Quinnipiac is no good. Clearly, the other students who posted are right. Quinnipiac is simply a business which markets itself through its campus. Most of the students here are immature and do everything for image. I know kids who were nerds in high school and are now guido steroid takers because of Quinnipiac. Not everyone is guido, though. Most are not. The girls are usually obnoxious, rich whores from Greenwich (but claim they are from Westchester,) from Westchester and New Jersey (but claim they are from New York City,) and Long Island (who believe they are their own state.) The girls from Mass are just ugly and turn into wanna be guido whores even though they are ugly compared to the other girls. Quinnipiac is like high school all over again. Freshman and Sophomores will do the same thing every Thursday, depending on the quality of their fake ID. Everyone will not do much on fridays. And everyone will go to Toad's on saturdays. This really gets old after a while. Toads is overcrowded all the time for pretty much no reason at all. It's just a place for all the whores and desperate kids to get sweaty, grind, make out, and maybe fuck after if they get roofied (which traditionally happens at Toads.) The frats are completely gay at Quinnipiac, and the social scene is doing the cool thing (drinking and drugs!) to fit in. I've had some good teachers, which I have enjoyed, but this is not always the case. It's hard to get a good teacher if you don't get a good registration date, the cafeteria is barely ever opened (and the food is always the same.) The sports suck, Quinnipiac is a fake school with a horrible Bursar's office and Financial Aid department that do not work together. If you show up with a blank check, you will automatically be in. The school is full of shit if it says it is "need blind." Go to this school if you are a bitch, a whore, want to think your cool, or like herpes. You will not fit in if you are a minority, although, they will accept you before a white middle class male (even if the white person has better grades than you!)

I graduated from Qunnipiac University in 2006 and consider it to be my biggest regret. The pretty campus draws people in like it did me but there is a lot beneath the surface that is undesiriable for a school. The professors at this school are pretty good, what is really awful is the administration (the president, security, head of student programming, office of student affairs, residential life for example). I felt so BABIED at this school, there are a ridiculous amount of rules, and a very "us versus them" mentality. The school is very new, there are no fun traditions and everything is constantly changing, ususally for the worst. I did make great friends there, but its hard not too when your dorming. All of my friends who have since graduated regret going there. I was told as a senior in High School that this was an "up and coming school". I have come to hate this phrase. The "up and coming" part is at the expense of the students. The Qunnipiac Administrations' number one priority is public relations to improve their image, not the happiness and well-being of the students. My advice is not to go for an up and coming school but one that is aleady "here" or a school that is content with its so-so status but focuses on student needs instead, which is what the school I'm currently attending law school does, Western New England College. I live on campus here and I can't believe how much better the quality of life is for the undergrads when compared to Qunnipiac.
I saw one student point out that the campus is still dead at night, no frat houses, no sports houses, no on campus or walking distance bar. I feel like I didn't get a genuine college experiance,this again goes back to Qunnipiac being a relatively new school with a new campus. Quinnipiac comes off nice at the surface but once I went here I realized what a grave mistake I made, don't go here and if you do- Transfer as soon as you can.

Quinnipiac is an amazing school. I get frustrated when people say its 'snobby', there are snobby people at every school. The faculty is so helpful, and there are so many options for extraciricular activites. The school is very up and comming and I highly recommend it. I was comfortable from the second I got to campus, and didn't want to leave for the summer.

Quinnipiac has a growing reputation in the northeast and is rapidly expanding. If you notice, people with joke majors (communications, english)who are in no way competitive and will have no significance in their lifetime, do not think that their programs were/are effective. I feel that I received a great education here at Quinnipiac, since my major is challenging and worthwhile. Many business majors graduating this year have signed their employment contracts with numerous Fortune 500 companies. To be honest, there are many people here who just do not care about excelling in academics, and are content with simply passing their classes with a below average grades. This only helps those who put in the effort and receive above average grades. (class rank is a determining factor for both employment and especially graduate school admissions) The most actively recruited major out of the school of business is accounting, so if you are planning on a career in accounting, Quinnipiac is a great place to get your education.
