Arizona State University (ASU) is a comprehensive public research university, measured not by whom it excludes, but by whom it includes and how they succeed; advancing research and discovery of public value; and assuming fundamental responsibility for the economic, social, cultural, and overall health of the communities it serves.
From a humble beginning, and through a series of name changes that led to a 1958 vote of the people and a 2-to-1 margin of victory for the advancement of Arizona State College to Arizona State University, ASU’s century-plus trajectory has led to its being recognized as the “most innovative” university in the country by U.S. News & World Report – five years in a row.
ASU is committed to helping students create success – not just academically, but throughout their lives. Learning to thrive means access to an education that inspires students to become universal learners, capable of learning anything at any time: during their time in classrooms, laboratories, and on campus, as well as after graduation.
ASU is located in the metro Phoenix area of Arizona, in the southwest region of the United States. The university is about a six-hour drive (or one-hour flight) from Los Angeles and five hours (or 50-minute flight) from Las Vegas.
