I dont mean to dissuade you but, the issue with UHart is that they charge a full private university education price but they dont totally provide a private university standard of excellence. They dont really rank nationally or even really regionally and the list of notable alumni is fairly short. CCSU which is nearby has roughly the same standard of education with similar acceptance and graduation rates with half the endowment and 1/4th the cost.

With all that said, if you like the place and have a scholarship than by all means go to the school of your choice. The place I work at does actively recruit from CCSU and UHart, but CCSU does have a bachelors in marketing degree rather than just a concentration.

Looks like it is a B.S. in Business Administration and you take the marketing courses in your junior and senior year.

This page has the University statement about the school but that isn't really helpful.

What are the reasons for choosing the school? There are probably better schools. Although, I'm not sure how I feel about having more marketing graduates in the world. You should use your powers for good.

Outside of super COVID times, I've had no trouble getting an Uber/Lyft (always compare!) for the late flight. They tend to surge at that time though as there are 3 (I think) flights that come in close to each other near midnight.

Same, except I’m occasionally Tuesday or Wednesday on one of the Delta flights out at 545/6 lol. The last time I had an Uber ready for en route and he canceled when about 5 mins away, I had to change plans and drive. Luckily precheck only had a few people in line otherwise I would have been really tight for time.

I've had trouble getting Ubers too BDL from Glastonbury. I'm usually on a 6am flight Monday morning and a couple of times have had to scramble and get in the car to drive myself.

So much easier to step out of an Uber and walk directly to precheck.

Curious to know how you know this is accurate. I’ve had a tough time getting an Uber from BDL to Glastonbury after 11, I gave up on Uber after a few long waits. Now I usually just pay the parking garage fees, leaving my car there to drive home. Also, OP - where are you going to from bdl? The further away your destination is, the less likely you’ll find a driver (my own experience only).
