20 Best Masters Programs In New Haven, CT (2022 Updated)

This place is a perfect example of “you get what you pay for”. I attended September 2009 – May 2018 (with a 3 year gap from 2012-2015). The hospitality teachers and department head were wonderful, and a lot of my general Ed teachers were amazing too and I have nothing but great things to say about the teachers. However, the registrar office and academic advisors were a nightmare to deal with. No one ever smiles, my message NEVER got relayed to the right person, and it was such a headache to deal with offices equivalent to dealing with the DMV. They also claimed that when you graduate you can transfer your credits to a state college which is false. Some of the credits transferred, but classes like Math don’t transfer and I have to take a placement test to get into the same exact math class I took at Gateway and passed the class with an A. The bookstore staff was the most incapable, rude, useless group of people. Graduation was a completely unorganized joke – they told graduates to arrive 2 hours early to stand in a parking lot with no instruction and 1 porta potty for about 300 people. They also only announce 1 of your degrees – so if you have 3 degrees they won’t even take the extra 5 seconds to announce all 3 (I thought graduation was supposed to recognize your achievements?) I would have never wasted my time going to graduation if I knew how pathetic it would be. Parking on campus in New Haven was crazy and the lot constantly overflows into the Temple Street lot so you get to walk in stairways that smell like urine with bums roaming the lot and drunk people stumbling to their car after your class at 9:30 at night with no security guards to get to your car. Literally no security whatsoever like your completely on your own in a public lot in the heart of New Haven. Like most schools, they don’t allow weapons inside the building so you don’t even have a way to defend yourself if you get approached in the lot which will happen at some point. There were also hospitality classes that I had to buy things out of pocket and was promised reimbursement that never happened.Nina Tiso

I loved working with the children in the Early Learning Center, but the adults in the classroom didn't really treat me that well. They didn't really accommodating me that well when it came to tasks such as setting the table for breakfast,lunch, and snack. A coworker got nasty because I wasnt moving fast enough for her. I'm visually impaired and I have to take my time because of my vision. I had to complain about this coworker 2 times. Another thing that didnt make sense was I had to walk to the other side of campus to eat lunch for my 30 minute break. The teacher of the classroom would get mad at me for being late because I am a slow eater and I cant move fast again because of my bad vision. student teachers aren't allowed to eat in the teachers lounge. I shouldn't have had to complain to my boss about eating in the teacher lounge. This place needs to be more accommodating to student teachers with disabilities and staff needs to be more compassionate. I am very glad that I don't work at this place anymore! I wish the adults would learn compassion from the children!Jasmyn Polite

Beautiful atmosphere. I was in their old building on Long wharf years ago, and seeing how they've grown and progressed into what I consider a university now, is life changing for the people attending this college. For a community college, they offer so much for the students with assistance as well as their educational endeavors. Their cafe offers delicious varieties which includes a wide range of healthy choices. Very inviting environment for the students to learn in. I get the feeling that this University cares about the students that attend itDelbra Wilson

Few opportunities come around that are as life-changing as the Silver Scholar program at SOM was for me – the Silver Scholars program is for students straight out of undergrad to pursue an MBA at SOM. I matriculated in 2012 with the class of 2014 and, due to the parameters of the program, spent two years working full-time at my dream company, and then returned to SOM to complete my final year of courses and study and graduate in 2016. I believe that the Silver Scholars program is representative of the forward-looking direction of SOM and the fact that the institution is not afraid to take risks and innovate. Over these four years that I was in the program, I was able to see SOM evolve into an even more global business school, with the maturation of the Global Network for Advanced Management. During my second year, I was proud to count over 50% of the student population from different countries, providing a distinctly global feel. Many of my closest friends were from foreign countries and now I feel grateful to have friends from all over the world. The most remarkable thing about SOM is the community – not just our small and large learning teams, our cohort, our class, or our school, but the fact that SOM strives to be the most closely-integrated business school with it's parent university, which translates into one of the highest percentages of joint-degree candidates and the flexibility to take as many of our electives outside of SOM as you wish. I made countless of friends from SOM, but also from Yale College, the Jackson Institute, the School of Public Health, and the Law School, just to name a few. This, combined with the immensely tight-knit alumni community that has among the highest rates of annual alumni contributions to their alma mater, makes me confident that I made the right choice – a choice that will continue to pay dividends and a school that I can count on for the duration of my professional career and beyond.Jefri Tamba

Gorgeous facility and a great program to boot. Building has huge glass walls and a nice corridor which is used for several events. The architecture was built with the intention of reflecting their philosophies of transparency, which seems to hold true, parking can be an issue for nonstudents, have to park in another garage across the street and walk over or parallel parking.Hisham

A beautiful modern building. Something the community may not realize is there are a lot of events, seminars, speeches, etc. that are available to the public. You can find information about registering for these events at Yale's School of Management website.Kaleb Nygaard

I went here for my first two years of college. Here's what I've noticed. – The people here are great, for the most part. – UNH emphasizes on a welcoming environment – There's always new development like the Bergami center which is a very nice looking building. – I lived in Westside and Winchester halls. Both are good! – I was in Engineering which I struggled in, but when I changed my major to accounting I had no struggle. – I just really wish UNH was more helpful with finance and mental health. – They were WAY too strict with Covid. Yes, I understand the dangers, but we're adults you have to remember. They threatened to suspend if you violate rules, even accidentally. They also quarantined my entire hall in 2020 just because one student got covid. I really didn't believe they had to be that harsh. – They were also TERRIBLE with communication when moving in for my 2nd year (because of covid), and I had to spend a month trying to figure out when to move in. – The Accessibility resources center is a good place, but once they forbid me from using a calculator on a chemistry exam in March of 2020. Everybody but the ARC staff thought that was terrible. – Their math department was terrible. The professors meant well, but it was not taught in an interesting way. – On a positive note, they are fantastic at safety. In January of 2021 I got cyberbullied by someone in the school who made threats including a death threat. The ResLife dept. handled it very well and the police took it very seriously and found the guy doing it, someone who I thought was a friend. He was suspended. Overall, UNH is not perfect, but their heart is in the right place. I didn't leave for any of these reasons listed, that's another story entirely. But if you are Nick, Chris, Lucas, Antonia, Victoria, Makayla, Jenna, Galianna, Alexa, or Patrick, I miss you!James Shewan

I attended UNH between spring 2019 and January 2021 (two years) as a transfer, and earned a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice (Investigative Services Concentration). I am giving this school 3 stars because excluding a very good academic experience, there were too many low moments I experienced at UNH for me to give this review more stars. These low moments range from lack of opportunities for commuter students (which is what I was for 3/4 semesters), existing social circles that prevent prospective students from feeling any sense of belonging, the school's fostering and promotion of the word "LatinX", and other things. (Mainly because I am a Latino/Hispanic male originally from South America, and don't see how the word is applicable to the Central/South American community). The pandemic did affect the college experience in spring 2020, but my experience was already going downhill well before this. For these reasons, I feel as though this was an era of my life that never happened. Above all, I find it difficult to talk about this era and school in more positive (than negative) ways. I do recommend this school for my degree. My professors did an excellent job of teaching me. But it all does come at a cost because setbacks or letdowns (described above) can quickly affect a student's experience. Likewise, I am considering graduate school here because my professional job search opened my eyes to how graduate degrees are becoming the new standard for the U.S workforce. Hope this helps.Marc Conrad

The beauty of this school is not just about the academic excellence and great facilities, but the diversity; it’s almost as if every nationality is represented here. Everyone is friendly from the students to the academic staffers, non-academic staffers, to the school security operatives. When I visited this school I observed wheelchair accessibility is greatly adhered to in this institution. I also noticed there’s a 24/7 Wells Fargo Bank ATM point on this campus. Consequently, you will always have access to cash. When you school here you also get to enjoy the magnificence of New Haven, West Haven and most of all New York City, since it’s just less than an hour ride with your car or via the Metro-North Train. This school is pretty close to road and be easily noticed from a vehicle in normal traffic. #NewHaven #WestHaven #UNH #University #AcademicsExcellence #CT #Connecticut #OnGoogleMaps #Google #LetsGuide #GreatFacilities #WheelchairAccessible #KnowledgeU-roy Felix Agboli

Although my professors have been awesome, the university as a whole is horribly disorganized and mismanaged. The various staff of different departments are uniformly rude and uninformed. I've gotten wrong and/or misleading information on basic protocol literally EVERY SINGLE TIME I've spoken with someone (where do I submit work study requests? Can I still carry student insurance if I'm part-time?) Regarding the insurance, I was told "yes" by 2 different pople. HOWEVER, the answer to that is it's automatically cancelled when you register online for classes and it is received as part-time, so then you have to re-enroll as a new client at a higher rate. I found this out when I was trying to fill a prescription and after much investigation found out that my insurance had been cancelled. This is one of the MANY problems I've experienced with Southern administration. Equally as faulty, is the technology "services" that Southern uses. Windows 7 computers in the computer labs that take (no joke) 5-20 mins to log you on if there are more than 3 people in the room and remote printing that requires an installation on your laptop every time you want to use it. This is recommend since you'll otherwise sit for 20 mins for the lab computer to log on and then progress to opening and printing a file at the speed of dial-up. If you need to reach anyone (computing services, the bookstore) for questions, you'll be strained to find contact info outside of the (203)392-SCSU main office number. A detailed Google search rarely finds the phone numbers associated with specific offices. Most recently, for the past month as Southern has started the fall semester, their network has become so overloaded that the mail server periodically un-syncs all of my devices from their email (iPhone, Mac) so I don't get mail or know that an email I sent never actually sent, since it doesn't appear in ANY outbox or draft folder from any device. But since it happens off-and-on, as the SCSU network comes and goes as it pleases, I've not known about the missed emails until someone tells about a group email I missed. Lastly, and kinda most importantly, Southern's crap internet system occasionally doesn't recognize my password for Bannerweb, email, and Blackboard. Confoundingly, this doesn't occur on these applications all in one sitting. MANY TIMES I've sat and typed my password into Blackboard 5+ times and magically after repeated entries it suddenly works!!! Always had the same problem logging into "myscsu" and trying to get my email back online to the Southern server. Recommendation: If you're enrolling as a full-time undergraduate, I would HIGHLY recommend looking for a school elsewhere because you're DEFINITELY not getting your money's worth at this institution. Note: they also have no funding for student work study anymore, so don't count on that for extra money/tuition expenses. If you're taking classes part-time, for a job or continuing education, it will be a frustrating experience, but not a total waste of money. Botton line, I rated 2 stars because the professors and experiences with classmates have been awesome this past year, but the university as a whole is beyond frustrating.Jennifer Vollmer

im usually not the type of person to be negative and leave lengthy reviews but this is so necessary being that im so extremely disappointed with this school! I went for a tour in November of 2017 fell in love with the campus so I decided to apply as a transfer student in April of 2018! I sent in my fee waiver form April 20th I was told it takes 2-3weeks to hear back from the school, ok cool! here it is a MONTH later still no response, nor any communication to even let me know they've received my fee waiver form and that id be hearing from them soon or whatever the case may be just complete silence!!! not to mention the students that answer the phone are very rude and snappy! I withdrew my application and applied to Iona college! I applied with them got an acceptance letter, got my financial situation settled, paid my deposit all within a week, easy as 1,2,3 as it SHOULD be. Its an excellent school with a countless number of awards, i feel as though the process of applying to schools should be as easy and stress free as possible! Im extremely dissatisfied with my experience with this school it literally had everything I was looking for campus wise, but everything happens for a reason and being that Im going into the education field I've been told from numerous amounts of educators that im better off getting a job, with a degree from Iona under my belt. The purpose of this review is not to trash talk or to persuade anyone into not applying here but rather to allow others to be aware of what they may possibly come into contact with when applying to this school and perhaps a change can come about for the next student. : ) Blessings.Alexa Griffin

If I could give Southern zero stars I absolutely would. They are extremely unorganized, they don't care about you as a student AT ALL.. They cancelled a BIO class that I really needed a week before classes start. I emailed the head of the department asking for a solution and all I got was a too bad.. Now because of this I have to attend an extra semester and will not be graduating in time.. They offer classes at odd times which makes it hard for you to sign up for classes back to back, so far the professors I had don't care about you and are not understanding.. I graduated from Western Connecticut and I never had a problem with them and now because of Southern I have to spend more of my time and money that I don't have…Barbara Monteiro

Was in a package they offer for graduate school applications. Horrible experience that made me ask for a refund. Terrible and lazy mentors that always blamed the mistakes on the client. Only one female coach assigned to me was helpful, but overall the company was fake and corporate. The service charge was almost $10k, but it is worth way less—a total waste of money and energy. Very unprofessional and manipulative. The company refunded me half of the money after having a draining and toxic interaction with their legal team. Overall, paying someone to look over your essay at other tutoring websites would be WAY BETTER than paying the coaches here.Han Liu

I very highly recommend InGenius Prep. Their team is incredibly dedicated, hard-working, and focused on helping their clients. Their approach is thoughtful and the guidance they provide is precise. Their intimate knowledge and understanding of exactly what admissions officers seek in a candidate (check their credentials!) enable them to give advice that is uniquely effective. If you're serious about giving yourself the best possible chance of 'getting in' to the schools you plan to apply to, you should check these guys out.Marcus Bradley

There's simply no better place to go if you have a goal and want to achieve it. I've personally seen the admissions experts at InGenius Prep work miracles with students that I would have loved to had the opportunity to take advantage of when I was in high school or college. Their candidacy-building services are truly trail-blazing in helping students mold themselves in unique ways as optimal candidates for their dream schools. Can't wait to wait to help InGenius expand to help tens of thousands more students every year!David Mainiero

Staff was polite, test was well-administered, both practice and real exam. They gave me room to take breaks on the test to keep my cool and I passed my test nearly 100%! Give them and yourself a chance, your life will be better for it.Cassandra Lone (Astronastra)

The Yale Universities including Yale Law School is known worldwide for exceptional education standards their students. Fundamentally, it is more about fitting the mold of an occupation and more about understanding comprehensively the core foundation. I want to go to Yale Law School and study Media and Entertainment related laws and codes of conduct after graduating from CUNY, in NYC; SUNY of NYS and going to flight school. There are homophones in the English language and I think contextually; I will be able to bridge the gaps of communicative disconnects while fortifying studies in other, comparatively relative areas. I can't wait to enroll!DBD D’Amonte Brown

Stunning campus. Reminds me of Oxford. Unfortunately student campus tours were cancelled after we made plans to visit, so we created our own itinerary. Lots of areas were closed off to outsiders, and I watched as students entered through large gates with key-in access from their phones. Only downside of Yale is New Haven itself. Outside of the Yale campus, New Haven can be a little sketchy in some areas and I would advise caution when roaming.Avalus

Full disclosure: I didn't go to school here, so I can't speak to the academics. I did work with an alumnus and he was a cool guy, so I'm guessing this university is a great place. The campus is beautiful in an old, classic way. It's so stunning, I'd say it merits a visit on its own. I had a great time scrolling through campus and snapping pics. The museum on campus was free admission and had some impressive displays. All in all, I liked Yale.Alex Kolkena

Can be compared to Princeton University. Art style for even sport stadium. And it is not too big so it is easy to walk through the campus. However, no many places open during the pandemic. Maybe I will visit again to enjoy the shows thereDr. Lee talking Skincare

My friends and I went to go play some soccer on your field and the lacrosse team asked us to leave which we did but while we were changing into our normal shoes the team was shooting lacrosse balls at us and was saying/chanting racial slurs like "Trump", and "Fu*k Mexicans". They threw a ball at me and it almost hit me. Luckily, I had a bag with me and the bag stop the ball from hitting me. After they called security, they watched as the college team kept saying things, yet they did not stop them, and the coach didn't either. We tried to make a report but the school is closed due to Easter break. I hope the school does something about this because it was a completely disgusting behavior and should be taken seriously. I just know my friends and everyone I know will not be going to that school ever again.Ashley Portillo

I visited Albertus Magnus College. It welcomes every National Origin, Race, and Religion with open arms. Would recommend attending Albertus Magnus College over Quinnipiac University. Albertus Magnus College cares about students and alumni from foreign countries. National Origin, Race, and Creed is a top priority to Albertus Magus College. Albertus Magnus College is a better school than Quinnipiac University. I have first hand experience of Quinnipiac University. QU Office of Public Safety Albertus Magnus Alumni Edgar Rodriguez and Higher Authorities John Lahey, Lynn Bushnell, John Morgan, Mark Thompson, Donald Weinbach, Kim Riga, and Dianna Pategas will discriminate and have hatred in their heart if your Indian, Chinese, or Black.Rajeev Pahuja, MBA

If you want your kid to be disrespectful…to be high and drunk and smoking on a sporting event, this is your college. Security is a joke. They are afraid of the students. They don't even take pride in their school, throwing their garbage and disposable masks on the ground. Security smell like booze. Very disappointing. I was asked to bring my vaccination card and advices that they enforce mask wearing for all events. Yet no one had masks. If they can not follow their own rules, how would you expect them to protect your children??Ingrid Gonzalez

Even though I don’t go to Yale and am not a medical student, I am concerned about one of the faculty members that is teaching at Yale School of Medicine, Thomas Kimberly. He is (or at least was) a Lecturer in Emergency Medicine there, and the reason that concerns me is because back when he practiced medicine, when I was a patient at Yale New Haven Hospital's ER with clear signs of heart failure, Thomas Kimberly (who was an APRN at the time and was treating me) didn't order the proper diagnostic tests for someone with heart failure symptoms. My diagnosis was missed (because of his mistake) and I was admitted "for observation." A few days later in the hospital, once my heart condition was discovered, one of the doctors told me that "a mistake has been made, my condition was overlooked." The doctor (who informed me that a mistake had been made) told me that if the person who saw me in the ER (Thomas Kimberly) ordered the proper diagnostic tests, my heart condition would have been found/diagnosed immediately, and I would have been prescribed the heart medications I needed right away… rather than a few days later. So, I gave my medical records to a lawyer, and he had other doctors look at it. They came to the same conclusion… that not ordering the proper diagnostic tests delayed my condition from being discovered, resulting in me not receiving the heart medications I needed until later. If Thomas Kimberly is still teaching there, or anywhere for that matter, hopefully he teaches his students that when a patient has clear symptoms of heart failure, make sure to order the proper diagnostic tests for someone with heart failure symptoms, rather than mess up (like he did) by not doing so.Connor Etter

Elite, Prestigious and one of the Best School of medicine. Yale School of Medicine graduates go on to become leaders in academic medicine and health care System. I like its unique curriculum, known as Yale System of Medical Education. It is one of the best school of medicine in the world. Its teaching hospital, Yale New Heven Hospital regularly ranks among the best hospitals in U.S .Muhammad Khan

They allow their Assistant Professor of Pasychiatry (BandyLee) to use her political biases as a call for the emergency detention of a president for evaluation. She should be terminated and the school boycotted for employing this type of person. This school cannot be trusted to educate people in a non-partisan, responsible manner.Laura Lamb

Fantastic pizza, fantastic people, fantastic college. If you want the full Berkeley experience, grab some pizza and ice cream, and head down to the buttery for some ping pong and pool. Then head over to Dean B’s office for some candy and advice! A big shout out to all the student leaders and faculty who run BK 🙂Elliot Britton
