- Being one of the top universities in the USA, the program I was in provided me with a proper blend of business analytics and project management skills, which drove me to accept admission from UCONN.
- Being one of the top state universities in the USA, UCONN is very organized with the coursework and has industry leaders as professors. Interacting with such leaders of the business world and gaining knowledge from this is really a plus for any student and thats what i like the most.
Dislikes
- Our campus is situated in the Downtown of Hartford, CT where as the main campus is in Storrs, CT. I really wish our classes also were based out of the main campus in Storrs, CT as it feels like a proper university atmosphere apart from just attending classes out of a building in the city.
Campus Life
UCONN, School of Business does not have a big campus apart from just a building in the Downtown of Hartford, but UCONN Storrs has a very big campus which will provide the experience of an actual state university in the USA.
Accommodation
I didn't stay at the university dorm. Most of the students choose to stay in private apartments near the college and the cost of accommodation varies according to the apartments. I stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment with 3 other people. It costed us $2200 for the whole apartment. So, its approximately $550 per head.

- As I had to go with both project management as well analytics field I choose this university.
- Flexible curriculum, offers project management courses alongside analytics.Provides experiential learning opportunities such as data challenges, and consulting projects. Career counsellors at UConn School of Business can guide in building active connections with corporate professionals, which broadens my path for internship and career prospects.
Dislikes
- I feel the cost of tuition, fees, and other expenses associated with the BAPM program are not that much worth compared to the teaching standards. I feel the course content is not well-structured.
Campus Life
Good number of libraries, sports. Depends on the campus you choose.
Accommodation
CAN SHARE ROOMS IF REQUIRED. COSTS 500$ per person if 4 people shares a room
Likes
- My main factor for choosing UConn was because of my advisor. She has a lot of expertise in the area that I wanted to work in.
Campus Life
You can try out several outdoor activities to like Hiking, Skydiving, Rock climbing etc as a part of the university recreation clubs. Also Wifi, sports facilities, gym and game room can be accessed by all students and you can use the high performance computing if you need to run several programs that will take time.
Accommodation
There are several accommodations in various price range around campus. Some have public transportation facilities and some do not. It would cost $800-1100 each month including utilities depending on where you live.
Likes
- Top ranked university in Business Analytics Good job ornithology in this area Located in insurance capital.
Campus Life
No Campus life for Hartford camps. We should visit storrs campus for any kind of extra circular activities and sports activities.
Accommodation
I have opted for off campus accommodation . Here the facilities vary depending upon the infrastructure .
This college is in my home state and I ultimately chose it because it was the cheapest I got accepted to because I have in state tuition. I was in the top 10th percentile of my class and I got accepted into UConn’s honors program that only accepts 500 students out of an incoming class of over 6000. I chose this program because I originally thought I would transfer out but after staying for a year I really liked the school, it was big enough and had plenty of diversity and programs offered. But small enough that I didn’t feel overwhelmed by the large community. The honors program is a fantastic community.
Scholarships are available to be applied. I received one from my university, which is renewable upon re-application. Work-study programs also give students a way to work while receiving aid. There are also student loans that can be used as a last resort for students that need further financial assistance
