There's more to life at Quinnipiac than academics. Our students, faculty, staff and greater-community members learn and grow together across our three campuses and in the surrounding community. We are focused on making sure those experiences are safe and healthy for everyone.

Quinnipiac is home to one of the safest campus communities in the country. Our Department of Public Safety provides 24/7 coverage while EMTs in our emergency medical services program are ready to respond to any health emergency. Walking escort services are available on campus 24/7 and Blue Light emergency phones are accessible throughout our campuses.
Hartford HealthCare is Quinnipiac's partner to operate our on-campus Student Health Services. With successful experience serving student populations at other institutions, HHC offers a collaborative and coordinated healthcare model and the ability to provide expert consultation to the university on a wide range of campus health issues including student wellness, mental health, athletic training and infection prevention strategies.
The Office of Counseling Services provides a range of clinical services and mental health support at no cost to undergraduate and graduate students — including evaluations, individual counseling and group therapy. Our counselors are licensed to diagnose and treat a variety of mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, sexual violence, eating disorders, grief and substance abuse. Services are offered through Hartford HealthCare on the Mount Carmel and York Hill campuses.
The Learning Commons provides a wide range of academic support services geared toward individual strengths, learning styles and goals. Our approach does more than raise test scores. Peer educators and support staff members teach students to think and learn with intention and to make connections between many academic disciplines.
Quinnipiac puts an emphasis on offering amazing opportunities for being active, having fun and living a healthy lifestyle. Our fitness centers offer the right equipment and classes to keep your body and mind operating at peak performance throughout the school year.
