Admissions Overview
UConn Waterbury operates with open admission, accepting 97.91% of applicants. This means nearly every student who applies gets in, making it an accessible entry point into the UConn system. The middle 50% of students score between 990-1230 on the SAT, with an average of 1110. These scores reflect the campus's role as a stepping stone for students who may not qualify for the main Storrs campus initially. The school seeks motivated commuter students from the greater Waterbury area who want a quality UConn education in a smaller setting. Many students use this campus to prove themselves academically before potentially transferring to other UConn locations.
