[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fordham - Lincoln Center. In a great section of Manhattan. [/quote]

I live near Lincoln Center. Love the neighborhood. Not where I would want to go to college as an undergrad. Particularly since most of Fordham is in the Bronx.[/quote]

The Lincoln Center campus seems great for performing art majors and kids that really truly want to be right in the middle of downtown.

While the undergrad population at RH is larger, Lincoln Center has over 2,500 students which is still sizable.[/quote]

For the arts I agree it is a great place to be. But otherwise there is zero sense of community. Columbia is much more unified, and even NYU, which is huge and more spread out, feels like more of a college. Fordham is just a few random buildings mixed into a bunch of tall residential towers and the Lincoln Center campus (and some NYCHA). I guess I can see how being in a situation could initially be exciting for someone who has never been in NYC, but I feel like you have the rest of your life for that.

Not bad mouthing it - just providing some perspective. I'm still net-net very pro-Fordham as I have worked with several alums and been impressed.[/quote]
