Quinnipiac University Early Decision Acceptance Rate 2023-2024

CT

What is Quinnipiac University's early decision acceptance rate?

Quinnipiac University admitted 81 of its 91 Early Decision applicants, 89.0%, according to its 2023-2024 Common Data Set. That pool is under the 400 applications this site requires before comparing it with everyone else, so no rest-of-pool rate or multiple is given: on a pool this small, a ratio is noise, not leverage.

Early Decision · 81 admitted of 91 applied

89.0%

The Early Decision pool is not a random slice of the applicants — recruited athletes, legacy applicants and QuestBridge matches are counted inside it — so this rate describes that group, not an applicant like you.

Is early decision at Quinnipiac University binding?

Yes. Early Decision is binding wherever it is offered, Quinnipiac University included: you may apply Early Decision to only one school, and if admitted you commit to attend and withdraw your other applications. The usual exception is an aid offer your family cannot afford, so check the costs on this page before you apply.

Admitted SAT · middle 50% · College Scorecard 2024

Half of admitted students scored inside this range. It is the admitted band, not a minimum and not a cutoff, and it covers the whole entering class rather than the Early Decision round alone.

What families actually pay (AY 2023–24)

Early Decision is binding, so accepting one ends the option of comparing two aid offers. These are the published averages before that choice is made.

Family income under $30k$33,649
Family income $30k–$48k$35,827
Family income $48k–$75k$36,507
Family income $75k–$110k$39,096
Family income over $110k$42,891

Average paid by students receiving federal aid, by family income (College Scorecard).

International students are not eligible for U.S. federal aid, so they are not in this cohort and typically pay closer to the sticker price.

Across the 8 recorded cycles from 2017 to 2024, Quinnipiac University's overall acceptance rate fell from 73.9% to 72.2%. That is the whole entering class — Early Decision, Early Action and Regular Decision together — not the Early Decision round on its own.
