Pool

The pool at LightHouse Commons is our newest on campus amenity on the Thomas Edison Campus and is open to all students! Our resort style pool is almost like three pools in one with a zero-depth entry, swim lanes, and areas designed for fun and relaxation. There is also a large deck area for sun bathing (and studying), a water volleyball court, as well as future space for grilling.

LightHouse Commons Pool Location

The LightHouse Commons pool is located right next to the on-campus residence hall.

Who can use the LightHouse Commons Pool?

While LightHouse Commons is only open to residents of the residence hall, all FSW students are welcome to use the LightHouse Commons pool! Please make sure that when coming to use the pool that you have your FSW BUC Card with you at all times.

If I do not live at LightHouse Commons where can I park to use the pool?
