Graduate students contribute greatly to making UHart the vibrant community that it is. During their time here, our graduate students enrich our lives and then go forward to continue on in their successful careers.
We know our graduate students have a lot on their plate, so we've developed a number of ways students can feel a part of the campus community while also achieving their goals of personal and professional growth.
Health & Well Being Resources
We offer many services and activities to allow you to take a break from academics and focus on your mental health and well-being.
Sports & Fitness
Inside our 13,000-square-foot Sports Center, you can work out in our newly renovated fitness facility or take a dip in our swimming pool. Facilities include a weight room, a basketball court, treadmills, bikes, and ellipticals. We also offer a wide range of sports-related activities, including soccer, flag football, softball, and volleyball.

Graduate Housing
The University of Hartford offers several on-campus housing options for graduate students, including apartments in Park River and our recently renovated Village Apartments.

- Graduate only apartment style units which include single and double bedrooms, bathrooms, and shared living spaces.
- Two-bedroom/one-bath and three-bedroom/two-bath layouts are available.
- Centrally located on campus in convenient locations close to classes, lab spaces, sports center, Commons, and the library.
- Fully furnished spaces, including bedroom, living room, and kitchen furniture, plus kitchen appliances and a microwave.
- Utilities included: water, electricity, heat, trash, internet, and laundry.
