The primary and original UConn campus is in Storrs, a division of the Town of Mansfield, 22 miles (35 km) east of Hartford, Connecticut's capital and bordered by the towns of Ashford, Coventry, Willington, and Windham. The University of Connecticut's Waterbury campus serves more than 1,000 students annually and offers nine four-year undergraduate degrees. Located at Constitution Plaza in downtown Hartford, UConn's Graduate Business Learning Center (GBLC) at Hartford campus is home to the UConn School of Business full-time, part-time and Executive MBA program along with several other program offerings. The Stamford Campus of the University of Connecticut offers complete undergraduate degree programs in thirteen majors as well as the Bachelor of General Studies Degree Program.

Connecticut College (Conn) is a private liberal arts college in New London, Connecticut. The main campus has three residential areas. 

There is a wide variety of student organizations on campus, including fraternities and sororities, musical groups, and religious, athletic, political, cultural, business, military, artistic, and community service clubs. The university's programming board, the Student Union Board of Governors (SUBOG), plans the largest students events on campus. The organization is completely student run and plans events like the annual concerts, Homecoming, One Ton Sundae, weekly movies, and hosts a range of comedians and speakers each month. Storrs Downtown Center has been a popular area for UConn students, nearby residents, and visitors.

Students live under the college's 85-year-old student-adjudicated honor code, which distinguishes Connecticut College from most of its peers.[citation needed] The honor code underpins all academic and social interactions at the college and creates a palpable spirit of trust and cooperation between students and faculty. The Student Activities Council (SAC) runs events including club fairs, school dances, concerts, and off-campus excursions.SAC is also responsible for Floralia, the annual spring concert. Connecticut College does not offer a Greek system of fraternities or sororities.The college has seven a cappella groups. Unity House is the college's multicultural center which promotes, supports, educates, and implements multicultural awareness programs on campus.It supports various affinity, activist, and performance student groups.
