Campus Overhead Shot
No matter how you look at it, our campus is breathtaking! Conn has a unique waterfront location, with a beautiful 750-acre arboretum, a central quad, and a great view of Long Island Sound. It’s a friendly, close-knit community where you can feel at home.
Students performing in an a cappella group
Conn has seven a cappella groups, including The Shwiffs, which has been around since 1944. Not into a cappella? No worries—there are over 80 student-run clubs and organizations to explore!
The exterior of the Athey Center.
The newly renovated Athey Center is the heart of our arts programs. It's where creativity comes to life, with top artists-in-residence, cutting-edge performances, and many opportunities for collaboration and learning.
Boats on the water.
Our updated waterfront has it all: top-notch sailing and rowing facilities, an outdoor classroom for marine science, research and conservation, a training area for outdoor adventures, and a beautiful spot to relax. Plus, we're the only NESCAC school on the water!
Students in the COM 310 Robotics class.
Wondering what you can study? We offer 46 majors and 49 minors, and you can even create your own! Our unique program, Connections, lets you explore your interests, ask big questions, and build a portfolio of knowledge and experience to carry into your career and life.

The lifelong friendships you'll make at Conn can start as early as our Welcome Weekend orientation. You’ll have lots of opportunities to connect with other students both on and off the field.
Graduates process out of Commencement.
One year after graduation, 95% of Conn grads are working or in grad school. Around 90% say Conn’s award-winning, four-year career program helped them land their first job. Many go on to build successful careers in fields like government, the arts, medicine, and journalism.
