A fun group of people who love what they do.

My classmates are very bright and come from all backgrounds which creates a wonderful mix of students.

pretty good groups on campus. alot of cultural organizations as well as social, religious, and professional groups. The body of students is pretty diverse. Alot of ct white kids but also large population of diverse ethnic groups and also hot girls (especially when it gets warm out).

Jenn

LGBT community is there and active making money is a huge incentive to be there drinking is huge

Alex

UConn is very diverse and everyone bonds with everyone.

Jessica

I have had experiences with those outside of my own race, mostly through classes, and some I am still friends with today. This past year, I also had roommates who were lesbians, and it was one of my favorite living situations since I have been here. They were a great relief and very accepting of me, listening to the reasons which led me to randomly live in the same apartment as them (previous roommates proved to be the worst people to live with). I felt very comfortable living with them. I've become great friends with them and I wish I could live with them next year. I find that UConn is the best place to interact with students different from yourself. It has led me to learn a lot about myself as well other people around me.

Brett

Antisocial people would feel out of place. There's lots of diversity. Some cliques form quickly, but most people try to mix it up. Most students are from Connecticut. Most aren't politically aware. (I'm not, sadly.) The great majority are left.

Dave

i dont think that anyone would feel out of place at UCONN because it is very diverse, most kids are from connecticut

Annie

I think most people would fit in well on campus. It is very open and the people very accepting. Kids usually wear sweats to class and it is a very relaxed environment.

kat

the uconn student body is pretty chill. dont be ashamed to wear sweatpants and flip-flops to your classes. most uconn students are from ct for obvious reasons, but you can definitely find students from all over the us, and the world for that matter.
