Academic buildings
The FEU Cavite campus is unique for its structure and location. Aside from being inside an exclusive subdivision, its academic buildings are built on two separate locations, approximately 900 meters apart. The Basic Education and Senior High School Building is located near the subdivision's center while the Higher Education Building is near the subdivision's secondary entrance.
Designed by Archion Architects, high ceilings and large windows were incorporated into the architecture, allowing as much air and light inside as possible and to minimize the use of air-conditioning.[8] Both buildings feature metal sunshades, design created by local artists, the couple Mona and Soler Santos.[4][9]
In 2018, the four-story Basic Education Building has been upgraded due to the lack of classrooms to accommodate the Senior High School students. A new floor with five classrooms, two laboratories, and an administrative office has been added.[1] In 2020, the building was honored at the National Commission for Culture and the Arts Haligi ng Dangal Awards as the People's Choice after garnering votes from the public through online Facebook voting.[10][11]
Dormitory
FEU Cavite has its own dormitory, known as TAM-Bahay. It broke ground in November 2014 and was opened in June 2015. It stands on a 1.29-hectare (3.2-acre) piece of land adjacent to the Higher Education building. It has three floors and can accommodate 120 people. It also has a room for two persons with disabilities.[12]
Community
Since the school is located inside a private village, free shuttle services have been introduced to ease the students' commute. There are shuttles serving the town proper of Silang and the main gate of the subdivision where the campus stands.
In 2015, the official student publication of the college, Simbuhan, was launched.
