Four 8:30am classes as a commuter
Is it really bad? I fear that may just be how my schedule will work out best. But idk can anyone give me advice from experience. I’d take the 7:30 train to get there at 8.

I am going to be a freshman in the fall 2026 class but rn I am so nervous, can any seniors help me create a checklist to not missing out/ not screwing my GPA scores? Any advices would be awesome.
Hi so registration for me is on wednesday and I’m looking for advice 😭
is the plan ahead feature useful for registration or should I just enter CRNs manually?
I technically have a full ride scholarship but if it wasn’t for room and meal plans - which bumped up my yearly tuition to 90k, I would’ve been good. Now im applying to a lot of scholarships and being rejected by them. It’s like 17k a semester for me (low income first gen)
I just hope I can make this money back since im interested in investment banking and hope to make a career out of it.

I’m thinking about adding on comp bc I’ve heard it’s easy and science has always been easy for me and I did my own research in HS
Is adding Comp 2 as a 5th class unreasonable ( I want to still have time for going out)

Anyone from long island commuting to lincoln center? I wanna make friends also anyone going to commuter orientation?🥹
Is any freshman able to see the scores early, and if so, where do you go to view them?
I really did want to dorm but it’s more money than actual tuition, I even found a really nice roommate and had to unfortunatly tell her I can’t , we still talk here and there. I only live 30 mins away too, how bad is it to make friends as a commuter??
Hiii I’m class of 2030 and I know absolutely no one going to/at Fordham 😫 I did the Fordham 2030 thing on Instagram and added a lot of people on insta but have only had small talk with a few people. Honestly I’m not a huge texter, I only text my very close friends and family on my phone. Also for context I am an out of state student and can’t attend an in person orientations. I am very talkative and love to meet new people so at first I wasn’t really nervous but now that school is slowly approaching I’m realizing that I will be moving somewhere where I know literally no one all on my own…. I was wonder what advice anyone has!!! I’m excited for my roommate assignment and I hopefully will become friends with them before moving and I know that once I get to Fordham I won’t really have an issue talking to people. I was wondering if people in/were in my situation recommend just waiting to meet people there or to try and make friends now online?? Thanks!!
i'm a rising junior and in the comp sci program at rose hill and it's been pretty terrible so far, the professors haven't been great (aside from kounavelis) and the syllabi haven't been effective in teaching me much. i'm transferring to LC for my junior year, but i also got accepted into RIT all the way upstate which has an excellent comp sci program. is the comp sci program at LC any better than it is at RH i'm really trying to pull any excuse to stay in the city, but if it is also poor i'm of course willing to make the move
is any other incoming freshman having issues with fordham receiving the ap scores from past years even though they have been sent? i know of people who have checked off degreeworks requirements due to past ap exams, but even though i qualify for those credits too, it's not checked off. collegeboard says the scores were sent, but my advisor told me they're not showing up on slate.
Hi, I’m gonna be a freshman in the fall and I’m not sure what meal plan to choose. I’d like to spent as little money as possible but obviously don’t want to starve. I always hear people say in general for college that the minimum meal plan is always more than enough but 2 meals a day doesn’t sound that generous. I wouldn’t say I have a ferocious appetite, a lot of the time I skip breakfast then have normal lunch + dinner but what if I do want breakfast or a snack? Which one should I get??
Also like what psycho looks at 14 meal a week and is like yeah that’s how much I eat but is it enough I can’t tell what’s a money grab???
I’m making my schedule and i am between Emilio Zappa and Nghia Vuong. Pls let me know which one would be better, or if u have other recommendations. I’m horrible at math. Like utterly useless
Hey guys! I will be one of the incoming freshmen this fall and I really want to play pickleball/ tennis in uni.
Does anyone know if Fordham has any pickleball/ tennis social club I can find? If there's not and you're interested, feel free to leave me a message:D
Are there any incoming transfer students who will be attending Fordham's Lincoln Center campus this upcoming semester? I'd love to get to know some people before classes start
Lowkey it’s kinda crazy that with the insane cost we’re paying for living, we still have to provide all our own toilet paper and paper towels.
Hey everyone,
I’m putting together a casual soccer social club for students in the city and wanted to see who might want to join. It’s strictly 18+ and open to all skill levels—whether you’re looking to play some regular pickup games or just meet new people outside of classes.
The vibe is completely casual and social. If you’re interested, drop a comment below or shoot me a DM so I can add you to a group chat and we can coordinate the best fields, parks, and times to meet up!
I’m hoping to apply EA in the fall. I haven’t visited Fordham yet as I am out of state, but I am planning a visit this summer and it is one of my top choices. I would be majoring in either music or communications and media management. I know it’s pretty difficult to double major with a business major, but I know it can be done and if possible I would love to do both of those as a double major. Anyway, my stats are I have a 4.1 w gpa, 3.8 uw, 3 IBs, 2 or 3 APs depending on how man I take next year, almost all honors besides my ib and AP classes, since my freshman year I have taken less standard classes each year, 5+ years of horseback riding twice a week, 50+ community service hours, music lessons for 4 years, band for 2 years, yoga twice a week after school, vice president of yoga club at my school, 2 internships at recording studios, and I will hopefully be getting a part time job in the fall. This year at school I will also be joining our vocal ensemble with my friends, joining our forum events, and joining MGA. Just mentioning it again, but I am out of state. What are my chances of getting in if I apply EA?
