Quinnipiac University Top Questions

I'm more than happy that I transferred to QU. It's a great school and i've met a lot of amazing people. It's beautiful and in a good area. There's tons of stuff to do both on and off campus all the time. Did I mention New Haven is famous for its section of little italy and their pizza? Sally's and Pepe's are amazing.

If you're looking for a huge bunch of stoners, keep looking. People smoke but it's not as much or as often as you would think. If you're looking for some shady coke heads, you can find them basically anywhere. Girls get drunk and throw up a lot, especially the freshmen. Sororities and fraternities were all lame when I went there, bitches and morons. Basically everyone drives something nice and everyone's white and preppy. Quinnipiac for a lot of people is the place to go because 1) you got a scholarship or 2) you didn't get into where you wanted.

chicks are hot and a majority

If you're looking for a well rounded college, this is the place for you. If you're looking for a specialized college for something like Health Sciences, Law, or Business, this is the school for you. The school is extremely absorbed in every sport except for football, but maintains their focus on academics. If you're looking for an "artsy" college, stay away.

The food plan is 950 a semester, easily spent in half the time planned as a regular meal of horrible food costs 15 dollars, which in essence is actually coming out of your pocket. the on campus catering service is nothing short of a complete rip off

The administration really makes the students angry because of the way they treat the students. They do not seem to care about us and it seems like they lie to incoming students to try to get them here. Some of the statistics they tell people are not exactly accurate, they try to always portray the university in a good light. The administration tried to censor the student newspaper by forcing faculty to not answer questions without first talking to the PR office. They also would not allow the newspaper to publish stories on their website when they break, instead they have to wait until the newspaper is published. This got attention from outside newspapers and the administration got angry at the editor of our newspaper for giving an interview. The student body that actually knew about this was very upset and threatened to protest the administration.

The only thing that is awkward is that the University seems to not like to feed us. A bit of an exaggeration, but they are the shortest college hours I've ever heard of.

all d1 sports teams, none that really stand out in thier confrences.

If you aren't a rich, beautiful, snobby girl you probably won't like it here. Everyone fits that stereotype perfectly and it makes life miserable when your not one of them. Everyone drinks and parties all the time and there is nothing to do if you dont drink. The housing shortage forces people into 8 person study lounges which makes life hell. It costs a ton of money to go here yet they barely give any finacial aid.

Parking sucks and so does the winter. This was my first semestewr and I liked most of it. Becoming more diverse is not necessarily a good thing.

The residence hallls are horrible. The administration put 7 or 8 people in a study lounge and called it a dorm room. The beds were set up like military barracks and ruined a lot of students' freshman year at the school. The security officers unlawfully harass and question students who have backpacks and believe many students to be smuggling drugs or aclohol that are heading back from the library The school makes for fun conversation as there is so much to make fun of.

Don't come here if academics are not your first priority. Also, don't come here without a good fake ID.

the cons i would say about qu are that the 60/40 girl to guy ratio is really noticable especially in the health science classes. You do meet guys, but its just a little different than the other majors. Also, we dont have a lot of sororeties and frats on campus because they arent allowed to have houses.

one of the only bad things about the campus tends to be the parking. if you live off campus it is nearly impossible to find a spot to park in under 7 mins on campus. so you need to give time to get to class then. i live 2 mins off campus and it can take me 20 mins to find a spot and walk to class (the walk is about 5 mins at most).

none.

there should be new ovens put into the dorms. We should get the money back from out Q-cards that we dont use at the end of the year. Its crap that we can get out money back. ITS OUR MONEY! If we dont use it we should get it back. espeically our Q cash.

I truely love Quinnipiac. I think it is a really great school, and it was the perfect fit for me.

I would not suggest going to Quinnipiac. The negative aspects of the school by far outweigh the positives and all in all, it is not a good time.

I wish I went somewhere else, it;s not worth the money. The campus is beautiful, the location, however it's not the college experience I hoped for.

As I'm sure most students do, there should not be an attendance policy mandatory at this university. We pay ALOT of money to go to that school and being told that if you miss more than three classes you will be dropped from the class and lose your money is disgusting considering we are adults, living on our own, who pay through the nose for school if we want to miss 5 or 7 classes our grade is our own responsiblity. And parking.
