Review of Quincy University

from Quincy, IL

Describe your college in three sentences.

Quincy University is a campus near the Mississippi river and is gorgeous. The staff are all very friendly and willing to help many people when ever they need to or are needed. Like the staff the students are all very outgoing and willing to meet new people, after being accepted for the fall semester I am proud to say i'm a Quincy Hawk.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

I am going to be an incoming freshman this fall but I would really recommended getting a campus tour and not being afraid to ask questions. the staff will remember you and your name so don't forget that and everyone is super nice make arrangements to meet people before than so you can see them and get to make friendships before school starts.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

They know how to challenge you in a fun and interesting way that keeps your attention the whole time. The staff is also wiling to help if you don't understand which I think is a big plus.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

The dorms are amazing Garner currently has no central air but is getting it, and Padua hall is considered the haunted dorm but if you don't mind a school with a lot of history it is definitely the place to be.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

they have good food and meal plans they also have the Hawks Hangout which another great place to get food besides the cafe.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

There is Plenty to do whether it be in the music program or the athletics program. Maybe you aren't one for really competitive sports but you like to play they have intramural sports which are super fun to do as well.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

You will definitely get your moneys worth at QU whether it be threw the education or the physical side you will never say well i wish they had this, because if you can get enough people involved you might just create it. :)

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

there is a an arch type thing (cannot remember the name to save my life) on campus that if you walk through it is believed that you will not graduate on the time that you are suppose to.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Campus safety is off the hook. They are there for pretty much anything if you have something going on or you just want someone to walk with you on the way to class they are pretty much there for anything.
