Fairfield University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Ashley

I wish I had known how important it was to commit to a small amount of clubs, but become very involved with them, rather than commit to a variety of clubs, but not be able to give my all to each one. Fairfield University offers such a wide variety of clubs, but I would have liked to been able find ones that I really connect with and move up through the ranks of officers, rather than just be a participant in several of these extra curricular activties.

I wish i had known that living on campus was not as easy as everyone makes it out to be. Living on campus is not bad but sometimes my floor mates make it bad. The loud music during "quiet" hours, the drunk girls in the halls and also the vandalism that happen in the bathrooms. I am very happy that I have a very good roommate because I have seen some bad roommate relationships.

Sandanie

They do not offer certain courses for certain majors. Need to have better cordination when the students get sick and needs medical attention. Lack diversity.

Before coming to Fairfield University, I wish I had known that the dorm buildings are extremely hot in the beginning of the year. I wish I had known that the food at Barone (Fairfield's cafeteria) is really not good and there is not much of a nutritious selection. I wish I had known that the class registration process is tricky and annoying. I wish I had known that AP classes really do help with your course load.
