Connecticut College was and will always be the best 4 years of my life. A year and a half out now, and I still talk to many of my friends every week and see them all the time. I have a great job and am the youngest employee in my workplace- which has over 500 employees. The schools caters to really motivated people. The opportunities to go abroad, do research, and have a social life are endless. If you are open minded, liberal, and love individual attention and great people this is the place to be.

The academics at conn really come down to how much you put into it yourself. If you are looking to find an individual experience and further your own interests the opportunities absolutely exist, you just have to be willing to put in the time.
There are a wide range of feelings about the social life but all of it really is on campus. The surrounding area is not much to talk about but the people at conn are what make it so great. There are so many different types of people that there is bound to be someone out there you can have a good time with. It can be repetitive if you don't make your own fun sometimes but that can be part of the learning experience.
In all aspects I'd say the resources to make whatever you want of the experience are all there you just have to put them to good use

Connecticut College was my first choice, and I felt very lucky to be able to attend. It's got a great atmosphere and the classes are really interesting. All of my professors have been very willing to give outside help and provide fun, creative assignments that actually get you thinking about the work. Coming from New York City and the United Nations International School for high school, the only downfall I see at Conn is the huge lack of diversity. However, it's something that the school is working on.
Thursday and Saturday nights are always loud and busy, but if you want to study there's always someone to study with as the students are both interested in academics and fun. The sports teams are fine, though so far I haven't seen a huge amount of enthusiasm for anything except Hokey - and the games I've been to are intense!
The dorms are pretty good and the structure of house fellows and Student Advisers is really well put together. They do pretty well at matching roommates, though I have seen some flaws happen they're always willing to help you fix your problems with your roommates.
I love Conn overall and am so excited to be a part of the student body!

I loved Connecticut College and my dream job would be to return there and teach. I know realize what an amazing place it was. I have been to graduate school and taught at other schools and none has compared to CC. The students were far more motivated than any I have met at other schools, loved to discuss ideas and were generally extremely intelligent. The only down side was the lack of diversity.
