If going to a big school is not for you then fine. Uconn is big but some people want that. Thats what makes sporting events and school spirit at Uconn. The surrounding area might not be great but get involved and find out about the little bars and restaurants in the surrounding towns that add to the nostalgia of the area. There are so many different types of people at this school that its hard to complain or say only such and such type of kids go here. The choice is yours for how ur experience will be. This school might not be for everybody but if u want a school that has a great reputation, great athletics, a diverse student body, great academics for not too expensive of a price, i highly recommend checking out Uconn.

However, campus safety is a real problem and the administration turns the other cheek on some pretty serious incidents. Assault is so common that a pathway from the main campus to an apt complex is called rape alley. I guess if you are aware of surroundings at all times, the campus is manageable but why should that be a concern at college? It's too bad because one can get a decent education here.

It does well in public rankings for a reason, but I firmly believe it's rating is over hyped. If you really want to try your best in college, studying for personal benefit and not some piece of paper that certifies you to do things, then go somewhere else. I'm working on transferring right now. My primary reasons are: the school is just not challenging enough; and the bias: I am sick of Connecticut. If you are from out of state, have average grades and expectations, come here. You'll be surprised how well you can do at a fairly well regarded school. I hope this helps.Also, be wary of the website. It is an abomination to the internet and should be burned as a witch. Scholastic Success: A, Campus Maintenance: F Have a Question?
