Fordham is expensive and you should be aware of that before coming, while they do give a fair amount of financial aid, do not expect to recieve a full ride just because you are not rich. Unless you live in poverty, you will pay something. I know I personally recieved about 24,000 each year in financial aid, completely need based. But you should still know be prepared and have back up plans on how to pay if you do not get that much aid.

I love Fordham, and the faculty is incredible helpful and accessable. The classes are challenging and you really learn things that are considered valuable as oppose to doing busy work and learning a bunch of useless crap.

However, dealing with just about any of the offices (ie res life or financial aid) can be a major ordeal, if at all possible… avoid them…as i explained, i really do love fordham, however these two offices almost drove me to transfer because they are so horrible. Nonetheless, i believe there is no better school, the education i recieved, the people i met and the experiences i had far outweigh the bad.
