<p>Your gpa is fine. Keep working on it and try to improve it. </p>

<p>Your combined SAT is a bit low. You want a 1250 CR/Math score…and really a 1300 to feel like you are in the safe zone.</p>

<p>Otherwise your ec’s are fine. Being Japanese American will help you. Most asians at Fordham are predictably Chinese. </p>

<p>Keep working hard. Good luck.</p>

<p>Apply EA and improve your SAT to at least a mid to high 1800 and I think you should be fine :).</p>

<p>Your SATs are low. Raise them and maybe take an SATII or two. Not required, but a 650+ look nice.</p>
