Dining Experience
Dining halls on each of our campuses offer tastes of both the global and the familiar, with ingredients that are fresh, sustainable and often sourced locally. You want options? We have several unique culinary stations offering traditional and eclectic dishes.
Campuses and Facilities
We challenge the traditional ideas of “campus life.” Wide-open spaces, meandering pathways, skylights, lofted ceilings and intimate courtyards enhance the sense of community.
From residence halls modeled after European ski villages to brownstone-style buildings with full kitchens and patios, we purposefully designed our living spaces with personal comfort, connecting with friends and student safety in mind.
Our outdoor spaces are more than just green grass. They are places where you'll gather with friends for cookouts, play a pick-up game of basketball or simply study with the beauty of New England as your backdrop.
Libraries
All of the knowledge you seek — from core class references to specialized periodicals — can be found within the walls of our three modern libraries. Contemporary design, digital collections and comfortable spots to sit and study make our libraries ideal places to catch up on course work or just read for relaxation.
Diversity and Inclusion
College is about more than your studies. It’s about meeting new people with diverse experiences and perspectives. You’ll be part of a community that celebrates unique backgrounds, beliefs and identities.
We’re Here for You
Your health and safety are our top priority. Our Student Health Services office is staffed by a team of doctors, nurses and counselors to provide health care and counseling support on both the Mount Carmel and York Hill campuses. The Department of Public Safety includes 74 trained law enforcement professionals, who provide 24-hour campus safety, while responding to emergencies and requests for assistance.
Spiritual and Religious Life
At Quinnipiac, people of all religions are welcomed, accepted and encouraged to fully observe their faiths. We have several organizations that offer worship services, counseling and celebratory activities that enable members to live spiritually fulfilling lives.
