Student Affairs at the Polytechnic campus

Welcome!

We are delighted you are interested in Arizona State University's Polytechnic campus. This new developing campus of ASU began offering classes in l996. In addition to providing an exciting array of academic programs, our small size allows students to be active participants in a unique educational community. Students have the opportunity to make friends with other students, and interact with faculty and staff outside of class. ASU's Polytechnic campus prides itself on being a friendly supportive place.

Campus housing consists of relatively small residence halls, all the halls house no more than 120 or less students, and over 600 houses on campus. These small residence halls encourage students to get to know each other and foster a sense of community. Students are encouraged to participate in the Freshman Year Experience residence hall program during their first year on campus and can choose among other residence halls and houses as they progress toward their chosen degree.

Students at ASU's Polytechnic campus are encouraged to be active participants in campus life. As a new campus you have the opportunity to help us develop the special occasions, events and organizations that will create a sense of campus community. If we do not currently have a student organization or activity that interests you the student affairs staff is available to help you pursue your particular interests. We are very interested in students who distinguish themselves in their academic work and serve as campus student leaders. Our staff will help you develop your leadership potential.

Staff are available to help you with academic, career and financial concerns. ASU's Polytechnic campus students also have access to the expertise of staff on the Tempe Campus of ASU.

We welcome your questions and encourage your taking the time to visit us and see for yourself what we have to offer. Good luck in choosing a college.

Sincerely,

Gary L. McGrath
Dean of Student Affairs
