Please note, that UCONN Greater Hartford will be relocating to the old Times building in Hartford…read morepossibly for the start of the 2017-2018 school year. Being so used to CCSU's campus, coming here for grad school is totally different experience. The campus is much smaller, due to the fact that it is a branch campus of UCONN. There are only five buildings: the small technology building, the library (with additional classrooms and an auditorium), the School of Social Work building, the Undergraduate building, and the maintenance building. That's pretty much it. There is not much of food options in between classes, only in the undergrad building you can pick up some on the go goods. It's like a small convenience store with a couple of microwaves and lots of seating. If you want real food, your best bet is to go to Bishop's Corner or Blue Back Square, both within a couple miles of the campus. During the warmer months a lot of people like to walk their dogs or push baby strollers through the campus. There is also a small pond that is frequently inhabited by ducks and geese as well. Just watch out for geese poop littered throughout the sidewalks. I wonder what UCONN will make of this campus after they move back to Hartford. I place my money on it being bought by University of St. Joseph. Either way, I'm sure the new campus will be much more beautiful than the current one. Plus the relocation will give students a lot more and better options to eat and play in between classes.

Trinity College founded by Thomas Church Brownell in 1823 is the second oldest college in…read moreConnecticut after Yale University. The college was located on land they had purchased and later sold to the State of CT in 1845, that property is now called Bushnell Park. One of the original college dormitories was located right where the State Capitol Building now stands. Trinity College is a member of The Little Ivy Schools along with Wesylan, Amherst and Williams College in our area. The Trinity campus building architecture is simply beautiful the Main Quard is bounded by the clock tower and Brownell Chapel on the North, the straight run, called the Long Walk made up of dorms and classrooms on the West border of the green this is a grand promenade of the entire lenght of The Main Quard. The Green is distinct as it has no paths through it; the Elm trees on the green are planted in a "T" for Trinity. There is a larger than life bronze statue of Thomas Church Brownell founder of the college and to the rear on either side are two canons from the USS Harford, the flag ship of Rear Admiral David Farragut during the civil war battle of Mobile Bay in New Orleans. There is plenty of history and beauty here as a visit to Trinity College and Brownell Chapel will no doubt confirm!

Very pretty campus…read more Came here on a trip to visit a friend and realized that everyone here was super nice. Some dorms are kinda crappy but the others are very nice. I love their campus, it's a great place to just relax with friends and have fun.

Took a tour today with our junior in high school son. Really nice people. Weather was good for this…read moreterrible winter. I imagine it's a good place to go to school if the right fit. Wasn't for us. Which is why you take visits, right!? However, admissions rep who gave the info session was as good or better than others we've seen in the state university system. Note: bookstore inventory for gear is boarderline embarrassing for a D1 school. Clearly want to push you on line. We were not buyers today - in general - but wanted to see. If you're a fan or want gear for your student or athlete - look on line only.

The worst school ever. Parents if you are reading this- I urge you not to let your children go to…read morethis school. 1. The bursars office and administration are some of the rudest people I have ever met in my life (and I work in an ER) if that says anything. They are the least helpful people. All they want is your money and that's it. 2.The teachers are not kind whatsoever. They don't help the students at all. They don't respond to their emails. My math teacher (she was the only russian math teacher there) literally bullied me the entire semester I was there. During finals, in the middle of the class she word for word said out loud "i don't know why you're here when you're going to fail it anyways." to me DURING MY FINAL. 3. When trying to withdrawal from a class, I had to email my professor asking her to sign the form. She responded to my email "Who are you?" when I had already went to about 6-7 of her classes. When I responded, she never responded back to me which resulted in me getting charged for the class. 4. The president of academic affairs literally got arrested for kidnapping and assaulting the students on campus. Look it up. 5. The school in its entirety, is an absolute dump. It's extremely depressing. (Oh and for the students that are reading this that are thinking about coming here, I'm just going to let you know now that there are literally no parties, NB police shuts them down before they even start) 6. I really hate to say this but CCSU has a very bad reputation of sexual assaults occurring on campus. A lot of my friends went here as well and every single one has gotten sexually assaulted here (some even more than once.) The school has done nothing about it. (You can look this up as well) So parents, I would reconsider letting your daughter go here. 7. OH AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST! When you are done attending CCSU, they tell you you need to pay your tuition in 6 months otherwise it goes into collections. I'm sorry, but I did not have $10,000 laying around nor was I going to be able to come up with 10g's in 6 months. (What a Joke) They also did not even try to work with me or help me they gave me that one option and that was it. AND if you don't pay in full, they will not release your transcript to you. (if you were transferring schools/going back to school, etc) All in all, this school is absolutely terrible. I would not go back here or recommend this school to anyone. It's not just me who didn't like it either, everyone Ive talked to hated it and had an awful experience. I basically summed up what had happened to me while i was at CCSU and sent it to the president of the school and all she responded with was "would you like to give me a call" literally that was it (and the email I sent was probably 3 paragraphs long) Terrible staff, terrible campus, terrible FOOD, terrible extra curricular programs. Everything about this school is awful. HOWEVER, I did like my advisor a lot, she was very caring and kind and really tried to help me. Other than that, they should shut this school down with how many complaints and sexual assault cases that occurred here.
