The Scoop
Fordham University is a private Jesuit research university with campuses in the Bronx and Manhattan, New York City. With approximately 16,000 students, Fordham offers a rigorous liberal arts education grounded in the Jesuit tradition of intellectual inquiry and service to others. Strong programs include business, law, communications, and the social sciences, and the university's Lincoln Center campus sits in the heart of Midtown Manhattan.
Campus life varies by location — the Rose Hill campus in the Bronx offers a traditional, tree-lined college campus feel, while Lincoln Center provides an urban, professional environment steps from Central Park and Broadway. Fordham's New York City location gives students extraordinary access to internships, cultural institutions, and career networks. Admissions are selective, and Fordham attracts students who want a values-driven education combined with the unmatched opportunities of New York City.
Fordham's graduates are well-represented in law, media, business, and public service, benefiting from the university's deep connections to New York City's professional landscape. The dual-campus experience offers students flexibility in choosing their ideal college setting. A tour with a current Ram is the best way to understand how Fordham's Jesuit mission and New York City location work together to create a distinctive and career-focused education.
