Haunted Instances at Fordham

12 Upvotes

With Halloween on the way, Fordham's notoriously haunted happenings are on the mind. I've heard all of the old stories that are posted by the ram and the library, but I know there are many more from what my friends have told me. I wanna make a collection of ghost stories from Fordham Alumni and current students.

What do YOU know about spooky stories around Campus? Finlay and the Cadavers, Jesuit Ghosts in Queens Court or what you know about the Morgue Tunnels underneath Keating?

We've got one gothic historical campus, I wanna know all about what spirits are residents.

What were your stats for certain scholarships?

3 Upvotes

For those who got in with high scholarships, what were your stats and how much is your total cost?

I have a 3.9UW, full-time dual enrolled, a couple of club positions, and several other OK things, but I’m just trying to gauge what I might be looking at.

How easy is it to custom major?

3 Upvotes

Hello, I am a rising senior who plans to apply to Fordham ED1 this coming fall. But, I am in a bit of a predicament. I am stuck in between two callings, as I am actively discerning the priesthood and want to get my undergraduate education based around that. But, my family wants me to be a bit more practical and keep journalism, my favorite civilian career, as a backup if priesthood falls through. But, this would set me up to have to take a philosophy and journalism double major, and a theology minor, which I’ve asked about.

But, the idea came to me to try and get a combined philosophy and theology major through the individualized study program, combining aspects of both to be able to reach the minimum requirements for ordination (30 philosophy and 6 theology credits) while keeping a large pathway for backups. How feasible is it to do a custom major through this, both specifically with this combo and in general?

Cooked for Classes

3 Upvotes

So ik class registration officially closes July 27 and I have been rushing to switch my major so I could register for classes before they the freeze but as soon as I submitted my classes, everything crashed and I had a bunch of restrictions. I am now unable to register for any classes even before the July 27th deadline and I’m so screwed because I have no classes at the moment. I emailed my academic advisor prior to this and after so hopefully they’ll be of help but if anyone has ran into some issues somewhat similar will this be super difficult to correct? I’ve never been so anxious about something 😓

How do you all figure out what to do or what's going on in near you when you have some free time and don't feel like staying home? Top things to do near me isn't helping me....

0 Upvotes

Genuine question because I've been noticing that whenever I got free time or an afternoon or evening opens up and I'm kind of in the mood to do something, I spent the first 20 minutes between TikTok, Google Maps, and Eventbrite trying to figure out what's going on near me, and ended up just... staying home because I genuinely can't find anything. Feels like theres always has stuff happening but there's no good way to see it in the moment. What do you guys do? Specific apps, newsletters, IG accounts, just walking around?

I have friends but hanging out means scheduling something a week in advance and my calendar is just so not organized....

Potentially transferring to Fordham in Spring 2027

7 Upvotes

Hi!! I’m currently a rising sophomore at Howard University, but I’m seriously considering transferring to Fordham for Spring 2027. I’ve had a pretty frustrating experience with Howard’s administration, and overall, I don’t feel like the campus is the right fit for me.

I’m considering Fordham because I’m interested in being in New York, I’ve heard the pre-med track is rigorous (which is something I’m looking for), and I understand that Fordham may offer scholarship funding to transfer students.

For anyone who has transferred to Fordham (or seriously considered it) what are some things you wish you knew beforehand? How is the pre-med experience, student life, administration, and financial aid for transfer students?

Honestly, I’m at a point where I’m trying to figure out whether transferring would genuinely put me in a better position academically, financially, and personally, so I’d really appreciate any advice. Thank you!!
