thoughts on UA for ambitious asian first year applicant

hello! i'm applying out of state, but was really interested with UA's scholarship where they give a full ride + more if you get accepted with a 36 ACT.

i really want to capitalize on this, but i heard that Alabama is more racist towards asians and i'll have a hard time, and have also heard of some bad professor experiences towards specifically asians.

i wanted to apply for finance / marketing, and was curious what current people taking the majors at UA thought of the experience! i know rank wise it isn't that high, but ranks don't tell the whole story.

if theres else anything a first year would need to know about UA, it would be awesome to hear! thank you guys so much, hope you have a great day

hi! i've heard from so many people that connections are the most important thing out there. i heard people network at places like "networking events," but i have no idea how to find them. how do / did you guys network, or did the connections naturally come over time?
