The professors at Quinnipiac University are extremely helpful. Sure, you'll find an exception to that rule, but I have found that the majority of teachers excel at aiding their students in their education, and personal growth. I dare say that in my freshman year at QU I learned more than I did through four years in high school. The classes are well directed and thorough.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
Everyone will tell you how amazing college is, and I never believed the hype. You hope for it, but rarely expect anything to be just THAT good. Quinnipiac exceeded my every hope. The school's reputation is a bunch of wealthy, preppy teens running around, however you'd be surprised at how many students who attend QU are genuinely friendly, helpful, and fun people. From move-in to summer you will constantly be meeting new people who truly enhance your time at college.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Quinnipiac has the potential to drain your bank account. The school has a very pricey tuition, one that can daunt even the wealthiest parents. We pay almost as much as many of the private ivy league schools - and it's completely worth it!! Nearly everyone at school will agree, they'd agree to have a ton of student loan debt once they graduate then ever transfer out. It's an amazing school, one that's worth every penny.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Make sure you fill out your FASFA, and check out all the prospective scholarship and loan opportunities! Go into school with an open mind, and try to befriend your roommates from the start- no one wants to live with someone they do not get along with. Manage your Qcard money well in the cafe - many freshman boys ran out of money too quickly. Bring a fan or two for your room, it can get pretty hot during the summer months.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
People who don't want to walk twenty minutes for class - QU is for you. The campus is the perfect size - it'll take you 15 min to cross from one end to the other, even though it's rare to have to actually make that walk. We're a small school, 6,000 students right now, so you will consistently see people you know which is preferable for students who like knowing a lot of people. Also, our nursing program is one of the best.
