<p>Listen, I just got rejected by NYU. I would like to go to school in Manhattan. I dont know much about Fordham. How difficult is it to gain admission in relation to NYU?</p>
<p>it definitely would depend on the school in NYU.</p>
<p>They have a higher acceptance rate, but Fordham is still pretty selective. I think in the RD round they accept around 42%, whereas NYU accepts more around 30% (i've heard different statistics though).</p>
<p>Stats? Are you open to both Lincoln Center and Rose Hill at Fordham? But you are smart to start focusing on "plan B". Good luck.</p>
<p>Sorry about your rejection =(. Many of us are still awaiting our EA news. </p>
<p>However, you should do a little more research on Fordham to make sure it fits what you're looking for in a school, rather than applying simply because it's in Manhattan. NYU and Fordham are different, both academically and socially. If you check out their [url=<a href="http://www.fordham.edu%5Dwebsite%5B/url">www.fordham.edu]website[/url</a>] and search this forum, you'll find some threads that will give you a better look at what Fordham's about. </p>
<p>And like stephennn said, it does depend on which NYU school you applied to. Fordham's average acceptance rate is a little higher though.</p>
<p>Thanks for the input guys thi helps alot. I would be fine with both campuses. My stats are ok, the sats kill me. </p>

<p>if you need anything else ask.</p>
<p>if you look around at the acceptances and deferrals you can see that having sub 1200 CR+M is going to hurt.</p>
