How nice the campus is and how the classes aren't too long and my schedule works put nicely.

When I tell people about my experience in college, I mainly brag about all the amazing people I’ve met. The value of my education is worth bragging about and so are our athletic teams, but nothing compares to the friends I’ve made. Being an in-state student at UConn, I already have a lot of friends, but it’s the friends I’ve made from other towns or states who complete my circle. College is an opportunity to meet people from a larger pool; it is more likely that you discover more people with similar interests as you.

When I talk about UConn I brag most about the school spirit. The division one sports teams make campus life really exciting at times. The UConn Men's basketball team won the national championship both my Freshman and Senior year. It was a great platform to bond with other students and celebrate our school pride.

Uconn has such amazing school spirit. When it comes to supporting athletic games- events put on by clubs and organizations the student body of uconn really comes out and supports every one. I love to brag to people about that.

The number of research opportunities available on campus.

I say i go to one of the top schools in connecticut and our sports team are awsome. I tell them we have an awsome women center.

First, I brag about being NCAA men's basketball champs. Other than that I talk about the size. How it is big where there are plenty of things to do, but not too big where you feel lost. Also, classes are pretty easy to get enrolled in, if they are in high demand they will usually open more sections to accomodate students. Lastly, I talk about the social life. There is always something to do on the weekends whether or not your drink. And I always brag about my sorority.

When I tell my friends about my school, I most often brag about its dedicated faculty members and its extracurricular activities. Although they are very busy with research projects and other courses, most faculty members will make every effort to clarify course material and give you advice on how to succeed. All you have to do is approach them. Attend their office hours, or speak to them after class. In terms of extracurricular activities, there truly is something for everyone. If by chance there is not an extracurricular activity for you, you can start your own club.
Darren
I brag mostly about the fact that I am going to UCONN. I also like to mention that I got good grades and made the Dean's List.

The campus is like a mini city. It takes about 30 minutes to walk from one end of the campus to the other, which I find very agreeable because students do not feel restricted to an education-based environment. There are many buildings and lounges that I have yet to discover, which is always exciting because there is always a chance to learn something new about the campus, unlike smaller campuses where students may become very bored with their similar daily surroundings. For those that make use of everything the campus has to offer, they will find it very rewarding!
