Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÒÅÆ occupies a unique, 200-acre campus in southwestern Connecticut with rolling hills, mature landscapes, and coastal views of Long Island Sound. Our 200 acres feature multiple athletic fields, housing options that range from traditional residence halls to apartments to townhouses, and is home to 36 modern buildings that provide state-of-the-art technology and the resources you'll need to complement your classroom experience. All residences and academic buildings are linked by fiber-optic cable, some with wireless connections, so access to databases, the library's impressive collections, and the Internet are just a click away - anytime, anywhere.
The University runs a free shuttle bus into downtown Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÒÅÆ(pop. 55,000), just a mile from campus, with its popular shops and restaurants, and the train station that provides easy access to New Haven, Stamford, and New York City.
Our suburban setting provides a vibrant environment for living and learning, students are encouraged to step out, step up and access the many career and community opportunities in the thriving urban area. Approximately 140 Fortune 500 firms are headquartered within an hour of campus. Internships, community service and leadership projects all provide invaluable extensions of classroom learning

More than 80 percent of Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÒÅÆ undergraduates live on campus, meaning that when you sign up for a meal plan, chances are you'll run into a few of your friends at every meal. You can choose from a variety of dining options, including deli, grill, and vegetarian options. We even encourage students to share their favorite recipes from home, so we can provide a wider and more popular selection of menu items.
Housing

We are dedicated to fostering a sense of community, and this begins with where you live. The deepest learning and strongest bonds form when you're in an environment that's not just comfortable, but intellectually and creatively stimulating. Some students find they're most at home in our more traditional residence halls, townhouses, or apartment complexes. Others prefer our living and learning, or residential college communities - an opportunity to connect with students who have similar interests, while settling into life on campus.
