Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Communications  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Bright Fordham is a fairly good school. It is much too expensive for what you get, but it is still superior to most public colleges. Prospective students should be aware that Fordham's two main campuses, Lincoln Center and Rose Hill, differ substantially. They should be fully aware of which school they plan to attend BEFORE applying, as they will need to indicate which campus on the commonapp. Surrounding City: A+, Social Life: C+ Have a Question?

I think Fordham is a great school. The faculty is outstanding, class sizes are small, the students are generally bright (but not brilliant), and the core curriculum provides a fantastic grounding in the liberal arts. The Bronx campus is gorgeous (LC not so much but they're working on it), and although the surrounding neighborhood is a bit shady you have easy access to Manhattan and all it has to offer. The school genuinely cares about its students and really tries to provide a solid education rather than focusing on flashy bullshit. The alumni network is outstanding and Fordham has a strong reputation in the city - you're well positioned for getting a good job on graduation. Lots of internship opportunities as well. Amazing school all around. Faculty Accessibility: A+, Innovation: B Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.

While no school is perfect, I couldn't imagine having a better undergraduate experience anywhere else. Pros: -I met great friends who I expect to have for life. -My dorms were all wonderful. -Small classes. - Accessible professors who for the most part (I had three duds)ranged from good to truly outstanding. Every one of my profs. knew me by name. -I got into an amazing grad program after doing well at Fordham. -Campus is beautiful. -Access to Arthur Avenue and Manhattan is great. But as I said, no place is perfect -ResLife rules are ridiculously strict in terms of visiting friend's dorms and lead many to move off campus. You learn how to get around the rules a bit, but it does get annoying. -While I was always busy on weekends, the school should have more on-campus weekend activities-- it depends too much on people going off campus and to Manhattan for fun. -Food quality isn't as good as it should be. I've been to other schools where Sodexo does the food and it was much better. Not sure if Fordham doesn't pay as much or doesn't demand as much for food services as other schools. But I had a kitchen the last two years so it becomes less important as time goes on. -The core could be a little more flexible. But overall, a great place. I wouldn't trade my years here for anything. Campus Aesthetics: A+, Innovation: C Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.
