r/UCONN

Hello!! I am interested in doing the room change process, how likely is it that I can switch into the Oaks as a girl (if that matters), thanks!

Hello all I am a rising sophomore at UConn and I want to prepare for a lot of classes that I'm going to be taking this fall. I'll be taking Anatomy and Physiology, Microbiology, Organic Chemistry and then in the spring I will be taking Anatomy and Physiology 2, Organic Chemistry 2, and Biochemistry and maybe Genetics.

I really want to prepare over the summer, so I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for videos, study resources, notes, practice problems, or advice on labs and workloads. I’d also appreciate any information people have about professors, teaching styles, exam styles, or anything else that would help me know what to expect in these classes at UConn. Thank you!

Does anyone know about the housing situation for grad students? I got my offer late and was only able to put in my housing application last week. I’m only interested in a studio/1B at the Oaks, but the UConn housing office told me that I may not be able to get it as I am on the waitlist they are almost out of space at the Oaks. How possible is it to move off the waitlist at this point? Are there any other studio/1B options within walking distance of UConn? I am flexible with prices. Thanks!!

How many people who got put on the waitlist for the upcoming school year took themselves off/found off campus housing?

How many people who were on the waitlist received an offer thus far?

If I am a rising senior who has a commuter status, am I screwed?

What's the best way I can ensure that I receive on campus housing? I already submitted a CSD form for housing, and got denied because they didn't see my disability as a significant factor for needing on campus housing.

Hello, I am 3 credits short of 120 because I failed a class this semester, what should I do?

It’s funny because I walked graduation and everything, and for the summer class I’m not able to register for the class. so what the next step?

Hi!! I’m going to be attending Storrs in the fall as a freshman and I was hoping to continue my side hustle as a soccer referee as to help pay most of my tuition. I’m looking into it now, and off-campus jobs do not qualify to apply for a parking permit. Any idea on what to do? I heard people rent spots off campus for a couple hundred dollars, any recommendations for off campus spots for parking?

Hi! I just committed to UConn as a rising junior transfer! I’m wondering if there’s any social media platform that transfers can communicate / meet one another on? Almost similar to the commitment page on insta for incoming freshmen, but I know it’s prob different for transfers

Hello I'm an incoming freshman and i might get a D in pre calc. Its not a grad requirement and I have all a's and bs in 4 other ap classes. Will my acceptance get rescinded or nah? Btw if I get a D in pre calc my weighted gpa will still be 4.0 and my school goes by weighted.

Hi, I am going to UCONN in the fall and I’m gonna major in Animal Science, I was just wondering if an IPad would be useful, because I was thinking about buying one for my notes and to draw models of things, I will also have a computer. I was just wondering if it is really helpful or not?

I have been committed to UConn as a mechanical engineer but I just received an acceptance off of the waitlist at Virginia Tech. I am having lots of trouble coming up with a decision of where I am going to end up going. I feel like UConn fits my personality more and it’s also way closer to home but Virginia tech is definitely the better engineering school. I don’t want anyone to make the decision for me but I was wondering if anyone could give me some things to consider about both schools so I can make the decision by may 20th

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’m trying to get a gauge on what’s competitive in the hiring market for UConn students. If you’re an engineer who got hired either this year or last year right out of UConn, what salary were you offered & what kind of engineer are you?

Of course this isn't the finalized one because I haven't even touched down at UConn yet, but I got sent an email about maybe a week or so ago saying that I could put possible classes or something

We've obviously heard rumors of this before, but to hear it from Rothstein is very interesting. How would you feel if UConn left the Big East?
