Instructions

1. Decide which campus you want to visit. There are two main campuses in New York City for undergraduate studies, the Lincoln Center campus in Manhattan and the Rose Hill campus in the Bronx. The Lincoln center campus is home to the traditional undergraduate college and the Rose Hill campus has the Liberal Arts College and the College of Business Administration.

2. Attend a Summer Visit Day at Fordham University. Summer Visit Days offer prospective students a chance to learn more about academic programs and extra-curricular activities as well as an opportunity to meet admissions staff and take a tour of the campus. Summer visit days are available at both the Lincoln Center and Rose Hill campuses. Register for a Summer Visit Day on the Fordham website.

3. Contact Fordham University about an information session, campus tour or open house. You can call 800-FORDHAM or email to receive more information about any of these types of visits. When you call or email, be sure to specify your contact information, high school graduation year, dates you want to visit, type of visit you want to take and the number of people that will attend.

4. Use public transportation to get to either campus. As is the case for most universities and New York City, parking around Fordham can be hard to find. The D subway line stops a few blocks from the Rose Hill campus and the A, B, C, D, 1 and 9 subway trains all stop one block west of the Lincoln Center campus.
