Academic Rigor online course are harder because the course has been condensed to eight weeks, therefore, it requires much more discipline and better study habits.
Tips for prospective students online university courses require discipline and good study habits to achieve success, especially if you are taking more than one course at a time.
In three sentences i am currently working full time, so the online courses are excellent because of their flexible schedule. the classes are shorter in duration, so you can complete you degree much faster than going to courses on campus. the course selection and availability is excellent, preventing you from having to wait long periods to take required classes.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Not on campus so I can't speak to this.
Greek Life Not on campus so I can't speak to this.
Clubs and Activities I'm not on campus so can't speak to this, but there are some clubs you can still participate in online.

Academic Rigor 90% of my courses have been very rigorous. Generally a lot of reading, discussion boards, and papers. Quizzes vary depending on the type of course.
Tips for prospective students Work with your advisor from the beginning to map out everything you need to complete in time! There are good offerings but not everything online is available to online students so you need to plan appropriately to design the degree you want.
In three sentences I am a History major and the breadth and depth available online is impressive. I have received good instruction and good contact with faculty. Overall, the quality of instruction is very rigorous.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students The online program is great for any circumstance. People with families or work full time or both!
Bang for the buck Attending classes online saves you a huge amount! You don't have to factor in room and board at all. All you pay for is tuition for classes and some university fees. It is the same classes for a fraction of the price! Also, out of state students get the in state tuition price!
Academic Rigor Since the online program is through the actual accredited Arizona State University, you get the same teachers and classes that the students who attend class on campus have.
Tips for prospective students Take advantage of all the resources on ASU online and read everything before applying and after being accepted. Everything is laid out in a very easy to read and understand format.
In three sentences Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Very budget friendly. Easy to use online program.

Dorm Life Do not live in the dorms.
Academic Rigor I have not started classes yet as school starts in late August.
Tips for prospective students If you are registering online make sure that you are constantly checking your emails. Online advisers are busy and answer questions at odd times of the day. In addition, be patient, you are not the only student emailing the advisor.
In three sentences I have been in contact with my advisor online and via phone. In addition I have been to the campus and have found it to be user friendly. The staff were very helpful and eager to answer all my questions and concerns.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Being an online student, campus safety is beyond my line of sight.
Greek Life Once fully indoctrinated into the school, I will join the National Honor Society. I am abstaining from doing so now to give myself time to fully acclimate to the university and my academic workload.
Clubs and Activities I am actively involved in Future Teachers of America: an organization dedicated to the improvement of teaching and mentoring techniques. In addition, as a member of the honor roll section, I volunteer fifteen hours a month to various causes including, animal rescue, cancer research, feeding the homeless and clothing drives. Future Teachers of America is a great way to invest in yourself, the member community and those in need. I am also a member of the American Marketing Association. This club focuses on business process, promotional and marketing excellence. As a member, I actively engage in quorums where the hot topics of the day are discussed and the output eventually becomes a white paper. This organization has taught me a great deal which I hope to utilize once my post-secondary teaching career begins.
Great for these types of students If you are dedicated to academia and embrace the rigor of a top-notch university, Arizona State may be a great fit. In addition to the academic challenge, you will find a staff, from academic advisers to financial aid, that are eager and responsive. In my opinion, ASU is an excellent learning experience.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus As an online student, I am not privy to traditions on the local campuses.
Bang for the buck Based on the upfront research I have conducted, ASU is provides an elite qualty of education. US News & World Report placed the online program in the top fifteen in the nation: a most impressive statistic. In addition, the instructors are real subject matter experts that are dedicated to your success.
What to do for fun A great outlet for students is the opportunity to collaborate with one another inside the online classroom environment. In addition, friendly banter is allowed and gives you the ability to really get to know your academic peers.
Food and Dining I am an out-of-state student
Dorm Life I am a full time online student
Academic Rigor Unlike some other online educational institutions, Arizona State University challenges you through numerous media opportunities. Included are video lectures, heavy reading, online research, all in a compressed 7.5 week per session format. When beginning at Arizona State, I recommend taking the minimum number of mandated credits. This will help you understand how to manage time and organization most effectively.
Tips for prospective students 1. If you are transferring in, stay on top of the transcript requests you need from previous schools. I had difficulty with one institution that required three separate request before my transcripts were finally sent. 2. Get to know the staff. They are your lifeline when preparing to attend ASU. 3. Take care of processing as much of the required documentation early. Financial aid can take a few weeks, for example, to be processed.
In three sentences The academic adviser's do an excellent job guiding you through the admissions process. The Financial Aid Department is very accessible for online students such as myself. The thorough degree of information provided on the website was one of the primary reasons I chose ASU.

Food and Dining Mill Ave, near campus has fantastic dining.
Dorm Life Cannot answer do not attend in person.
Tips for prospective students Make sure to check into the professors prior to taking course. Personally have had experiences with professors who are learning how to run an online course, which becomes difficult on clarity.
In three sentences Potentially a great experience, with the right professors. Great for those who work and cannot attend school everyday. However, not applicable for the same financial aid assistance like the Barack Obama scholarship that students who attend in person are.

Dorm Life Since I do not live in the dorms, I can't say!
Academic Rigor ASU Online is extremely rigorous. The amount of reading each week is slightly insane, but the level of learning you take from it is unmatched by other online schools.
Tips for prospective students Make sure you are prepared to work extremely hard. Arizona State University Online is not like other online schools; the standard and quality expected from students at ASU is much higher than any other online school I have attended.
In three sentences Arizona State University online is a wonderful and interactive learning environment. All of the teachers have been extremely helpful and involved, not to mention exceptionally kind. I love Arizona State University Online and it has been the best decision in my college career I have made thus far.

Academic Rigor I don't think ASU is a difficult university, although some classes can be more challenging than others.
Tips for prospective students Stay on track and manage your time. It is easy to get straight A's if you just focus and turn in the work!
In three sentences I have attended ASU, online campus, for the past year and a half and I absolutely love it! It has been so convenient seeing as how I work full-time and have a family.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students ASU online is perfect for stay at home parents, those who work either full or part time, or anyone who wants to attend an amazing tier 1 college without having to pick up and move to Arizona.
Bang for the buck This is a top 100, tier 1 university. The price is extremely affordable, they have so many things in place to really help students excel in their classes, and they provide you with a very high quality education.
Food and Dining I am an online student so I cant speak to their food and dining.
Dorm Life I am an online student, so I cant speak to dorm life.
Academic Rigor Make sure you are prepared to study, study, study. This is a top 100, tier 1 university, so you will be doing A LOT of work that requires study, research, and more study. But it's a rewarding and challenging experience that you will love.
Tips for prospective students Make sure you are prepared to study, study, study. This is a top 100, tier 1 university, so you will be doing A LOT of work that requires study, research, and more study. But it's a rewarding and challenging experience that you will love.

Categories Comments Dorm Life This isn't applicable in my case, but I've seen the dorms and they are nice.
Academic Rigor The class I took was slightly challenging, but only because it was condensed into a six week course. So I just focused on each week at a time and this made everything go smoothly.
Tips for prospective students Be sure to communicate as much as possible with the Professor so you know what is going on. Don't stress about the workload and make a schedule for yourself so you can get the work done you need as you go through the course. Look at all of the information you need so that way, you're prepared and don't be afraid to ask questions.
In three sentences So far, I have enjoyed ASU Online as it gives me flexibility in my schedule. Because of work, family, and where I live, going to Phoenix for classes is hard and ASU Online gives me everything I need in order to be a part of a classroom environment. I have really enjoyed the class I am taking and I am looking forward to the Fall.

Categories Comments Campus Safety The school seems to be safe because you can receive alerts via email or text of any fire, gas leaks, etc. Campus security patrols and you can call them at their number that is advertised on campus. Safety is a main concern and is controlled.
Greek Life I don't know much about fraternities or sororities,but ASU has them.
Clubs and Activities Intramural sports, politics, christian clubs, alumni membership, career expos,etc.
Great for these types of students Online classes are great for students that are working and have families, or even busy lives.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The financial aid office is located in a weird spot on the Polytechnic campus of ASU. It is not what would be expected, since the cashier office and parking office are located off campus. Financial Aid is a building right of the library on campus, so that's weird.
Bang for the buck Try to buy books used. If you are really lucky sites like Amazon or other students will sell text books cheap. If none of that works, rent your books. Renting saves money. Lastly, see if the books are at the library either in person or online texts.
What to do for fun Fun things to do are usually provided on poster boards around campus whether it is sports,concerts, theatre. There is always something going on. There is also a college paper that lists events that are happening all over town.
Food and Dining Food was great at ASU. It seems their burgers are less greasy than fast food, but meals can get expensive.
Dorm Life I did not live on a dorm, so I really cannot elaborate on what it is like.
Academic Rigor Most of the classes I have taken online have been moderate level difficulty. The main objective is to be organized, and attentive to due dates of assignments.
Tips for prospective students Always check blackboard information online with the college of attendance for upcoming assignments and keep track by writing down dates in calendar. Don't be afraid to email teachers with questions on assignments online.
In three sentences It's a great program for working students that do not have a lot of time to spend for in class instruction. I enjoyed taking classes at my own pace and having a calendar with due dates online. The one to one interaction with professors and students through email has been helpful with the classes provided online.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students If you don't think dorm life is for you, or you'd rather not spend the extra money, ASU Online is a really great alternative.
What to do for fun Do whatever you normally do! As for meeting new people, there is an online app/community for students via Facebook, but it depends on if anybody lives near you.
Food and Dining This is pretty much up to you... haha.
Dorm Life There is no dorm life! Everything is from home or wherever you chose to go online for your classes.
Academic Rigor I have attended other universities before transferring to ASU Online and the rigor is the same level.
Tips for prospective students Prepare to become very organized! Online classes are split into two sections per semester so it's a bit more fast paced than a traditional class. The benefit of this is getting more classes done in a semester than you'd be able to normally.
In three sentences ASU Online is perfect for students of any age who work or travel constantly. You get a quality education as if you were attending a class in person. Everything is extremely flexible and you can access your classes anywhere!

Categories Comments Bang for the buck I was a transfer from a college here in San Francisco, and there was almost a $300 drop in per unit tuition rates. It was a no brainer!
Food and Dining I've never tasted anything from there.
Dorm Life I don't live on-campus.
Academic Rigor Whether or not you decide to do the accelerated learning program (2 classes at 7.5 weeks twice a semester) or the Standard 4 class all semester is up to you. But you have to stay on top of it all because you're online and it's all up to you!
Tips for prospective students You must stay motivated in order to be an online student. It's not for everyone, but for those who are able, the results are rewarding. It also requires the student to stay on top just a little more than in-class classes.
In three sentences I absolutely believe that Arizona State University's Online program is unmatched anywhere in the country. I am thrilled with my current education possibilities!

Categories Comments Campus Safety Campus security is always just around the corner. The campus police are able to answer calls at any point around campus within minutes. There are conveniently located emergency stations everywhere around campus that provide a convenient means of summoning emergency responders.
Greek Life I am not certain.
Clubs and Activities There are always upbeat events that are hosted by different clubs around the campus. There are a wide range of clubs that can be joined.
Great for these types of students Great for all types! Technology, Art, Business and many other students are all welcome and would feel at home in this community.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The campus hosts many university pride days and it's popular to go support the Sun Devil team at the Sun Devil Stadium downtown!
Bang for the buck A very fun, upbeat campus!
What to do for fun There are many options when it comes to ASU. The Phoenix area is a close metropolitan city surrounded by mountains. For those interested in the city, there are multiple options for large shopping, dining and entertainment centers. For the sportsman, there are the mountains which show off the desert beauty. If you don't like the desert, then pine forests are an hour and a half away.
Food and Dining Lots of good food! ASU has many options when it comes to food and dining. There are usually many options as well.
Dorm Life From what I have seen (which isn't much), dorm life seems pretty good. The dorms are generally conveniently located and have a number of options.
Academic Rigor The class will probably be somewhat rigorous, but not extreme!
Tips for prospective students Read the books! The readings and (sometimes) the video lectures will be your only means of learning. There is not much in-class, face-to-face time with the teacher that enables you to get questions resolved quickly. If you send an email, teachers will often answer back very quickly, but it does not take the place of conversing with the teacher. Keep in touch with the system to see all of the announcements!
In three sentences This college is great for those who are trying to get a degree while working full time due to the flexible schedule and ease of access. Be prepared to put in a good deal of work and reading; teachers often have to make up for class times by inserting video, audio and power point lectures to supplement the chapters. Anyone who tries it will probably be on the computer for long periods, but overall it's a great way to go!

Categories Comments Bang for the buck Online tuition and fees are commensurate with other online colleges and it cost the same for in or out of state students.
Academic Rigor The shortened class meeting times make it more intense than attending on campus.
Tips for prospective students If you plan on attending as online student suggest you plan on a minimum of 1 1/2 to 3 hours per day per class. Online classes meet for 7 1/2 weeks so it is a fairly intense schedule.
In three sentences I am an online student working on my BA Political Science as an online student. High praise for student advisor, success coach and all that have assisted me with enrolling, financial aid, classes to take. Most of all I love all the choices available for different classes in my major.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Don't go out at night. There is a Police Hotline you can call, and they will walk with you to your car or wherever you need to go. They care for your safety!
Greek Life Supposedly it is great, and when you ask for information they hunt you down... they WANT YOU IN GREEK LIFE!
Clubs and Activities ASU West has tons... the Young Life club is awesome!
Great for these types of students Fun, active students who plan on going to the games!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus PAINTING THE A ON A MOUNTAIN!!! That is in Tempe.
Bang for the buck In the Education major, you are definitely getting what you pay for.
What to do for fun There are TONS of clubs and Intramural sports... sign up to play, or just come to cheer them on!
Food and Dining West Campus has gotten better over the year, and they are continuing to add on!
Dorm Life I think it depends on what campus you live on and how much you are willing to pay.
Academic Rigor My classes were difficult, but that is because I chose them. You can easily find out who the pushovers are where professors are concerned, but seriously it is not worth it. Challenge yourself and the good professors (in the hard classes) will be there for you!
Tips for prospective students Do not bring your computer to class unless it is necessary (for an online lab, etc). They distract more than help. Write down your notes with a pencil and paper, then review them on the shuttle!
In three sentences ASU has GREAT tech support. Their programs (specifically in Elementary, Secondary, Preschool and Special) are fantastic. Parking is not great, but when you go to such a large University, that is expected.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Online is great for full time workers an/or full time parents. I have three kids any I am still able to go to school full time. The flexibility of the online courses makes this possible.
Bang for the buck Universities are defiantly more expensive than community colleges, but I enjoy the fact that the classes are challenging. The price is well worth the knowledge being obtained.
Food and Dining Again I couldn't really honestly say because I am an online student.
Dorm Life I gave it five stars because I am sure it is great. I am an online student and I live in CA so I really wouldn't be able to give an accurate rating.
Academic Rigor The classes are challenging you defiantly need to stay on a scheduled or you will have a hard time keeping up and earning a good grade.
Tips for prospective students I would recommend doing a transfer program at a community college first. Doing so will save you thousands.
In three sentences It is a great school. The online classes are challenging, but very convenient. The faculty all seem very qualified and not to one sided, which is good.

Food and Dining I don't attend school on campus I wouldn't know. However there's many places surrounding ASU that are good!
Dorm Life I don't live in a dorm I live off campus.
Academic Rigor Doing online classes is different, there has to be more focus but it's great because you go on your pace. You have to push yourself to excel because there's nobody reminding you of the due dates.
Tips for prospective students It is a great way to go to school if you don't have the time to go to campus classes.
