Whoops (application mistake)

Colleges and Universities A-Z Fordham University

<p>Well, this isn't so much of an application mistake as it is me just being incredibly indecisive. </p>

<p>Okay, so I applied to Fordham already, YC app, EA. However, I checked that I was applying to Rose Hill, when I had recently decided to apply to Lincoln Center. I contacted the admissions office and they told me they would change it for me. </p>

<p>But now, (dun dun dun), I think I actually would like to go to Rose Hill. I really like the campus and I think the whole "traditional" atmosphere is nice. RH was originally my first choice, but I think I leaned toward LC for diversity reasons, and also because I wanted to live in NYC. My feelings on both have changed a little.</p>

<p>So what do I do now? Bother the adcoms again and ask them to change it back? Wait until I hear my decision? The only thing about that is I read that admission to LC is a little harder than RH, for students living on campus, and I really don't want to jeopardize my chances of admission. But I do feel weird asking them to go back and change the whole thing back to RH; I don't want them to have a neg. impression of me before they even see my app! What should I do? I'm a little surprised out how easily this whole "applying to college" process can stress me.</p>

<p>Also, is the relation between RH and the Bronx community really as strained as it seems? I've seen/heard comments by many of its students, and it seems that there's some tension there.</p>

<p>Actually when you call Fordham and they make the change you arent speaking with an admission counsler whom actual looks at your app and decides, you are only speaking to the reps that answer calls and are able to make minor changes to apps, such as, directing it to different campuses. So, call them again and tell them you changed your mind and you want to be at RH. All they do is click a little box that says RH instead of LC and your app is transferred. </p>

<p>For future, If you decide to come to Fordham and go to RH and you decide that you still dont like it you can change to LC, its called internal transfer. Its all very simple.</p>

<p>That's good to hear. I'm still a bit conflicted though.</p>
