Chon

The best thing about my school is its massive resources it provides to the students. It allows many oppertunities to the students, provides centers where students get to meet new people, and it provides many help centers to help students throughout their time on the university.

What makes the University of Connecticut so ideal is its determination to produce successful students. The courses are difficult and the work load can be overwhelming, but the end result is a promising career. I am a transfer student to UCONN from Roger Williams University. UCONN was a drastic change from type of academics I was accustomed to at Roger Williams. However, the University of Connecticut has transformed me into a student I did not know I was capable of becoming. I am now a harder working student than I have ever been who truely values the importance of education.

The best thing about the University of Connecticut is all the activities that you can get involved in and the number of people there are to meet. I love how big the campus is because it's big enough that you don't feel like you have to get to know everyone like in high school, but small enough where you still pass a lot of your friends walking to class. I also like that the whole town of Storrs is the UConn campus. And because it's its own little town, there's a lot of school spirit.

Erin

The best thing about the University of Connecticut is the diversity and size of the school. There are all different types of people that attend the university and it gives the campus a very different feel. The size also helps because with so many people of all different cultural backgrounds you are certain to meet many different people and expand your social horizons.

Mayra

The best thing about Uconn is the quality of education we receive for the price. The classes are challenging and make it worth the degree we receive.

Alisha

There is a strong sense of school spirit here. Many of the students (and their families) are avid sports fans. Football games and basketball games are big events at UCONN. Everyone is pretty friendly and willing to help, whether it is letting you know which shuttle takes you where, or helping you study for a particular class. Since the majority of UCONN students are open to meeting new people and the school spirit is so strong, campus life is made easier and more fun.

Amanda

The best thing about my school is the networking you can do with professors and the guidance that you can receive from them. They are willing to spend time with you to talk about the specifics of your field, and I have found that most of the professors I had truly had a passion for teaching.

Victoria

I think the best thing about UCONN is the fact that a student will never be bored. Attending sporting games, participating in intermural sports, joining a club, participating in volunteer work, pledging a fraternity or sorority, getting involved in helping other students, taking advantage of the numerous career, academic, or other resources on campus, or simply challenging oneself in academics. There is a vast variety of things to do on campus is endless. At UCONN, there is something for everyone and anyone.
