Why choose ASU?
Quality + flexibility
ASU ranks #5 in the U.S. for undergraduate education among public universities. You’re admitted into your program from day one and can change it or add a concurrent degree, minor or certificate.
More opportunties
At ASU, you get more: more opportunities for internships, industry partnerships, undergraduate research and study abroad — experiences that shine on a resume or graduate school application.
Career success
The entire ASU student experience is a career ecosystem. Everything you do here — leading a club, working an on-campus job — builds skills to prepare you for an outstanding career.
Affordability
ASU offers a highly competitive tuition rate and scholarship opportunities. Most students are eligible for some form of financial aid no matter what their family's income.
The benefits of living in metro Phoenix
Metro Phoenix, home to ASU’s four main campuses, is one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S. and is full of big opportunities. As an ASU student, you’ll have access to internships and industry partners so you can start getting practical experience in your field of study while you’re still a student. These are opportunities you just can’t find in smaller cities. And depending which campus you’re on, you’re as little as 10 to 30 minutes away from Sky Harbor International Airport — a launchpad to the entire world.
