- Guests may park in any available lot as well as the parking garage on campus throughout the weekend, with the exception of the Rafferty Stadium lot and the Bellarmine Hall lots on Saturday evening. Please take care to park in valid parking spots.
- Please note that drink ticket sales at the Friday night Kick-Off Reception in the DSB and the Bellarmine Dinner Dance are CASH ONLY.

Please note that due to deadlines for ordering linens and supplies, housing reservations will not be accepted after Thursday, June 2 at 5 p.m. EDT, or whenever we reach capacity, whichever comes first. In the event we are able to open up a limited number of rooms after this date, rush charges will be incurred.
Please note, for those staying Friday night only, you must check out of your room/return your key to the Housing Desk in the Kelley Center by 3:30 p.m. on Saturday afternoon.

Housing is extremely limited and is only available for alumni and guests registered for official Reunion Weekend events. In order to stay in campus housing on Friday night, tickets for either a Friday night reception or the Taste of Fairfield on Saturday must be purchased, and to stay on Saturday night, a ticket to the Dinner Dance must be purchased. Room-only reservations, without the corresponding event tickets, will be cancelled.
Friday housing key pick-up will be in the Aloysius P. Kelley Center from 4 - 10 p.m. Saturday housing key pick-up will be in the Kelley Center from 9 a.m. - 6 p.m. and in Bellarmine Hall from 6:30 - 9 p.m.
Yes. You may indicate your roommate request(s) on your registration form. Each roommate must request the other to be placed together. For parties whose roommate requests exceed the accommodations of their rooms (i.e., 3 requests for 2-bed room), we will do our best to house you near each other but this is not a guarantee. Many alumni attend Reunion without a spouse or a guest. Please plan ahead to find a roommate or if necessary, one will be assigned to you. Spots in rooms cannot be held for roommates who have not yet registered. Please note that this also applies to those staying in suite-style rooms (two rooms with a shared bathroom); we cannot hold a side of a suite or guarantee that your requested suitemates will be placed on the other side of your suite if they register at a much later date.
When packing to stay on campus, please remember that campus housing contains only the basics. Lightweight linens, towels, blankets, and pillows will be provided. You may want to bring along hangers, extra pillows and blankets, and extra towels. Fans are also recommended, particularly for those staying in a residence hall that is not air conditioned.
