UConn Bound Days

One of the best ways to decide whether a school is the right fit is to experience it for yourself.

Admitted students are invited to join us at our main campus in Storrs for UConn Bound Days, an open house opportunity designed to highlight the very best UConn has to offer. From faculty-led academic sessions and admissions presentations to campus tours and more, come discover what makes UConn one of the nation’s top public universities.

UConn Bound Days are available at all five UConn campuses.
