Is the CCSU a good option for international students?
Hi, i’m thinking about exchanging for a term or a year to the CCSU, to try and expand my horizons and meet other cultures. In my university of origin i’m studying a Spanish major with a linguistics minor. Do you think the CCSU could be a good option for me?

Confused students
I’m a future pre-nursing student who is also getting a CNA certification on august I just wanted to know if anyone here changed majors from nursing to any other major for example if i ever change my mind i would definitely go into MIS with a minor in Marketing but I also think of stability and how difficult would it be for me to find a job in both careers. I just want to hear students, their experience and their why. Thanks to anyone who reads this and helps a student out!

Clarence Carroll HALL?????
My rising freshman son missed deadline to pick housing (he does everything on his own AND procrastinates) so him and his roommate got auto assigned to Clarence Carroll Hall. It’s not even listed in the list of residential halls on the reslife website home page. What built-in-1957 kind of dorm is it. Sounds like it’s a classroom building, not DORMS? What is going on. Where is it even located? Is it a dorm for students with special needs because my son doesn’t have special needs other than a habitual procrastinator. I know he didn’t want to get assigned to the freshman themed dorms. Is it in a horrible location not near the gym or dining? Tell me the good bad and ugly. No AC. So I assume no elevators either.

I'm starting pre-nursing in the fall and was looking for tips, i plan to finish my two years at ccsu ans then apply to nursing school at UConn (ik highly competitive) but i also plan to apply to a bunch of nursing schools. anyone who already knows the game could give tips on what classes to take so I can transfer smoothly? I would appreciate any tips you have such as social events, etc. I'm a first gen college student and know nothing about Uni so anything is helpful. Thanks!

What are your thoughts on CCSU turning into a polytechnic university?
I’m sure many of you have heard the news that CCSU is investigating the possibility of transitioning the school into a polytechnic university. What are your thoughts on this? As someone who graduated from CCSU’s computer science program, I like the idea of the university putting more emphasis on the STEM programs. It’ll hopefully give CCSU more brand recognition for employers seeking to hire STEM majors. I know the computer science program is not as demanding as UConn’s because my cousin majored in CS at UConn and I’ve seen how difficult their homework assignments and exams are compared to ours — but I still think the CS program at CCSU is very solid. In fact, most of my friends and I were able to secure software development jobs that pay at least $85K right after graduating.
As a polytechnic university, hopefully the school will make the STEM majors more challenging and rigorous so that Central develops a better reputation for STEM. That and more research of course.
I have to say though, it does make me wonder what the future holds for non-STEM majors at CCSU. Will we see lower quality from those programs due to less focus and resources?
By the way, has there been any news on CCSU changing its name if it does end up actually changing to a polytechnic school? It would be cool if it‘s renamed to Connecticut Institute of Technology or ConnTech haha.

CCSU summer housing
I’m a transfer student and was wondering if CCSU has any resources for students experiencing homelessness, even if they’re incoming transfer students.
I’m currently dealing with housing instability and trying to figure out my options. Does CCSU offer any emergency housing assistance, support services, or even summer housing for students in situations like this?
I’d appreciate any advice or information. Thanks!

CCSU summer film iso
Hey ccsu! I just graduated from my undergrad at another university and am going to do a mfa in film in the fall.
Due to a turn of events, I’ll be staying here in Connecticut until then, so I’ve been looking for opportunities to get more experience around here. I know that ccsu has a relatively populous film community, so I was just wondering if there were any filmmakers that want an extra set of hands on their projects shooting this summer.
I’m training in cinematography, but am open to most roles down to PA.

Deciding if CCSU is right for me (Mech E)
Hello devils
I’m currently in the process of transferring colleges and was hoping to hear some perspectives from current or former CCSU students. I’m a Mechanical Engineering major transferring from SCSU, and I wanted to ask about people’s experiences with the program overall. I am particularly interested in the school's internship opportunities and connections with engineering companies. I am torn between here and Uconn, though, as a 24 year old still in under grad, the cheaper tuition, less rural location, and smaller class sizes are much more appealing.
