I’m looking for college and considering UofA as one of them, can anyone please tell me more about it?

I’d like to know more about things like:

1. Classes. Is it easy to register for classes or they just get filled up too early? How are the profs, good teachers, available for students or not? Do we get insane workloads (homeworks), I prefer classes that challenge in quality, not quantity. Are the admins helpful or just available when we write the check?

2. Are the dorms any good on your campus or they simply suck? If apartment is a better choice is it easy to find a decent one? Also please suggest a dorm if you can. Any dorm that isnt run-down, or way too quiet.

3. What about the surrounding town. are the residents friendly? Or whether its safe or not over there. One more thing, any decent access to supermarkets, diners, movies, etc?

4. Its campus life. Are the students friendly towards foreigners and one another? What about social scenes, do they party all the time or never party at all? Not a party animal, but prefer places with social life.

5. Anything more, unsual, or any concerns I should know about?

Also, is it true that ASU is the better choice for engineering and architecture? And one last, how hot can it get there in Tucson?

If you’re willing to tell me more, feel free to respond. Any infos appreciated.
