UConn Hartford truly makes you comfortable with who you are and part of this is because the faculty and staff are so welcoming and they truly care about your well-being.”

“What I love most about UConn Hartford is the people. The students, faculty, and staff make the campus a great place to be. I have a spectacular group of friends and it’s really great to see how people connect with one another no matter your skin tone or background, which makes it a great space to talk about all issues. I find that inspiring.”
