ASU ruined my life, likely because it is in the armpit of the southwest that has not developed since the 1900s. The cohort I came in with were the worst people I have ever met. Although I was glad to work with the faculty I came in to work with, it was all wahsed over by the crap I had to deal with from shite grad students with little to offer other than petty HS bs. Avoid—there are far better schools with far better funding and Far BETTER FELLOW GRAD STUDENTS—its the ghetto of grad school without the glamour of a first rate uni and the funding of a pac ten or ivy

ASU ruined your life because it is a liberal bureaucratic monopoly masquerading as a university.

Although not all departments are the same, you may find your department cohort to be less than collegial, in both senses of the term. The university seems to cultivate certain mentalities that are less than productive.
