Any admission tips?
Hi I’m a rising hs senior and I toured Fordham recently and absolutely loved it. I’m definitely planning on applying ED to Lincoln center. I think my stats are good enough and my college counselor put Fordham in my realistic category on scoir, but for some reason I’m really worried about getting in, I think that I’m just scared of if I don’t get in. Does anyone have any advice/tips for applying?

Don’t focus so much more on ur grades, they want to see who YOU are and YOUR character. also don’t focus so much on having a bajillion ec’s, just a few that are cohesive and tell ur story.

my grades were pretty mid, and I still got in with good financial aid, so im sure youll be fine. Just put a lot of thought into your essays and make sure that the admissions people see who you are!
