-Colleges in Arizona-?

Nov 25

sorry for such a general question.
I’m poking my head around at colleges and at the moment (as I’m just a sophomore) I’m mainly looking at locations that interest me. I’ve already looked around a lot at schools in California but know relatively nothing about Arizona. What are the best schools? Particularly for a Liberal Arts degree in Journalism, English or History. Is Arizona State "any good"?Any smaller schools? What are the best college towns with cool things to do (art, music scenes etc.)?

Thanks~
no online colleges!
lol, thanks :)

ASU is a huge school. Although they have the renowned Walter Cronkite School of Journalism, you need to be concerned about the quality of education you will be getting at a school with almost 70,000 students. Its in Phoenix/Tempe, the fifth largest city in the country, so don’t worry about not having much to do.

University of Arizona is about 40,000 and has the only medical school in Arizona. It is a much more research-based university, known for its excellent astronomy and aerospace engineering programs (think Mars rovers). Tucson is only about half a million people I think, and you may have trouble finding things to do on the weekend…

Northern Arizona University has a much smaller student population, about 16,000. It is known for having the best education program in the state. Also, it is located in the much smaller, cooler city of Flagstaff. Also, skiing/snowboarding is only a 30 minute drive away :)

Running for Congress, need input on the issues?

I am running for Congress in Arizona, I am a Cardiovascular/Thoracic surgeon and business executive with Morgan Stanley. I went to med school at Harvard and Yale and Princeton respectively for my undergraduate and graduate education in Physics. I am a retired Navy SEAL Officer who served with the elite Special Warfare Development Group (DEVGRU) in Haiti, Grenada and Panama. I am a fiscally conservative Reagan Democrat who is running as a Republican.

-I favor across-the-board tax cuts
-I oppose gay marriage but favor civil unions
-I am pro-life except in cases of rape or the mother’s life being in danger
-I oppose the stimulus
-I oppose teaching intelligent design
-I support the troops
-I support free trade
-I oppose the Public Option

Do physicists really get to perform cardiovascular and thoracic surgery?

You must be older than McCain.

recently i was accepted into the university of arizona. now after already being accepted into my first choice how do i tell arizona that im not interested. other colleges that ive been accepted to have given me the choice to accept or deny admission but arizona doesnt.

Send a postal letter thanking them for admission and telling them that you have decided to attend another university. Do not name the other university. Be sure your name, address, U of A ID number, if any, and the date of the letter are on the letter. Sign the letter. Keep a photocopy of it. Mail the original to U of A.

Congratulations on the admission which you accepted.
