Homecoming and family-oriented programming are recurring opportunities for University of New Haven students, alumni, and visitors to gather around campus events and Chargers athletics. The precise schedule and activities change from year to year.
Welcome and orientation programming serves a different purpose: it introduces new students to academic expectations, campus resources, and one another. Student organizations and university offices also organize performances, cultural programs, and community events during the academic year. For a prospective student, the current events calendar gives a more reliable picture of what is happening during a visit than an older list of annual traditions.
The University of New Haven offers student housing, including coeducational accommodations, as well as campus dining. Residence options and meal-plan requirements can differ by building, class year, and contract.
Students considering campus housing should review the residence application, deadlines, deposit terms, and assignment policies for their entry year; the existence of housing does not, by itself, guarantee a preferred room or placement. Residence facilities are reported to have high-speed internet access. Commuters and students living off campus should compare meal-plan options with how often they expect to eat on campus.
The reported annual room and board charge provides a budgeting reference, not a quote for every residence and dining combination. Students should compare the actual housing contract and meal plan before committing, particularly if they expect to stay locally during breaks or need a particular accommodation.
