University of Connecticut

UConn is Connecticut's public land-grant research university, founded in 1881 in Storrs, with more than 33,500 students from over 80 nations and over 700 student organisations. As a public institution it charges international students the out-of-state rate, roughly double the Connecticut resident rate — out-of-state tuition and fees run near USD 44,400 against about USD 21,700 for residents, with a total cost of attendance around USD 63,400. All full-time students are required to carry health insurance, which a secondary source prices at USD 2,973 a year for every student regardless of status. A secondary source indicates UConn offers only a FALL intake for undergraduate international students, which would materially constrain timing — that must be confirmed, since another source describes both autumn and spring deadlines.
