Both schools have the preferred regional accreditation. Therefore, the coursework and degree you complete through either institution will be recognized by all other colleges and universities as well as employers. Quinnipiac is slightly more competitive but not by much. The applicants accepted is at 69%, where Ithaca is at 79% of the applicant pool. Thus, it is a tossup. However, you should visit each campus and inquire about the following issues.

  • accreditation ( the college or university should have a regional accreditation. Accept nothing less).
  • location
  • campus environment( should be well maintained, safe, easy access to all buildings and offices)
  • programs of study (majors)
  • entrance requirements
  • cost (tuition and fees, books, housing if need, estimated personal expense)
  • financial aid availability
  • student services (to include counseling, career advisement, placement, etc)
  • academic learning center (tutoring should be free)
  • library
  • computer labs and access
  • classroom size
  • student to professor ratio
  • student activities
  • retention (out of the students who are admitted, what percentage actually graduate)
