Residence Life

On This Page

A Place To Call Home

Fairfield University is a residential campus with approximately 5,000 full-time undergraduate students, living on campus in residence halls, townhouses, and apartment complexes.

As a residential campus, life in the halls, townhouses, and apartments is an integral part of a Fairfield undergraduates four-year experience. Programs and activities specific to an on-campus hall or residential area are sponsored by resident assistants and area coordinators, or in partnership with other offices and departments to provide students with numerous educational, social, cultural, service, and spiritual programs and activities which provide opportunities for personal growth, development, and fun. Programs range from game nights and movie screenings, mentoring sessions and retreats, career development workshops and guest speakers, to fundraiser and community service projects, and much more. These diversely designed programs enrich our students’ lives and help them engage in life on campus. 

Living in residence teaches and fosters a sense of shared and collective responsibility – to oneself, roommate(s), floor mates, and the campus community. Residential living at Fairfield University is an experience, where learning is continuous. 

Housing

We are dedicated to fostering a sense of community, and this begins with where you live. The deepest learning and strongest bonds form when you're in an environment that's not just comfortable, but intellectually and creatively stimulating.

Commuter Students

Students who commute to Fairfield are just as big a part of our community as on-campus residents. If you commute to campus, we'll strive to make you feel at home - even when your home is elsewhere.

Off-Campus Housing

There’s a lot to be excited about in college, but at Fairfield we give you a whole new reason: proximity to the beach. Every year, around 400 seniors move into homes on the beach, close to campus. It’s just one of many unforgettable ways Fairfield turns an education into an experience, and an experience into an education.

Housing Options

Residential life at Fairfield University consists of a variety of housing options on campus, and housing is guaranteed for four years to all full-time, matriculated undergraduate students. In addition, students are required to remain resident students for four years unless they are able to commute from home or are otherwise released from this obligation by the Office of Residence Life.

All first-year students live together in traditional-style halls, and sophomores live mostly in traditional-style halls with some living in suite-style halls depending upon availability. Juniors and seniors live in townhouses, apartments, or off campus (on a limited basis).
