Hey there! I think you're on the right track checking out places similar to Fairfield. Based on what you love about Fairfield's community-driven atmosphere, consider looking into Providence College in Rhode Island. It has a strong sense of community and offers a liberal arts education with a wide array of majors. Plus, their campus culture is similar to Fairfield with a big focus on student involvement. Another option closer to Fairfield would be Quinnipiac University in Connecticut. They’re known for their media and health sciences programs, and students often speak highly of the community feeling there. Lastly, you might want to check out Loyola University Maryland. It's a bit further away, but it offers that tight-knit, supportive atmosphere you’re looking for along with great academic programs. Each university has its own unique qualities, but all prioritize a well-rounded education and community engagement, much like Fairfield. Hope this helps and best of luck with your college search!
