Getting Involved


Red SeaMake the best of your Fairfield experience by participating in various activities available to international students. You can become involved in the International Students' Club, FUSA, and other campus student organizations. You can also attend the many events on campus such as lectures and athletic games.

International Students' Club
The international students' club is open to membership of international students and American students alike. The purpose of the club is to help international students make the best of their experience at Fairfield University. The goal of the club is to create a comfortable and open background where all are welcome. Through the club, students have been able to organize activities such as:

dance class

  • Halloween Parties
  • Trips to baseball games
  • Boston trip
  • St. Patrick's Day party

If you want to get involved, contact the Office of International Students or Dr. Danke Li, the club's advisor, at (203) 254-2353.

FUSA
The Fairfield University Student Association (FUSA) is Fairfield's own student government. Through FUSA, students get involved in several different ways. You could be a senator, and help voice the opinions of the student body. You could be a member of programming and organize concerts and events. Or you could hold one of the many positions open.

Other Student Organizations
Glee clubAt Fairfield, there are more than 80 student clubs and organizations. Some are ethnic in nature (Asian Student Association), some academic (Model United Nations), and some target specific interests on campus (Theatre Fairfield, Glee Club, and Men's Volleyball Club Team). No matter what your interest is there is a student organization to fulfill it. Even if there is no organization in existence to target your interests it is very easy to start-up your own club. If you are interested in starting a new club, contact Fred Kuo at (203) 254-3733.
