Summer Scholars Program
Residence life experience
A college experience is not complete without a residential component. Throughout the program, students will live in double rooms, share a common bathroom, and have access to lounges on every floor. Resident Assistants will provide educational and social programming to enhance the students' experience outside of the classroom. There is 24-hour support provided by live-in staff, Resident Assistants and Public Safety.
Students can take advantage of the many amenities offered on Fairfield University's beautiful 200-acre campus, which includes the RecPlex (fitness center, indoor pool, saunas, racquetball, and basketball courts) as well as the state-of-the-art library, computer, and science labs. The Dining hall and The Stag Snack Bar in the Campus Center offer a wide variety of menus and offerings.
The Office of Residence Life will schedule a variety of entertaining and fun events for students to enjoy, including:
- Field trips off campus to local beaches and the city
- Karaoke socials
- Dodge ball tournaments
- Movie nights
- Video game contests
- Check out a slideshow of our beautiful campus
