Am I "too smart" for UConn?

Take some time and look into the Honors program. I don’t know if your SAT score would be high enough to get in the program, but all freshman Honors Program students live in the same dorm and take honors classes and seminars. Most kids in honors have full or half tuition merit scholarships.

UCONN is becoming more selective. With the economy the way it is, families that might have sent their very talented students to the more exclusive privates or public ivys 6 years ago now send their kids here. If you want to go to graduate school, minimizing or eliminating debt for your undergrad education is smart.
