Endowments Make a Lasting Difference
Endowment is the lifeblood of any university, relieving the budget from tuition dependency and serving as an income stream and savings account at the same time. We are proud that Quinnipiac’s endowment has risen from $9.9 million in 1994 to $242 million in 2010.
