Center for Students with Disabilities
Any student with a documented disability is eligible to receive services from the Center for Students with Disabilities (CSD). The purpose of accommodations and modifications is to reduce or eliminate any disadvantages that may exist because of an individual's disability. The law does not require institutions to waive specific courses or academic requirements considered essential to a particular program or degree. Rather, they are mandated to modify existing requirements on a case-by-case basis in order to ensure that individuals are not discriminated against on the basis of their disability.
For more information, contact CSD at (860) 486-2020 or visit the Center for Students with Disabilities website.
Financial Aid
The Office of Student Financial Aid Services is your one-stop source for information on scholarships, grants, need-based financial aid and veterans benefits.
Visit the Office of Student Financial Aid Services website for more information on financing your UConn degree.
First Year Programs and Learning Communities
UConn’s Office of First Year Programs offers classes, academic support and peer education opportunities that will help you successfully transition from high school to college.
Our popular First Year Experience (FYE) classes allow you to attend class with other new students that share your same questions, concerns and anxieties about college. Class topics include study skills, time management and major and career exploration.
Enrollment in a Learning Community for the 2010-2011 academic year provides an opportunity to take an FYE class with hall mates in a residence hall.
