[turbid hazel]

Hi Chloe

[red radish]

Hi

[onyx wedge]

idk if i should classify fordham as a match school

[turbid hazel]

it has like a 50 something percent acceptance rate

[fierce nova]

I can’t tell if they still have this policy but does Fordham still give out their free tuition scholarship to NMSFs

[onyx wedge]

yeah but i’m like a average applicant so idk if it’s a reach, i feel like everything i see online is like

oh if u didn’t start a nonprofit u aren’t getting in

[fierce nova]

Because I’ve been hunting their financial aid page and they don’t mention national merit once

And it’s like Ok.

[onyx wedge]

uhh i’m not sure but ik they claim to be very accommodating

[turbid hazel]

Definitely not

[onyx wedge]

do yk when the decisions r coming out?

[iron spire]

How come fordham is ranked so much higher on usnews (97) compared to niche (581)

[onyx wedge]

rankings aren’t always accurate

[turbid hazel]

It says it on the portal

Around December 20

[onyx wedge]

i’m scared 💔

[iron spire]

usnews is more accurate so fordham is a t100 ig

so it’s a match school instead of safety

[onyx wedge]

is anyone planning on prelaw for fordham

[turbid hazel]

No 💔

[high wharf]

i am, but probably not going

i had a kerfuffle

@fierce nova LC campus is SMALL like extremely tiny

so getting around the campus was really easy, since it was only ~3 main buildings

and they are interconnected from the inside, so you don't need to go onto the LC streets to get around inside the campus

[ruby spade]

hi fordham besties

[ruby spade]

im polisci but not prelaw

[stark hemlock]

oh this exists

hola

[turbid hazel]

[reef ravine]

Lincoln Center!!

[covert arch]

I got inn

[covert arch]

SAME!

[limber mirage]

fordham 🫶

they will send you guys fun stickers keep an eye out

i feel bad though because i applied only because my friends also applied and i was sent a fee waiver, when decisions came out i got in and my friends all got waitlisted 😭😭😭

[high wharf]

this is literally what happened to me today lmao i applied on such a whim because it was free
i even wrote the wrong school's name on the supplement

[turbid hazel]

😭

[ruby spade]

someone did that and was accepted

this year

[turbid hazel]

congratulations on Georgetown

it’s EA right

[ruby spade]

ea yea

so im still going to shoot my shot at a few schools

[turbid hazel]

[ruby spade]

going to email my boss rn lol

she wrote me a fire rec

[high wharf]

[ruby spade]

OH

object permanence where?

[high wharf]

LMFAOO

[limber mirage]

omg real i didnmt know anything about fordham

aid was booty but they were nice and liked my instagram story and replied to it 🥀🥀

[turbid hazel]

except that it’s in nyc 💔

[limber mirage]

YES LOL

[turbid hazel]

I joined the Fordham tiktok live and someone in the comments said the host was chopped and if Fordham was an ivy

😭😭

[limber mirage]

???? 😭😭

[turbid hazel]

😭

[limber mirage]

BYE 😭

[austere moth]

somebody who also applied to qb replied to my story and asked if fordham was a QB school 🤦‍♂️

meanwhile questbridge matches were two weeks ago

[dire terrace]

Are there any internationals with less than 35k efc who still got in??

[primal steppe]

did anyone get deferred

[sleek spruce]

a lot of ppl on reddit got deferred

[waxen night]

me

[primal steppe]

bro i’m so cooked

this was supposed to be my safety

community college time

[sleek spruce]

i dont wanna toot ur horn but maybe its yield protection 🤓

[primal steppe]

i hope

yield protection for 60% acceptance rate is crazy

[sleek spruce]

ull probably get accepted rd

[stark hemlock]

???????

FUCK

portal time

[stark hemlock]

deferred 🙁

[sleek spruce]

u get in rd trust

[stark hemlock]

ig but I don't got a lot of hope

so happy to all who got in!!!

[slender sleet]

ED poll

[slender sleet]

EA poll

[reef ravine]

wait so if i got in am i cooked for more competitive schools?

[trail stratus]

https://i.imgur.com/uoDQN2D.png

[limber mirage]

nope i also got into fordham last year and williams is way more selective, this goes for any school but your decision at one doesn’t mean anything for another school

[reef ravine]

Ahhh okay tysm!

[limber mirage]

good luck!

[ruby spade]

yeah i got into gtown and fordham today

was not yield protected

[eager garnet]

are people who got deferred writing the 2 essays on the deferrance form?

i js applied cuz they waived my appli fee but turns out i forgot to submit all my materials so i got deferred...

[stark hemlock]

I'll probably be doing that yeah

writing two separate essays on top of the optional essay I did the first time sucks

is what it is

[eager garnet]

i forgot to submit my SAT on my original EA appli which resulted in me being deferred. does this hurt my RD chances because it makes me look careless?

even worse...i didnt do the optional essay in the first EA round and i only applied cuz they sentme a fee waiver 😬

[ruby spade]

probably not

[ruby spade]

this hurts your chances but it also doesn’t sound like you are super passionate about the school then right

[dull lake]

I forgot i put for check test scores on mine too lol

[fleet perch]

my friend got in w a 3.2 and like no extracurriculars

and i got deferred w much higher stats

just show your personality i’d say

unfortunately i still want to go so i need to write the essay and everything

[fleet perch]

how do you know that’s why you got deferred

[eager garnet]

bc they said i was deferred for insufficient material in the letter

[fleet perch]

ah i see

there’s a deferral essay so use that

i guess

and then explain extra stuff like your SAT etc in LOCI

[eager garnet]

i didnt know you had to pay collegeboard money to send them sat…i thought just self report on commonapp was ok

i find it stupid

[eager garnet]

yup i did the 2 essays and loci, thank you!

[turbid hazel]

you can just self report first unless they require official reports

[fleet perch]

you dont

[eager garnet]

nope, they required official reports

[eager garnet]

they said i did after i sent them an email asking why i was deferred. they said they dont take self reported scores and you need to pay collegeboard to send them your scores instead

[fleet perch]

whatttt

😭

i didn’t send them mine

and it wasn’t an issue

thats weird

[eager garnet]

wait mb its just cuz i didnt upload onto the website

i said my sat score on my commonapp appli but not int he appli portal

i confused fordham and stony brook

[fleet perch]

gotchu

[ruby spade]

this is not true

i got in and i did not

[limber mirage]

i also got in last year and did not do that lol

i felt bad cause i just did it since they sent me a fee waiver, all my friends applied but they were waitlisted 😭

[onyx wedge]

yeah ik i legit said it sarcastically

[fleet perch]

did anyone get deferred

and if so

are they doing the 45 sec video submission

and if so

where do i do it i cant find it

and don’t want to email my AO over this

[austere moth]

i thought i only had to pay 25k

but i read semester only

[turbid hazel]

Financial aid coming out soon…

[austere moth]

[ruby spade]

[ruby spade]

[fleet perch]

50k ?????? 😭

[turbid hazel]

????/

[fleet perch]

[austere moth]

HELPPP

[turbid hazel]

what does this mean

[austere moth]

WTFF

[turbid hazel]

bye i don't understand any of this

[austere moth]

it means you pay 40,600 a year

and 20,300 a semester

[fleet perch]

press more detailed info i guess

[turbid hazel]

BRO

[austere moth]

wait im confused

why is your cost payable different

i thought that was supposed to show the sticker price

WAIT

[fleet perch]

im pretty sure you got 54k in aid

[austere moth]

you have food and housing and i dont

[fleet perch]

wait nvm

you got $49k in aid

wait what

[turbid hazel]

WTF

😭

[austere moth]

WTF

[turbid hazel]

i didn tapply for housing

[fleet perch]

thankfully i got deferred

[turbid hazel]

💀

[austere moth]

wait hold on

[turbid hazel]

idk how to read this

😭

[austere moth]

my food and housing is in my tuition and fees

[turbid hazel]

💀

[austere moth]

thats why

thats why yours is in payments to others

[turbid hazel]

i still dont know how much im paying

😭

isn't 40k the aid

[austere moth]

youre paying 40k

no

[turbid hazel]

oh...

[austere moth]

im pretty sure your aid is the 35,1000

[fleet perch]

12.5k merit is literally cruel 😭.

[austere moth]

because it says total aid summary

[austere moth]

yeah

so i would pay 54k a year and you would pay 40k

[fleet perch]

amouru your total aid is 48995
ibuprofen yours is 35100

[austere moth]

💀

[fleet perch]

i think

[austere moth]

yeah

[turbid hazel]

😭

[austere moth]

and you pay less though because you didnt apply for housing

the neurons are firing

[fleet perch]

yep that

[fleet perch]

wow fordham actually sucks at aid

im sorry that’s so unaffordable

[austere moth]

well we expected it itll be okay 🥀

[fleet perch]

yea 😭

fordham is my twin brothers top choice

[austere moth]

my mom and i got so excited bcs we thought that it was 24k a year not a semester 😭

[fleet perch]

he applied RD everywhere though

did you apply to chapman?

[austere moth]

where is it

[fleet perch]

[austere moth]

[austere moth]

[timber wagon]

Hi

[zealous estuary]

[fleet perch]

Likely march 13

[zealous estuary]

i heard that some ppl r already receiving decisions do yk if thats true

[fleet perch]

yes it’s true

they have early acceptances

they had a solid amount for EA too

a good amount of them just did a program at fordham in the summer or smth

don’t stress about it too much

[merry sparrow]

march 14 i heard idk

[fleet perch]

Last year it was march 14

So that’s why i’m guessing march 13

[worn fern]

i lowkey forgot i applied to fordham ❤️

[red radish]

Maybe you can see the Fordham YouTuber

[merry sparrow]

nah fr

[worn fern]

it’s suspicious that they ask for css but not idoc LOL

[fleet perch]

it’s to be more stingy

[worn fern]

https://tenor.com/view/druski-rage-angry-annoyed-whatever-gif-5126333390325209476

[austere moth]

[river willow]

i knowwww rn my top 2 are hofstra and montclair state

[fleet perch]

i’m pretty sure it’ll be tomorrow at 4 pm est although not confirmed

[fleet perch]

yayyyyy

omg

2 months of high school left is actually insane

[river willow]

idk abt fordham yet bc i want to see if i get in or not but if i get into fordham i think itll be top 3 lowk

[fleet perch]

same with my twin brother

it’s his last school

if he gets in it’ll be between vermont oregon and fordham

[river willow]

yeah for me its between montclair hofstra and pitt, but that could change to montclair, hofstra, and then pitt/fordham

[fleet perch]

did you get into pitt

[river willow]

yeah i got in but no merit scholarships

[fleet perch]

i think i’m going to withdraw because it’s not too affordable

[river willow]

yeah i cant go to pitt unfortunately bc i cant afford it, which sucks bc i love the campus

[ruby spade]

naur u should wait it out

[fleet perch]

i got $24k a year merit but it’s still $35k a year

[ruby spade]

so u can reject them

oh u got in??

[fleet perch]

yeah + honors

[river willow]

and my mom wants me to go to seton hall and im like mom its literally the same cost as pitt

[fleet perch]

i HATE seton hall

omg

that school is cursed

[river willow]

and i told her unless by some miracle they give me like at LEAST 15k more im not going

[fleet perch]

there hasn’t been a day where they haven’t emailed me, my mom, and my dad 3x a day

[river willow]

https://klipy.com/gifs/young-sheldon-cat

[eager garnet]

it seems fordham is more selective this year so

[austere moth]

congrats guys

[austere moth]

yes

100%

unless u had an awful essay or something bcs i do feel like they prioritize writing

[eager garnet]

so….i treated fordham like a safety and didnt bother writing the essay

🥀💔

ig they saw that i had no demon interest haha i only applied cuz they waived my fee

[merry sparrow]

Ngl im kinda surprised i got in test opt 3.3 gpa

[turbid hazel]

Optional essays aren’t really optional

Just feels like they’re on the application for a reason 😭

[desert flower]

got in for urban studies!! first common app acceptance

[desert flower]

i didn't either 😭

[eager garnet]

what were your stats?

[eager garnet]

youre not too far off, their average gpa is 3.5

[gentle tangle]

[eager garnet]

[gentle tangle]

rejecfion is redirection ig

[ruby plover]

i got in international, 4.2 gpa 1540 sat and ranked around top5% , they did seem to get more competitive this year round

[gentle tangle]

wow

[ruby plover]

thank u, really is such a gamble as an international so im grateful for this option

[gentle tangle]

i thought it came out at 4

[desert flower]

3.9 u / 4.3 w

[eager garnet]

niceee

these decisions feel so random

[gentle tangle]

did anyone get scholarships

[desert flower]

must wait a week for fin aid </3

[turbid hazel]

I got my financial aid offer a month after my decision

The bigger scholarships are included in the decision letter, but the smaller scholarships are included in your financial aid portal

[worn fern]

FULL TUITION SCHOLARSHIO

[fleet perch]

fordham is known for yield

[fleet perch]

OMG Yay

[worn fern]

yeah!!

oh well fordham is weird so you might still get stuff in your FA right?

[fleet perch]

yeah def

i feel bad cuz all 3 of my friends got waitlisted

[worn fern]

oh rly? why?

[fleet perch]

and it was one of my twin brothers tops and i got in and he didn’t 😭

[worn fern]

damn

just trade places fr

[fleet perch]

they seem like they really want to separate themselves from the bronx

[merry sparrow]

Holy W

[fleet perch]

that’s definitely why

[worn fern]

oh yeah i’ve heard they’re gated and shit

[fleet perch]

yeah

[worn fern]

[merry sparrow]

Bru

These nyc schools

Smh

[naive wren]

Decisions came out?

[white belfry]

[signal forge]

[still gust]

Nah idk how to do it

Like what to specifically say and if it’s better to email or call

[still gust]

I mean they gave me a good amount of merit which makes it affordable but it’s still 20k more than my state school (Rutgers) which is 42k after merit and I wanna see if I can get Fordham somewhat within 40-60k rn it’s 66
