About the Arizona State University (ASU)
Arizona State University (commonly referred to as ASU or Arizona State) is a national space-grant institution and public metropolitan research university located in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area of the U.S. state of Arizona and is the largest public university in the United States by enrollment. Founded in 1885 as the Tempe Normal School for the Arizona Territory, the school came under control of the Arizona Board of Regents in 1945 and was renamed Arizona State College. A 1958 statewide ballot measure gave the university its present name. In 1994 ASU was classified as a Research I institute; thus, making Arizona State one of the newest major research universities (public or private) in the nation. The mission of the university is to create a model of the “New American University” that recognizes “inclusion, rather than exclusion” as a measure of success.
ASU awards bachelors, masters, and doctoral degrees, and is broadly organized into 16 colleges and schools spread across four campuses: the original Tempe campus, the West campus in northwest Phoenix, the Polytechnic campus in eastern Mesa, and the Downtown Phoenix campus. All four campuses are accredited as a single institution by the Higher Learning Commission. The University is categorized as a Research University with very high research activity (RU/VH) as reported by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, with a research expenditure of $385 million in 2012. Arizona State is one of the appointed members of the Universities Research Association, a consortium of 86 leading research-oriented universities.

Questions
애리조나주립대 입학을 위한 어학연수
By Charley [2015-04-22 16:17:19]
1. AECP 프로그람을 이수하면 애리조나 주립대학에 입학할 수 있습니까?
-> 네 조건부 입학이 가능합니다.
2. AECP의 1개 새션이 1레벨을 마치기 위한 기간(8주)이며 6개 레벨로 되어있으면 6개 베벨을 이수하기 위하여 48주 이후 입학이 가능합니까?
-> 한국학생분들의 경우에는 레벨 테스트로 대게 2-3 레벨로 배정이 되시며 수업 종료 후 다시 레벨 테스트로 빠르게 레벨을 올리시는 것이 가능합니다.
대학교에서 운영하는 어학원이다보니 도서관이나 카페테리아 등 대학 내 시설을 자유롭게 이용할 수 있어서 좋았습니다. 무엇보다 도서관을 이용할 수 있다는 게 좋았고요. 학내 클럽도 원하면 가입해서 어학당 외 친구들도 사귈 수 있다는 것도 큰 장점이었네요. 사막지역이어서 우리나라와는 완전히 다른 기후를 가지고 있습니다. 여름에 습하진 않은데 햇살이 엄청 따가워요. 그 부분만 빼면 경관도 아름답고 즐길거리도 많아서 꽤 훌륭한 곳입니다.
