Julie

I really don't think that there is any one type of person that shouldn't attend this school. I truly believe that UConn has something to offer every kind of person. There are so many different kinds of classes to take and so many activities to get involved in. I think that anyone could find their fit here.

This campus is very large, in size and population. It is easy to get discouraged if you are from a small town area outside of Connecticut. The classes are large, the dorms are cramped, so you have to be able to adjust to sharing room with others and in order to form relationships with other classmates and professors you have to be willing to step out of your comfort zone, but once you do, it's an amazing experience and definitely worth it.

Samantha

anyone who isnt serious about getting a college education anyone who just wants to party hardy should not bother attending

Micah

If you don't like big schools or big classes because for the first few years these are mostly the classes you will be taking. Also there is a real big school feel in regards to sports, etc.

Sadi

If you are not willing to study during mid-terms and final or cannot take work loads then this is probably not the best school for you. If you just got by in high school, you probably will not succeed in UCONN. Be prepared to write large reseach papers and spending a lot of time in the library studying.

Regina

Someone who is dedicated to school and plans on making a good future for themselves

Danita

Daniel

Everyone - this school is large enough to be diverse but small enough to be familiar after just a few weeks.

Thomas

The kind of person that shouldn't attend this school is a person who might be intimidated by size. There are over 16,000 students who attend the main campus of UConn and it can be overwhelming for some. Thats the only reason I can think of for someone not to attend, UConn is a great place to attend and every day is like a new adventure.

Caitlin

shy quiet individual

Melinda

someone who doesn't like large schools, crowds and being a number instead of a name.

Micah

people who are not interested in big sporting events like basketball and football games. people who like or are used to smaller schools may not like uconn either because it is giant and it takes a lot of walking to get to where you want to go.

Andrew

Anyone who does not do well in big crowds should not attend this school. Being a large school, there are times where you might feel like you are only a number. There are some very large lecture classes, but they have smaller classes to go with them. This school is for people who want to be a part of an energetic crowd with high school spirit. Basketball and football are pretty important here and we have our rival schools. You do not need to belong to a fraternity or sorority in order to have a social life.
