. The social life and weather here are great too. Joining greek life ensures that you will have something to do every weekend :)
