Hoos Connected

UVA attracts students from all over Virginia, the U.S., and even the world. Consequently, every student that comes here has a unique perspective and experience. Hoos Connected at UVA brings together these diverse perspectives to discuss what we think is the most important aspect of life: CONNECTION. 

What brings us together? What can keep us apart? What do we have in common beneath the surface? 

In Hoos Connected, you'll meet with a small group of peers (8-10 students) each week to engage in activities and discussions that get at these important questions. Each group is led by two trained, upper-class student facilitators, who guide you through conversations that go beneath the surface level. 


UVA Clubs and Activities

What moves you—athletics? Literature? Chess? Salsa dancing? At UVA, you’ll find a wealth of opportunities to create your own unique experiences, find your niche and follow your passions. From arts and athletic events to over 800 clubs and organizations, the only option you won’t have is boredom.  Visit the clubs and activities page to learn more.
