Klevisa

I am very proud of the liberal arts education that I received at Fairfield University. I appreciate the holistic approach taken to education at Fairfield University, which includes a rigorous core curriculum that epmahsizes critical thinking. Addionally, Fairfield's emphasis on public service and the Jesuit values of social justice. The emphasis on values and service set this university apart from other schools. The pofessors are experts and truly care about their students - more so than in larger, research based universities. Lastly, the campus and location is absolutely beautiful.

The campus is absolutely beautiful and well-maintained. The town of Fairfield offers wonderful things to do and it is also beautiful. It is on the Long Island Sound and it is a great area. Fairfield's students also form a great community. They emphasize community service and positive values.

seniors live at the beach

George

I would say the thing I mention most about Fairfield University would be that seniors have the opportunity (and the majority of seniors take advantage of) to live off campus on the beach. It is the Long Island Sound but it is a beach nonetheless, and everyone hears stories of Clam Jam and beach parties in the 70's (apparently the good ole days). Living off campus is one thing but to live a beachfront lifestyle is amazing, including gated communities for just seniors (The Point) and most beach houses that Fairfield students take are close to each other (campus).

I like the small class sizes and the ideal location, just five minutes away from fairfield beach and only 70 minutes away from NYC which is great if you are looking for an internship!

Albert

Great social life, great parties,

Robert

The social life at Fairfield is very strong. Every weekend everyone seems to be drinking and having a good time, and for me thats very enjoyable. Plain and simple, there are many great looking girls that attend this school, and many people are attracted to that. I also like to tell them that the setting of the school is absolutely beautiful.

Daniel

Fairfield's location on the long island sound makes the school unique in the sense that it is a beach town, and at the same time is ranked as having one of the best business schools by Princeton Review.
