Housing and Residential Life Updates

The Office of Housing is excited to announce the Sophomore and Junior Housing Selection Processes for the 2024-2025 academic year. Your student can participate by logging in to MyHousing to sign the housing contract and pay the housing reservation fee.

As a reminder, undergraduate students are required to live in Quinnipiac housing for their first three years.

Housing contracts are due on March 22, and every student who completes a contract will receive a housing selection number and a date/time when they can select a space either individually or as a member of a roommate group. The Office of Housing is offering students the opportunity to form mixed-gender groups and participate in a Gender-Inclusive Housing Selection process that will take place on April 3 and April 8.

Junior Housing Selection: April 3-4

Junior housing options include Crescent, Westview, Townhouses and Whitney Village.

Sophomore Housing Selection: April 9-10

Sophomore housing options include The Hill, The Village, Sahlin, Bakke, Founders, Larson, Perlroth, and Crescent.

We are also offering three living-learning communities that are open to sophomore students: Live Well, Multicultural and Unity.

Students who may need to request medical accommodations for housing must do so by March 1 to be considered prior to the regular housing selection processes.

If you have any questions about the housing selection process, our staff are available in the Office of Housing in the Student Affairs Center behind the Bobcat Den. We are open weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. We are also available as follows:

Dining Updates

Dietary Accomodations

Meal Plans

As we are coming to the close of the academic year, students should be especially mindful of their meal points. All students are encouraged to check their meal points at least once a week by installing the Transact app on their mobile device or accessing the Transact website. Comparing the actual meal point balance to the week-by-week guidelines will help students to stay on track.

Too many points

• Any leftover meal points will roll over from the fall to the spring semester. However, spring semester points will expire if they are not used at the end of the term. The last day to use meal points is on May 11.

• Students with too many points have three options available to them:

  • Consider transferring points to another student

    • Learn more about the transfer process

    • Log into the meal points transfer system

  • Participate in the Tap Out Hunger program and donate meal points to charity. This program opens in April.

  • Purchase food or beverages in bulk quantities directly from the dining hall to bring home. Dining services offers limited items based on cost value at the end of each year.  There is a sign-up process announced in April and pick ups take place in the final weeks of the semester. Students will receive a notification when the bulk purchasing opportunity begins.

Too few points

• Students who have fewer points than the budget recommends can negotiate a transfer of points from another student.

  • Learn more about the transfer process

  • Log into the meal points transfer system

• If a student runs out of meal points, they can supplement with Q-Cash. The dining facilities accept Q-Cash and credit cards. Q-Cash acts as a debit account separate from the student's meal plan, and students may add Q-Cash to their account at any time by making a deposit on the Transact page. Parents and guardians can also make guest deposits. In addition to each dining location on our three campuses, Q-Cash is accepted at numerous establishments in the surrounding area

What’s new from Religious Life

The Hereld House community continues to gather together every Shabbat — to discuss the current situation and support one another.

Pessach this year falls on Monday, April 22. Like all years past, students who chose not to share Seder at home with their families, will be invited to share seder at my home. Please discuss this with your child and if you have any questions, reach out to me at reena.judd@qu.edu or 203-582-8206 and I will reach back.

I send you all Much Shalom, Rabbi Reena Judd

What’s New from Financial Aid

Explore Outside Scholarship Options

Now is an excellent time for your student to apply for outside scholarships for academic year 2024-25, to minimize the out-of-pocket college expenses.

Here are some important tips and links:

• To avoid your student’s email address from being overwhelmed, create a separate email address just for scholarship searches and check it regularly.

• Start locally by researching community resources. Information may be available at your library or city or town hall.

• Never provide a Social Security Number on a scholarship application.

• Watch those deadlines. April and May are common months for application submission deadlines.

Student Conduct

Spring is upon us. The Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards values the support of parents and families in keeping our community safe. Please take note of the following:

Unrecognized fraternities: Phi Gamma Delta (Fiji) and Delta Tau Delta (Delt) are not recognized by Quinnipiac. Both Phi Gamma Delta and Delta Tau Delta were suspended by Quinnipiac in spring of 2022 following a history of multiple violations of university policies. If your student has joined or discussed membership in either Phi Gamma Delta or Delta Tau Delta since fall 2022, please understand that they are not a member of a fraternity recognized by Quinnipiac.

They are also not recognized as members of these fraternities by either of the national headquarters of these organizations. Furthermore, membership in either one of these organizations may by itself represent a violation of university policy given that the university has ordered that these organizations disband. Please encourage your students to join a recognized organization so that they can receive the full benefits of fraternity membership. Please review this website to learn more about the fraternity and sorority community at Quinnipiac.

Off-campus gatherings: Spring is a time when students like to gather outside. It can be very tempting for students living in off-campus houses and apartments to host parties. In prior years, these parties have become dangerous and disruptive as word travels fast and crowds can quickly become overwhelming for the hosts.

Under our Good Neighbor Policy, students who host parties are responsible for the behavior of their guests as well as for all elements of a party regardless of their original intent. This includes the following important stipulation: “Connecticut state law and court decisions have held the social host liable for personal injury and property damage caused to a third party as a result of the irresponsible service of alcoholic beverages to guests, regardless of age. In addition, social hosts do not need to actually provide alcohol to their guests; they merely need to provide the venue for others to engage in irresponsible behavior.” Please discuss these expectations with your student as violations of the Good Neighbor Policy may result in separation from the university and for seniors it may result in losing the privilege to participate in our spring commencement ceremony. If your student lives off campus, it is very important that they are respectful of the surrounding community and are respectful of the laws and policies governing conduct off campus.

Community, Assessment, Response and Evaluation (CARE) Team

The Quinnipiac CARE Team is here to support students navigating health and wellness, behavioral or situational concerns. One in three first year students received support from this team last academic year and there are staff all across the university community that are prepared to help students! If you are concerned about a Quinnipiac student, more information about how to submit a CARE referral can be found on the CARE webpage
