Thoughts post investigation:

Before this research on The University of Connecticut it was one of the top schools I was interested and wanted to go to but after the research I changed my mind. One of the reasons why I reconsidered is because of the low diversity of the school. But besides that uConn is a good school that offers a lot of things to students like scholariships and a wide variety of majors and clubs.
