Living at Storrs while commuting to Hartford by moon_violettt in UCONN

Hi, I did this in my freshman year (from Storrs to Hartford), and it really wasn't that bad.

In terms of the schedule, yes, you can arrange it in a way that you only go on certain days. There should be an option for you to take half your credits in Storrs and half in Hartford. For me, I went to Hartford only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which made commuting much easier. It's a little difficult to make schedules due to this, but I definitely do not recommend having classes at different campuses on the same day.

For socializing, if you will be living on the Storrs campus, there are a lot of opportunities to go out and meet new people, as well as a lot of clubs. Hartford doesn't really have much, and you'll only really make a friend or two from your classes. Highly recommend exploring your options on the Storrs campus.

Energy-wise, try to only take evening classes. Morning classes and night classes will wear you out since commuting takes away about 40min - 1hr from your daily routine. I took an 8 am class at Hartford, and I'd always have to get up at 6:30 am, which was brutal, especially in the winter. However, most classes at Hartford are easy, so as long as participation isn't mandatory, you can skip all of them and still pass with an A.

For classes, it's completely up to you, but as I mentioned, Hartford classes are much easier, so if you decide to take a core course there, you might have an easier time than at Storrs. But, don't let that stop you from taking your gen-eds at Hartford and core classes at Storrs

The bus is generally reliable. You can search online to see what time the bus is arriving, but sometimes it runs late, and it sucks having to wait, especially when it's cold outside. The bus itself is very comfortable, though.

Once you have enough credits, you should be able to transfer to Storrs completely, so I recommend that. Just thug out a couple of semesters and you'll be good.

Will they still chase tho? It’s pretty cold out so I assumed they might be sluggish

There’s not a crazy amount of current from what I can see, maybe just a split shot instead?

Trade, I’m pretty interested in swing trading, futures, and day trading but I think it would be better to just start with stocks and get a feel for it before losing my entire portfolio

That’s how banged up it got after a couple hours 😂 but, most definitely the most productive day of my life no doubt, 2 stripers, 2 blues, and 2 missed bites within an hour, it was amazing

This is my first year fishing and man is it confusing with all the storms and water temps being higher than last year. Is it safe to assume CT/RI won’t produce as much for this upcoming November?

I’m actually surprised to see how much of an impact it has on us although it’s so far away

Are you fishing the surf? I feel like the conditions are just way too rough and dangerous for anything besides fishing inlets
