Welcome

First We Help With The Transition. Then, The Transformation.

You strive to provide a supportive environment for your child. So do we. At Fairfield University, we're committed to fostering a strong sense of community, where every single faculty and staff member has your child's back.

We know that where your child chooses to go to college is one of the most important decisions he or she will ever make. We realize that it's one of your biggest decisions, too, and it's important that you have as much information as possible before making that decision.

These pages will provide you with a wealth of knowledge about the admission process, financial aid, and most importantly, what your child can expect to find inside and outside of the classroom at Fairfield.

Events

Visiting Fairfield

With easy access to major cities (and major interstates, airports and train lines), Fairfield University is convenient to visit. We'd love to meet you, and visiting campus is the best way to get a sense for everything we have to offer. Schedule a 90-minute campus visit, led by our student tour ambassadors. Or, schedule an interview with an admissions representative. Interviews aren't required for admission, but they're a great way to learn everything you need to know about Fairfield.
