Abstract: This study examines the relationship between student engagement and the availability and quality of campus facilities at a Malaysian university, particularly emphasizing the varying experiences of resident and non-resident students. The issue being addressed is the uneven degree of participation from students, especially those who do not live on campus, which could be impacted by their opinions and use of the facilities. The objective of this paper is to investigate the effects of facility availability and quality on student involvement and the effect of the involvement of non-resident students. A quantitative research design was used, and student survey data were analyzed using multiple regression and cross-tab analysis involving 271 respondents. The results show that while the quality of campus facilities positively and significantly impacts student engagement, there is a negative and significant relationship between facility availability and student engagement. Additionally, cross-tab results show that resident students are more engaged and satisfied than non-resident students. These findings imply that facilities' relevance, quality, and accessibility are more important than quantity. In order to create a more welcoming and balanced campus environment, the study suggests that university planners prioritize raising facility standards and creating inclusive strategies to involve all student groups, particularly non-residents.
