Hi everyone,
I was accepted in to the STEM Scholars honors program and I was wondering about UConn dorms. What are the best dorms on campus (specifically for engineering majors)?
Thanks so much!
As an engineering major, and because you are in the STEM Honors program you would be eligible for the brand new dorm….
Copied from UCONN’s website…
This new 212,000-square-foot facility will house students participating in one of eight Living & Learning Communities – EcoHouse, Engineering House, Eurotech House, Innovation House, STEM Honors, Public Health House, ScHOLA2RS House, and WiMSE (Women in Math, Science & Engineering) House – who are developing skills in innovation and creativity to lead their generation. Construction began in November 2014, with a budget of $105 million and completion targeted for Fall 2016.
All of the other dorms are pretty old. If location is what is important…North and Northwest are near the Science classrooms/buildings, but far from downtown. Actually as a freshman, unless you participate in a Living & Learning Community, housing assignments are completely random…so you have no say…you get what you get.
thank you so much your post was extremely helpful!
