How do DE credits transfer?

I wanna know how dual enrollment credits from high school transfer. Since some of the classes I took dual enrollment for are ones that are prerequisites for my degree (A&P 1 and 2, Chemistry) I know I definitely have to retake them, but I at least wanna know that they are going somewhere towards my 120 credits. Also, do the grades you got in that class transfer over too? I wouldn’t mind since I got As in all of them but AP Chem destroyed me and I have a B- 😭

Another thing, since I’m doing a BS degree, what happens to all my history (APUSH and World)? I also took an AP French equivalent but I’m minoring in French so I think it will count towards my minor.

I got a super good scholarship (Uconn was my cheapest option, including in state colleges) and I heard that Uconn stem programs are super good. (im doing physiology and neurobiology). However, I'm also hearing about a housing crisis??? That's iffy. I'm out of state, I don't want to have nowhere to go... I did visit the campus (which I loved) but it's in the middle of nowhere. Not that I mind, I like quieter towns. If i remember correctly, I get free transportation all throughout Connecticut, so that's a plus. But I'm not sure how far the bus routes go and how far I can get out with them. Anyway, I just have some questions to ask:

  • After freshman year, how bad is housing? Is there anything I can do to make sure I have a dorm on campus after freshman year?
  • Am I still able to travel places without a car? How good is transportation from the college to Connecticut cities?
  • Overall, is it worth to go here?
