Fordham has its own established community in one of New York's best boroughs and the quality of campus life dismantles the typical preconceived notions people have about the Bronx. The school offers several strong liberal arts programs, notable theater. There is great social opportunity with regard to community service, internships, networking, and heightened political awareness. When you're only minutes away from Yankee Stadium and "The City", students really can boast that they always have something great to do.
The Prudent Student (October 7, 2009)
So it's time to start looking at schools and you realized that during your four years of high school you might have spent a little bit too much time on experiences, fun or maybe even athletics.
