Hi guys, I was wondering about the pros and cons of ASU, I really want to apply but my mom said she won’t pay for it. She says I shouldn’t go there when I have so many options in my home state of California. I want to apply to ASU because it is a good school that in the recent past has performed incredibly well and it would be a viable safety school for me since I meet the automatic admission criteria. Not to mention they give OOS students a very good amount of merit aid. Can someone help me quell my mother’s fears about ASU?
