The questions international applicants ask

What are Quincy University's application deadlines for 2026–27?

Quincy University admits on a rolling basis for 2026–27: there's no single deadline, and it answers applications as they come in, so applying early is safer.

What is Quincy University's acceptance rate?

50.9% for students who started in fall 2024: Quincy University admitted 902 of its 1,771 first-year applicants.

  • The rate covers all first-year applicants, US and international: the federal data doesn't give a separate rate for international applicants.
  • US Department of Education (IPEDS). Fall 2024 admissions (provisional release). Source

Does Quincy University require the SAT or ACT for international applicants?

No. Quincy University is test-optional for 2026–27: you decide whether to send SAT or ACT scores.

  • This is the policy listed for all first-year applicants. Some universities treat international students differently, so confirm it on the testing page.

What SAT score do you need for Quincy University?

The middle half of first-year students who enrolled in fall 2024 and sent SAT scores had 510–600 in Math and 490–600 in Reading and Writing (41% of them sent SAT scores).

  • On the ACT, the middle half had a composite of 20–25.
  • If your score is above the middle of these ranges, it helps your application. At a test-optional university, a score below the lower number usually isn't worth sending.
  • US Department of Education (IPEDS). Fall 2024 admissions (provisional release): 25th to 75th percentile of enrolled first-year students who submitted scores. Source

How much is Quincy University's application fee for international students?

How many recommendation letters does Quincy University require?

Does Quincy University require the Common App personal essay?

No. Quincy University doesn't require the Common App personal essay for 2026–27, though you can still send it: the Common App lets you submit it to any university.
