How the class gets assembled.
No Early Decision reportedEarly Action offered

Each column is scaled within that stage. Labels show exact counts.

General Information
8 TABLESWe invite you to indicate if there are items on the CDS for which you cannot use the requested analytic convention, cannot provide data for the cohort requested, whose methodology is unclear, or about which you have questions or comments in general. This information will not be published but will help the publishers further refine CDS items.Quincy University has an enrollment fee, not an application fee. There does not seem to be an area to indicate an enrollment fee so we placed it in the housing deposit area in tab C. If an enrollment fee could be added for next year, it would be great!
