The University of Connecticut has developed a strong reputation for excellence, earning distinction as one of the top public universities in the United States and named among the nation’s “Public Ivy” institutions. Perhaps even more legendary than the university’s academics and research capabilities is the powerhouse Huskies basketball program: The men’s and women’s teams have collectively brought home 21 NCAA titles, including four in a row from the women’s team.
Mansfield is very much a classic college town, with the student body nearly matching the local population in numbers and far enough removed from any large cities that the university serves as the primary cultural and economic hub in the community. The local nightlife is pretty spare (Ted’s Restaurant and Bar is a common hangout on the west side of campus), but the isolated location presents lots of opportunities to explore the surrounding nature preserves.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
