Major: (This Major's Salary over time)
Overall, I had a great experience at Fordham. While no school is perfect, I couldn't imagine having a better undergraduate experience anywhere else. Pros: -I met great friends who I expect to have for life. -My dorms were all wonderful. -Small classes. - Accessible professors who for the most part (I had three duds)ranged from good to truly outstanding. Every one of my profs. knew me by name. -I got into an amazing grad program after doing well at Fordham. -Campus is beautiful. -Access to Arthur Avenue and Manhattan is great. But as I said, no place is perfect -ResLife rules are ridiculously strict in terms of visiting friend's dorms and lead many to move off campus. You learn how to get around the rules a bit, but it does get annoying. -While I was always busy on weekends, the school should have more on-campus weekend activities-- it depends too much on people going off campus and to Manhattan for fun. -Food quality isn't as good as it should be. I've been to other schools where Sodexo does the food and it was much better. Not sure if Fordham doesn't pay as much or doesn't demand as much for food services as other schools. But I had a kitchen the last two years so it becomes less important as time goes on. -The core could be a little more flexible. But overall, a great place. I wouldn't trade my years here for anything.
