University of Connecticut Reviews
Rating 3.64 out of 5 3,446 reviews
UConn overall was a good experience, however I think the transition through COVID-19 could have been handled better. The school's stringent social distancing policies had a grave impact on the mental health of the student body and left very few opportunities to immerse oneself in the Husky culture. This sudden shift in student living as well as the majority of classes being conducted online should have resulted in a noticeable decrease in tuition, but this was, unfortunately, not the case. In general, over the course of the pandemic, the value of the education and experience at UConn did not align with the cost of their tuition.
I truly believe there is a place for everyone at UConn. I know that everyone goes into college with different hopes and expectations, and UConn has so much to offer to achieve all of them. From academics, to social life, you’ll find whatever you look for at UConn. Sports fans have multiple events to look forward to during the week and there are constantly student organized events occurring across campus that make college life more enjoyable and exciting. The campus is quite large, and sometimes it may be a hike from class to class, however, the nature and the views along the way make it worth it. There are many spots on campus that offer beautiful views of the sunset, and those who enjoy the outdoors have many places where they can sunbathe when the weather is nice or do homework under the shade of a big tree. I truly believe that anyone can find a place for them at UConn and enjoy everything this university has to offer. Go Huskies!
As a whole, Uconn is an OK school but that is about it, so I am not sure why it's one of the highly rated colleges in CT. It's completely isolated so DON'T come if you mostly have city schools on your list (I made that mistake). Food/housing are terrible too! There's always activities on campus but if you don't get there minutes before, be ready to wait in long lines or not make it in time to do anything. That's why my friends and I had more fun outside of Storrs. Professors are also not the best, TAs and studying with friends will be your key to pass. As someone who has lived in CT all my life and transferred out of UConn already, in my opinion there's better options in the state. Only other good thing offered were the free transportation (UPass). For the most part, it seems as though the school will always care more about maintaining their athletic status than worrying about their academics since that seems to be where all the money goes.
