Fordham was my safety school, but here's my advice:Jul 29 2010English
Fordham was my safety school, but here's my advice: So what if you get horrible grades? Make it a point to show off intellectual curiosity, and a sincere interest in the world, and you'll get in. You can do this is extracurriculars, essays, or in your recs. Just show that you are inspired to learn, and Fordham will want to teach you.

Be a good student and well rounded. Get good recommendations. But if you want to be harassed by an unorganized mess of a school... Fordham is the place for you.
