Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

Fordham is nothing like what most students envision when they think of the typical college experience. You won't find any huge lecture halls, fraternities, or sororities, and you won't get lost trying to navigate a massive campus. Fordham prides itself in being a small, intimate setting, where professors value students as individuals and not one of hundreds in their class who get lost in the mix of things. With its prime locations, Fordham doesn't need to be a big school in order to offer the world to students because the heart of New York City and all of its opportunities are so accessible. Both campuses are beautiful, especially Rose Hill, with its old buildings and abundance of plant life in the midst of an urban setting, and even if it's not the athletics, something about the school will definitely make you proud to say you're a ram. 

No one would ever deny that Fordham has its flaws, like high prices and terrible food, but putting all of that aside, the experience that students have is a great one. The majority of students would still choose Fordham if they had a chance to start the college process all over again, and that right there says a lot. The education you receive and the fun you have, both on and off campus, make the downsides seem trivial in the long run, but only as long as you take full advantage of everything that Fordham and the city have to offer. Fordham is a great place to be, but it has to be the right fit for you, so before you make any decisions, visit the campus you plan on applying to and make sure it feels like home.

Caddy Girls, No Boys

Not much of a variety. Mostly either hot party girls or plain janes. For boys, they are either gay or pot head douche bags. Also, the ratio of boys to girls is 25:75. Girls can be extremely catty with each other, which gets disgustingly annoying.

If You're at LC, You're Set

I ate off-campus about 5 days a week. Most places deliver until the early hours in the morning, if not 24 hours. Furthermore, there are dozens of great restaurants in Hells kitchen, which is only a couple blocks south of McMahon Hall.
