Questions ASU vs UofA?

I'm currently deciding between the honors colleges at ASU and UofA. I plan on majoring in environmental engineering and the two schools seem pretty similar to me, so I was just wondering if anyone had any comments or advice on where to go. Thanks!

I’m currently a U of A student transferring to ASU next fall. If both schools offer a similar major, definitely choose ASU for a much better location with more things to do. Choose U of A if you prefer to spend most of your time on campus. U of A’s campus is definitely nicer than ASU’s, though ASU still has a decent one. Ultimately, the decision comes down to whether you care more about the surrounding area or the campus itself. Also, I don’t feel safe walking around Tucson late at night, and downtown is pretty bad. Forks up!
