I would greatly appreciate an answer to any of the following questions. They are mostly directed towards current students but anyone who has an answer is more than welcome.

1. Is the college's social life centered mostly around frats & sororities? I don't wish to be a part of one but i dont want to be a social outcast because of it.

2. How safe is the campus?

3. Is there any kind of camp before their freshman year starts for students who have gotten in and are going there?

4. What is the admissions process like?

5. I know drinking is an issue at every college but will i still have fun if i decide not to drink?

6. I have heard that U of A is really clique-y. Is it difficult to make new friends because everyone sticks together with their old highschool friends?

7. After freshman year do most students move out of the dorms? & is housing off campus decent?

8. How available and helpful are the the professors overall? & how big are class sizes usually?

9. Are most students friendly and outgoing and willing to meet new people?

10. What is there to do at the university?

I know it's a hassle but if you could answer even just 1 of these questions it would be greatly appreciated. & if you have anything else to add feel free. (:
