UB is essentially a diverse small friendly community providing a great atmosphere with much to benefit and learn from. The programs as well as courses satisfy my academic endeavor for the pursuit of knowledge. Living on campus is an individualistic adventure for growth and maturity through responsibility.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Take a tour, meet your future advisers, and settle down with everything this school has to offer for you.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Providing you initially with an 11k scholarship, University of Bridgeport instantly puts your academics first as it should. By doing this they set priorities and expectations for you to commit to. My learning experience at UB by far has been the most thorough in helping me achieve my career. Many classes provide strict course rules to create that responsibility that many slackers need in order to be able to have a pleasurable learning experience. Courses range from difficulty and push the students to study their hardest in order to excel in the class. Teachers vary from lenient to harsh, but the variety is what makes everyone's experience different. I can say that from the lenient teachers you learn the best possible ways to survive college efficiently and the harsh teachers have you learn the effort crunch time requires you to put in. All in all it helps you understand that at the end of the day, the degree you earn is more than just a piece of paper; its a symbol of all that you have come to learn thanks to outstanding performance and knowledge you've embraced.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
With each dormitory carrying different personalities, you'll be sure to make new friends in no time. The housing conditions aren't the best you've ever seen, but the standards for living there assure that you're on top of your academics. The RA's and RD's assure your success and safety anyway they can to make your stay plausible. they are always open to suggestions and are at your attention whenever needed. Maintenance isn't the best, but unlike most other schools they try to provide cleanliness on a daily basis cleaning our hallways and spacious bathrooms. Co-Ed is also a plus as being able to live with opposite genders creates a sense of equality and boost in self-monitoring(in a good way). The balanced part about the co-ed aspect is that genders are separated by floors as to not create too much complaint. Each hall also has their own game room providing a pool table as well as pong. Their are several dorms to choose from each having its separate rules and living standards, they are placed in separate locations which find convenience to certain parts of the campus. Each having different living conditions which set them apart from every other dorm hall.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
There are two dining options on campus; one Marina, the school cafeteria, providing to all those with a meal plan, and the hUB which is a sociable dining establishment. The school cafeteria often at times lacks in variety, and with that becomes a dull routine of same foods after every few weeks. Nevertheless, it provides enough resources for innovation and allows students to be able to cook their own meals there from time to time. They're open conveniently for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Although they lack in food variety they surely make up for it; personnel are very friendly are in touch with their students, they are open to suggestions as well as planning events. This adds to friendly community aspect which I stated previously, every individual on campus plays their role in bettering the school as a whole. For those times when the school cafeteria is closed, the hUB is open to students providing delicious quality meals that can be bought using dining dollars or cash, the only downfall being that they don't accept debit. The hUB provides students with an establishment to socialize in and hang out from the hours of 10am-11pm.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
The Student Programming Board here are always looking to entertain the students however they can. They provide events and activities for students to attend and enjoy themselves. The Student Center is also a place where students find themselves meeting new people in the pool hall, or even the bowling alley that's provided. As for nightlife, many students find themselves being able to go out to local clubs to party as they please.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
This school provides frats and sororities open to all students. They help with fundraisers and give students an incomparable social experience. They are very friendly and open to all those willing to join.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
At the beginning of the school you are provided with a PAL to secure your safety on campus, what this is a button that when pressed will track your location within a radius of the campus and security will be sent to locate you. Security is constantly patrolling the areas on campus on bikes, as well as cars. There hasn't been any recent dangers occurring on campus, but it's a good idea to carry around your PAL at all times in case of an unfortunate event.
