“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.

“Graduation rate during my four years was approximatelyAverage
Graduation rate during my four years was approximately 45%. Fordham was running a 1200 board score school with a 1050 board score student body. One-third of the students (academic scholarship/athletic scholarship and no schorlarship) were in the penalty box after their first semester. The dean of student services was the acting athletic director ...... and still is. When consturction starts for the new student center and athletic & recreation center it is my hope that a qualified AD will be brought into place and that AD will sit on board of trustee meetings. If this is accomplished and new science classroom building is completed, the school should be graduating above 90%. Present graduation rate is about 80%.
