University of Connecticut Top Questions

the university is great, but the academic advisor's are pretty horrible. do your research. i know so many people who have been screwed out of graduating on time due to depending on an adviser too much. Also if you don't know your major when you step foot into the door, don't expect to graduate in 4 years, this is very unlikely, I know.

UCONN! HUSKIES!

UConn is great. There's something for everyone and you will find people with whom you'll get along great, you just have to look around a little.

All in all, I love Uconn. Even though sometimes I feel awkward because there isnt that much diversity.

The food is actually pretty good ... depending on where you go. South and Towers are, more often than not, pleasant surprises. Buckley, on the other hand, is awful, but it makes an effort; it's just serves too few people to have enough choices. East is hit or miss becasue they use all local foods (including dairy bar ice cream, yum!) so sometimes it's amazing and sometimes not so much. North is okay, Northwest is better than North, but not as good as Towers. I haven't eaten at Putnam (aka: Hilltop) or McMahon yet, but I hear that they're about as good as North, which is quite tolerable.

If you play an instrument, join marching band (UCMB, Pride of Connecticut, the really loud people behind Charter Oak). If you don't play an instrument, learn one. Then join marching band.

campus population is growing too quickly so it's very hard to get the classes and dorms we would like. need more dorms/classes or should cut back on enrollment capacities

Uconn experience was amazing!

Although it may sound not so great by what I've said at times, it really is a great university and i have had a blast here. The housing is ok, the food is ok, and the classes are ok...but i mean what can we expect...we're in college....just know who you are and make the best of it and you'll love it here!!!!! GO HUSKIES!

UConn is awesome! I have no regrets coming here & I would stay here forever if I could.
