What are the popular events and traditions at Farmingdale State College?

Farmingdale's student-activities calendar has included RamChella, Fountain Fest, and a Welcome Back BBQ. These events offer scheduled opportunities for students - especially commuters - to gather outside class.

RamChella is a campus entertainment event, while Fountain Fest centers activities around a recognizable campus gathering place. A welcome-back event helps mark the start of a term and introduces students to campus programming. Dates, activities, and whether a particular event returns in a given year depend on the current student-activities calendar; their names alone should not be taken as evidence of a fixed annual schedule.

What are the student housing and dining options at Farmingdale State College?

Farmingdale State College offers college-operated, coeducational housing, but most students live off campus. Availability should not be confused with a guarantee of a room.

Prospective residents should review the current residence-hall options, housing application, eligibility rules, deadlines, and any required deposit before making plans. The college reports high-speed internet access in its housing. Meal-plan arrangements and campus dining locations should be checked together with housing terms, since a plan's requirements may depend on where a student lives. Commuters should compare dining hours and plan options with the times they expect to be on campus.
