I'm an exchange student coming to ASU this fall. I’m trying to make the most out of this experience so i’m wondering if there is anything particular i should know prior to going. I also was assigned to a shared dorm in Palo Verde West, but I'm now considering moving to an off-campus apartment because an opportunity came up. Since I want to make the most of my exchange, by meeting people, going out, and having a social experience, I'm unsure which option is better. Any advice or insight would help.
