2014-2015 Quinnipiac University Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
added primary today (had to wait for pay day 🙁 ), received secondary within an hour, submitted within 2 hrs

Hoping they like the quick turnaround...
 
How do you pronounce Quinnipiac? Is it "queen - ni - peck"?
 
I don't know when I was complete (long story/glitch), but I'd guess somewhere between 7/15 and 7/23.
 
Sorry if someone's already asked this, but for the course requirement section is the lab checkbox for if lab was included in the course or if the course itself was solely a lab? I know they require labs but I'm not sure how to input this where it makes sense (since some of my lab classes are included with lecture and some are separate).
 
You mean classes of 2018 and 2019, right? Sorry, just want to make sure I got it right. lol

Nope, I mean 2017 and 2018.
They haven't announced whether the class of 2019 will increase or not, as far as I know.

Oh OK, I was confused because I know it increased mid-application cycle last cycle, so I didn't know if there were 60 students starting right now or 90...
 
What do you guys think they're looking for when they ask which profession you would do if you weren't doing medicine?

Do they want to see you envisioning yourself working in something health care related or something that serves people (something like that?)

I assumed its to get more insight on who you are. I say be honest. Unless, of course, that answer is "If I weren't doing medicine, I would like to be a Tyrannosaurus Rex"

Pretty sure they're looking for an honest answer. In the event that you get an interview and they ask you about it, it's easier to show confidence in your answer if it's something real rather than something fabricated.

I had no trouble. It's the middle of the night, so they might have server maintenance going on. If you are using a mac you may need to append the correct file name (.jpg). There may be a size limit for the photo as well, so try to compress below 1 mb.

*UPDATE: To clarify submitted a couple weeks ago though.

I did it with both cropped and original. I even used different browsers. Same thing
 
Uh, just got their secondary... but my primary isn't verified yet... what? Is this an error?
Also my MCAT score isn't out yet either... (coming today/tomorrow). Do they screen applicants or do they send secondaries to everyone?
 
Uh, just got the II... but my app isn't verified yet... what? Is this an error?

II = Interview Invite.
 
under the demographics section, for family info, what is the difference between occupation and job title? I feel like they're the same...?
 
I mean idk how to distinguish it either haha, I turned it in already and I'm sure we aren't the only two people who did

I think so too lol. I do have another question tho..for coursework, there is the check box next to lab, so if a course is lecture + lab, do i check the box or no? - I was not sure if the check box means "This course comes with a lab" or "this course is purely lab"

My classes and labs were separate. I don't think I checked the box. Remember they have your transcripts they just want to have a sense of the fact that you have the pre-reqs.
 
Do any of you know if Quinnipiac requires two semesters of Math? MSAR says only college math, and i only have one math semester, but the secondary asks for two. I'll call them tomorrow if no one knows, but their office is now closed and I wanna finish tonight.

Yes their website says two semesters of math or stats
 
Sooooooo... If I was complete on 07/07 and still havn't heard a word, what do you think this means?

I'm kind of assuming I've been placed on hold or something, still a bit frustrating to say the least.
 
Can you tell me how I can indicate that I'll take it in spring 2015

I believe there is a way on the course list where you can indicate that the class is a future class. Also, there's a section where you can include additional information in the form of a pdf. I had to do this due to issues with one of my classes.

Good luck
