Some questions about the UW

I am likely to decide to UW this year. I have some questions about the surrounding of the campus. Also, I am a Taiwanese student who attended on school on Guam before. Also, I am kind of waiver to attend SFU of Vancouver because the SFU supports the animal vet study. I heard the the Washington state university supports vet, but is this the same case to UW? Also, if I want to prepare for the requisite courses. Will the Ap course book or E-Z barrons books be good material (please do not tell me just to buy the book. Books on Guam do not have as good quality as the one in states)? Lastly, what is your opinion on SFU vs UW?
