As
a transfer student from Embry Riddle (Prescott, AZ) for their
flight program, ASU Polytechnic Campus (aka ASU East) overall is
a nice, quiet campus but if you looking for city
life and things to do over the weekend then you
should look at other ASU campuses especially their Tempe campus.
Also if your looking to get around campus to go
buy food or any other things needed, look elsewhere. Other
than paying for a taxi cab, all you have is
the campus shuttle bus to take you to and from
the main campus (M-F) or Valley Metro bus that comes
every 30-34 mins. Pros:
-Quiet, nice, medium
sized campus. I can actually focus on my school work
without thinking about other things going on.
-So
far, a good flight program and a guaranteed interview with
Mesa airlines
-Food is pretty good, considering transferring from Embry
Riddle (Prescott AZ Campus)
Cons:
-No social life or
even community life what so ever. A day over the
week or even after class is really boring. Everyone keeps
to themselves and it seems over every weekend I'm the
only person walking on campus
-Transportation system is really bad
unless you have a car,
especially over the weekends. The
only option is riding the Valley Metro Bus over the
weekend
-Dorms are ok. Passable.. but when you look from
the outside they look like old military huts converted over
to college rooms with little furniture. Most of the furniture
in my room was old and worn out
-The campus
smell. Every so couple of days you will get this
smell that smells like your living on a farm. Hay,
Manure and cow/horse smell that fills your room with a
bad stench if your not use to it.
