Fairfield University, including its undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) programs offered through Shorelight, is a private institution. Located in Connecticut, USA, it is a Jesuit-affiliated university known for its liberal arts and professional education programs.
As a private university, Fairfield relies on tuition, donations, and endowments rather than state funding. Shorelight collaborates with Fairfield to support international students, but this does not alter the university’s private status. The partnership focuses on enhancing academic and cultural experiences while maintaining Fairfield’s private, nonprofit educational model.
