Lively campus environment
From cultural festivals to camping trips to EcoFairs, the spectrum of campus events is wide-ranging. Every activity is fueled by the vibrant energy and happiness that permeate our university.
The town of Fairfield
Our campus is located in Fairfield, Iowa, a small cosmopolitan town known as “the entrepreneurial capital of Iowa.” You’ll discover 25 art galleries around the town square, a lively theater and music scene, and more restaurants per capita than San Francisco.
Even though it has many big-city features, Fairfield keeps the advantages of its small size. Incoming students from around the world remark about how friendly and relaxed the community is.
“Everyone here is really friendly. I feel very comfortable on campus. Living here is like taking a tour around the world. I have become friends with people from several continents and I am fascinated to learn about their cultures. I am gaining a global perspective that will help me be a better citizen of the world.”
