What kind of person should attend University of Connecticut?

Nolan

Literally anyone can attend this school. There is such a diverse student body, anyone could find friends and people who share the same views as them. All they would have to do is be social from the begining, or go join clubs that share the same interests as them. As intelligence is concered, the classes can range from extremely easy to extremely difficult, depending on major and choice of teacher.

Calen

As I haven't started college yet, I'm unsure. However, from what I've heard, it's a great school to go to, and I'm excited.

UConn is the perfect school for students who will not feel lost in large numbers. The campus is huge, and you must be ready to ask for directions. If you can be comfortable in a large lecture hall, and not be intimidated to ask for tutoring help, then you will do nicely at UConn. There is always campus activities every day of the week at UConn. However, if you require the intimacy of knowing each and every teacher, and if you desire to be known by each of your teachers, a smaller college would br a better choice for you.

Thomas

The kind of person who should attend this school is someone who is looking for the classic college experience. UConn has it all. They won't be disappointed. If they are looking for a more defined and intimate experience, they should look elsewhere.

Rebecca

I think that the best type of person would be someone who is motivated to learn and will make the most of what the school has to offer. You can get a great education for less money than other schools especially if you live in the state of CT. Also, if you do well in school you can be accpeted into graduate and masters level schools after graduation. There are plenty of different major to choose from and if you use your advisor and are motivated you can do anything in the future.

I feel like this is a school that anyone can attend. UCONN is so large and its size allows people of all ethnicities, backgrounds and and walks of life to feel welcome and accepted. UCONN is so diverse that labels don't matter. UCONN is the place where anyone can come and now matter how they were in high school they can reinvent themselves. It doesn't matter if you want to study puppetry or if you're going to be a doctor; there is a place at UCONN for you.

Anyone can attend UCONN as long as one is open to a “larger” sized campus, high expectations regarding academics, high spirited campus community, and a rural setting. One makes their experience exactly as they would want it to be; college is what you make of it no matter where you go. The University of Connecticut is just a world of endless and open possibilities for anyone.

I think you have to be an involved person. If you don't like to go out an meet new people, or join clubs or sports, this school can seem really big. There are tons of oppurtunites to meet new people, but you have to be willing to do so.

Catherine

I think this school is good for just about anyone. I can't speak for most on campus activities because I am a commuter and don't stick around for most activities but it is easy to get involved. I am in the UConn Marching Band (the largest student organization on campus), a co-ed fraternity and multiple musical ensembles. There is always something going on and this school is very enjoyable. Most of the teachers are great and most of the students are great too.

Emily

Almost anyone. You can find so many different people at UConn--it's a really diverse population. But especially kids who are interested in a huge variety of different opportunities--my major right now is something I had never even heard of until I got here! (It's diagnostic genetic sciences). Also anyone who loves watching college sports! We have a reputation as a party school, and it is a great place for kids who want to have fun, but you have to work hard to play hard. The coursework is very demanding, but in a good way!

Anyone who is looking to challenge themselves academically will benefit from this school. Also, someone who likes to socialize with other individuals will have a great time at UConn.
