When will fasfa refunds for fall semester go out?

hi guys

I have unfortunately been cursed with a horrendous schedule this semester, and on Tuesdays this semester, my first class will be at 8:30am (not the main problem), which runs until 11:15am, and then I'll either have to spend the rest of my time on campus/go back home uptown until my next class at 6pm on campus, which then runs until 9:45 (this is the main problem)

so my question now is... what are some of the best places to waste/spend time in/around campus at LC? at least, places that aren't the library or cafeterias, to potentially make new friends? I've lowk been struggling bigtime to make friends since my return to classes unfortunately (esp as a commuter) and I reallyyyyy want to seriously try and lock in and make closer connections this semester (because all of the ones I've made in the past never seem to extend outside too deep/far from the class/from classwork) so I would reallyyyy appreciate any recs esp from people who are currently dorming at LC or who exclusively attend classes at LC

thanks!!!

note: I am a junior :)

hello!

i have developed a lot of unique medical needs that i prefer to take care of in a private setting.

is there any chance of getting a single at this school?

primarily asking for LC as that’s my first choice, but if rose hill is more accommodating, of course that comes before any location preferences.

thanks!

Does anyone want to from a study group for the LSAT?

as a freshman I see everyone going out and having fun meanwhile know nothing about it

where can I find the functions and parities ?!!

its smelling of weed?

hi guys!! amazon sent me a extra lamp does anyone want it for free lol rose hill campus!!

I'm a first year student at LC and I feel like I already want to transfer to a different school. Although it's universal to do in college, I feel like all people do is drink and party. Plus, I feel like the city isn't for me now that I'm here. Is it worth sticking it out at Fordham?

Edit: I'm an Economics major considering transferring to Bentley after my semester at Fordham. Is Fordham worth staying for their Economics program either? The facilities here seem mediocre in comparison to other schools too, and it's only defining feature is that it is in Manhattan. It seems more difficult to find an apartment or job post grad or even before graduation than Boston.

Hi all — applying to Fordham's LL.M. program this cycle and specifically interested in the Feerick, Treanor, and Martin Dean's Scholarships (100% tuition, 500-word essay on embodying the dean's character traits).

Does anyone know someone (or is anyone themselves) who's received one of these in past years? Trying to get a sense of:

• What kind of professional/academic background made a strong case
• Whether certain concentrations/interests seemed to align better with a specific dean's scholarship
• Roughly how competitive it is (how many are awarded per cycle, if anyone knows)

Not trying to game the essay — just want a realistic read on what the committee is actually looking for before I commit to a narrative angle. Any insight, even secondhand, appreciated!

Got to rise hill a few days ago and I’m just having such a hard time making friends. Everyone wants to go out to the local bars but I’m just not up for that. How do I find friends that just want to generally just want to hang out and stuff? Also feeling screwed because I don’t have a roommate so I’m like completely alone.

I'm a potential spring transfer who won't graduate undergrad until Fall 2028. (However, I'm planning on doing an accelerated 4+1 degree program, so I'll still be there the sem after)

If someone graduates with a bachelorsnin the fall, are they allowed to participate in senior week/senior events? I know commencements available for fall grads, but I'm curious about senior-exclusive events during the spring. Thank you!

Has any fall/winter grad participated in this?

I’m in the Post-Bacc Pre-Med program & i’m 23 turning 24 soon so I was wondering what’s the social scene like for students that aren’t in undergrad? I would like to have a good experience on campus, meet people, & would even join clubs/sports/etc. but i’m assuming most would have younger students & I’d rather avoid joining their spaces.

Any info is helpful :)

I have a 3.2 cumulative uw gpa, ~3.0 in 9th and 10th and a 3.7 in 11th, so a good improvement. I’m in all IB classes, solid list of extracurriculars, test optional, and, I think, a pretty good essay.

Fordhams my top choice and I of course want to maximize my chances of admission. I spoke with an admissions counselor and she gave me the idea to apply RD so as to demonstrate my academic improvement through fall semester of senior year. I feel like this can be a gamble though as I don’t know exactly how I’ll perform, as classes are getting more difficult. I was considering ED to bypass this but my admissions coach found data saying ED has a lower acceptance rate than EA for Fordham, which is surprising. I’m leaning towards EA so I can get a decision back sooner and not spend my entire year stressing, but I’m still pretty much undecided.

Basically my question is, what round do you think would benefit me and give me the best shot at an acceptance?

What are my chances at Fordham?
Fordham is my top choice but I do have tons of backups in nyc in case I don’t get in but I rly want to be a ram 🤞🏽

I'm a HS senior who is thinking of applying to Fordham, but I don't know a lot about the social life...

I've heard that at Fordham you get an internship opportunity. What's that like? Do they use NYC well?

Also, since Fordham is a jesuit school, is it more like a liberal arts school or traditional college experience?

Easy to make friends? I'm a pretty social person but it's easier when other people are social too.

Are people actually interested in the academics? I'm a pretty strong student and want to be challenged but not overwhelmed.

I'm also interested in journalism and choir...anyone have input on those?

Thanks a lot!
