A University of New Haven education extends far beyond the classroom. You’ll help lead student organizations, attend lectures and campus programs, live in our residence halls, participate in Greek Life, and cheer on the Charger sports teams.

We’re about more than just academics at the University of New Haven. Visit the vibrant campus, and you’ll find a remarkable campus community and an activity for every interest.

Just ask the students. In the University of New Haven’s profile in The 2018 Princeton Review, a student said, "It is absolutely impossible to be bored, because there is always something to do." Another student said, "Every student is involved."

The life you lead outside of the classroom is just as vital to your college experience as your coursework – and studies have proven it.
