Deferment Essay

Hi all,

So I recently got deferred from Fordham (Rose Hill) a few weeks back. On the form to still continue to be evaluated, I have to write an essay. I was just wondering if it is a requirement? I am going to do it either way but I do not see people talking about it much on here???

My daughter got the same exact thing, yes. She applied to Fordham but hasn’t actually visited so we are visiting this weekend to make sure she definitely wants to go further in the process and continue with the essay. From what I hear, she will be continuing:)

If you remain interested in Fordham I would absolutely write the additional essay.

I’m just curious, what is the essay prompt?

@5678abc “In order to assist the Admission Committee in the continued evaluation of your application, please respond to the following question (150-300 words): Fordham University is identified as “The Jesuit University of New York”. How does that description inform your vision of the ideal college experience?”
