I love Fordham University!BrightCommunications
I love Fordham University! However, I did not always love it, actually I really didn't even want to apply or go here. I thought that the campus would be dangerous or sketchy or something, being that it is in the bronx, but I feel so safe no matter what time of day or night it is. Don't let the location confuse you of its amazing possibilities!!!!

Question
Fordham is a place for students who wantQuite BrightOther
Fordham is a place for students who want a campus community in the biggest city in the world. With that said, it takes a person who is independent and city-minded on some levels and community-oriented with school spirit on other levels to succeed and be happy at Fordham. A beautiful campus, solid facilities, great location, caring professors, and interesting and diverse students are all there. But it is only worth spending over $30,000 if you will actually take advantage of what the school offers. If you do, as I have, you will love Fordham and never want to leave NYC.

Question
Lots of great people, but you have toQuite BrightPsychology
Lots of great people, but you have to find them. You can have a lot of fun with the city and there's plenty of opportunities for everything -- if you go to it. Nothing will really be thrown at you or even come to you, you have to work for it.

Find good teachers, get involved, know the professors, go to class (easier said than done), but remember to do stuff you want to do. You're in NYC.. limitless possibilities.Have fun
