Quinnipiac University Top Questions

no

mostly, besides the money, alot of stundents bust thier butt trying to pay themselves thru here

They apply to some, but not all of the Quinnipiac community...

For some people they are, but not for everyone

Not in a lot of cases...But there are many people whose personalities come off this way

Absolutely not

Some of them.

some stereotypes will always be accurate depending on the people you are talking about. there will always be the preps, the sluts, and the prudes but that is the same everywhere you go

Extremely

I wouldn't say they are entirely accurate yet the majority of the people on campus do own North Faces and Uggs. Not all of the girls are stuck up rich bitches, yet you will find a good amount of them. There are a lot of girls, but I think there is a good amount of boys too.

No

To some extent...students at Quinnipiac generally seem to have money, but they're not all like that. Just as at any other school, some families are very well off, and some not so much.

Sometimes

Most of them are partially accurate

Most of the time.

yes

No

In some aspects yes. But in not all cases.

To an extent

to an extent. many students come from weathy backgrounds, but that does not mean that they are snobs or that all students here have money because most of us have loans and financial aid.

Because the school is expensive the demographic is more affluent, but not every person is the exact same and definatly not snobby.

I think that these stereotypes are acurate for some people but definatly not for all.

no

Not completely, there are a lot of really great and genuine people at Quinnipiac, you just have to find your niche.

In some ways yes, but in other ways no. Yes there are a majority of rich white students but there are groups of students that do not fit these chracteristics

yes, with a few exceptions

Some of them are about small amounts of people. There are a lot of students that attend the university that have a lot of money. They drive luxury cars and dress in the newest fashions. However there are a lot of students of the "blue collar" community that attend the university. The girls are very good looking but as far as them being "easy", I would have no clue on that accuracy. And yes, our polling institute is one of the most famous things we have.

Not at all, pleanty of students are here on scholarships and student loans, most of the students I know are very actively envolved in the community and are aware about current issues.

For many of the students, yes, but I am not one of those people.

some but not all .

Some of them.

yes and no

Semi-accurate. There are a large majority fitting under each.

Not entirely.

No they are not. I go to quinnipiac university and I am from a middle class family. My parents are only able to ford a small amount of my college education and I will be leaving college with thousands of dollars in loans.

To an extent

YEs

Somewhat. Many of the girls are clones. But there are a lot of normal people too, and not everyone is rich.

They can be accurate but not everyone at Quinnipiac fits these stereotypes.

YES

Sometimes, yes. There are exceptions but most of the girls dress the same, for example. A lot of them wear Uggs. I also work with some that are spoiled. They make sure to find out how much money I make and then tell me that they could never live on what I make.

yes

It is true that their is little diversity on campus, something the University is looking to change, and it is true that a ton of the students here are from LI and the tri state area. What isn't true is that everyone is "rich, snobby, and perfect" for the most part everyone is pretty laid back and fun. The people who are here, want to be here.

For most of the population it is true. But one must realize that while that is the school's appearance, most students I know are serious students who do well in classes and care about school work.

No. Only 1 of my 8 roommates was wealthy. There are many pretty girls, not all fake. Many guido boys, but def not all of them are that way (only a select group).

There is truth to almost all of these stereotypes. When compared to Fairfield, Yale, UCONN, etc - Quinnipiac students do not seem as "academic." It does seem like everyone cares more about their weekend than their grades. And, Quinnipiac students do tend to wear all the same clothes and look the same. It is almost like an extension of high school here.

no, i for one am not blonde, rich, preppy, or stupid. there are some people at the school that can be categorized like this, but if you find the right crowd of friends, you can be happy with a genuinely nice group of people.

For the most part, yes. But this is true of so many private colleges and universities, especially in the Northeast. Quinnipiac is no different.

Many of the kids here are rich and of course there are some stuck up ones. And people here are apathetic

Yes, very accurate
