I graduated in 2011 and am now attendingQuite Bright
I graduated in 2011 and am now attending a top three program in my discipline. 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.

Question
It is not aBright
It is not a real college atmosphere and the tour they give totally misrepresents the school. At rose hill your in the bronx, so don't think your going to be living it up in new york city.

Question
There are a lot of positive things aboutBright
There are a lot of positive things about Fordham. There are only a few negative things I have to say about it. 1) The food and the cafeteria need a dramatic amount of work. 2) If you are apart of a sports program the weigh facility and the other sports facilities need a lot of work as well. There needs to be a better sports complex to this school.
