Im going to be completely honest here if you need to live on campus my answer is simple do not come here. I am from the other side of Connecticut so I decided to come and stay on campus here. It was fun the first week because there was a storm so everyone stayed. After that everyone goes home on weekends. It is like a ghost town on campus half the time. You could literally walk out on the central quad on a saturday afternoon and not find one person. If you are a commuter who has a fine social life outside of school then you'll like it. I am in the process of transferring to UCONN thats where a lot of CCSU kids go on weekends here anyway. Theres never any parties and the school has little activities. One time they had a movie in the Kaiser pool so I went to check it out thinking it would be cool till i got there and figured out they were playing cars 2. They preach a message of a dry campus but then give you an alternative which is to watch baby movies. Come on CCSU really I'm 19 not 5. In terms of academics its just like every other school. By the way don't think this is just some bad student complaining because I'm in the honors program and this school does nothing to keep their students in. Many students come here but everyone on my floor already has talked about transfer at one point or another. So in short if your a commuter come here but if your planning on living on campus please stay far away.
