What are your general comments?

"I really enjoyed myself, and Arizona is now my second choice of schools. The area is more rural than I'm used to, but it is still very close to a huge city, and the city the school is in has nearly 1 million people all around it. I think it would be a nice change of pace to study somewhere where there isn't much traffic and where you can rest in the sunshine." Report Response
