Something as simple as talking to someone can help you feel better, improve your grades and manage stress.

Biking
ASU is a gold-level Bicycle Friendly University, as designated by the League of American Bicyclists.

⭐ Honors
Barrett, The Honors College at Arizona State University is a selective, residential college that recruits academically outstanding undergraduates across the nation. Named “Best Honors College” in the nation, this residential community has more National Merit Scholars than MIT, Duke, Brown, Stanford or the University of California-Berkeley, and Barrett students benefit from a twelve million dollar endowment used exclusively to support honors students and their projects.
Barret West
A community of scholars housed in a small, liberal-arts atmosphere with a resort-like setting, Barrett West provides talented and motivated students with opportunities to excel and to enrich their university experiences. Honors students at the West campus engage in the entire range of Barrett activities from undertaking the required honors curriculum to participating in specially-designed educational and extra-curricular events. Barrett West also maintains an Alumni Program specifically for its graduates, plus Alumni Mentors to assist current students.
