Fordham offers discussion-oriented learning and a strong community in vibrant and diverse New York City.
About the institution
Fordham University, founded in 1841, offers a distinctive educational experience rooted in the Jesuit tradition of intellectual rigor and personal attention. The university enrolls a diverse student body of more than 15,000 students from across the USA and the world in 10 undergraduate, graduate, and professional schools.
Fordham has two undergraduate residential campuses: the Rose Hill campus in the Bronx and the Lincoln Center campus in the heart of Manhattan. Each campus is home to a liberal arts college—Fordham College at Rose Hill or Fordham College at Lincoln Center—and our Gabelli School of Business offers undergraduate programs on both.
