Student Review from Colleges.USnews.RankingsandReviews.com

"This school is the perfect size and the grounds are maintained beautifully. Every effort is made to assure that everything about this campus appears to be wonderful to visitors. Alot of the time I feel like the manicured trees, lawns, and high tech equipment are used to lure in perspective students, but do not necessarily benefit the students who go here. The addition of more students to the campus than the school can actually accommodate is a growing problem. While I admit that this school is growing in leaps and bounds (with the completion of new dorm buildings, expansion of the cafeteria, and the new York Hill campus), QU's eyes may have been bigger than its stomach so to speak. It is a nice place to live and the dorms are better than most I have ever seen on a college campus. There is a type of housing for every kind of student. One of my favorite things about Quinnipiac is when the weather gets nice at the end of the semester it is common to see students reading and hanging out of the quad and others playing wiffle ball and frisbee." - Jess, Sophomore.
