Campus Life
Fairhaven students are well-known for their involvement in campus and community activities. Fairhaven students can be found writing for the Western Front, deejaying on KUGS-FM, competing in intercollegiate athletics, writing and editing literary publications, serving as Resident Advisors, and acting, singing and dancing in musical and dramatic productions. Every year any number of Fairhaven students coordinate, work for and hold leadership positions in many Associated Students organizations.
Making a Difference
Students contribute to the vitality, vision and operation of Fairhaven College in many key ways outside of structured classes. The college hires many students in Work-study positions every year and students serve as Peer Mentors for the college. Students are invited and encouraged to participate in the governance of the college through serving as active members of all college standing committees, including The Curriculum Committee, Personnel Committee, Scholarship Committee, Student Technology Committee, the Communications Committee, and the Admissions Committee.
Housing
Fairhaven students live wherever they choose. The majority of Fairhaven College students live off-campus in the Bellingham community. Typically, most first-year students choose to live on campus during their first year of college. Any student may apply for campus housing through University Residences.
We've recently established a Fairhaven College student cluster within the Fairhaven Residence Halls. Fairhaven College students may request housing within this cluster when they make application for University Residence housing.
