"Fordham University GBA concentrates on network building and teamwork throughout the graduate program. There is a healthy level of competition and students tend to work together to help other students rather than compete for the best grade. Professors tend to have many years working in business rather than in academia, which makes their perspective much more valuable and relevant."

"I am in the Master of Social Work program at Fordham University. Pros: 1. I can always meet my professors during their office hours, when I need help with an assignment or I have a question about my assignment. 2. I have access to the academic center. The tutors help me with my papers. 3. The class sizes are small, so I get personal attention. 4. The quality of education is excellent. 5. Students can get scholarships from the school, if he or she qualifies for it. 6. The program has a good reputation throughout New York. 7. There are 3 areas of concentrations that students can specialize in. They are the following: Research, Clinical Social Work, and Leadership and Macro practice. 8. The advisors are supportive. 9. Students can study part-time or full-time."

"I'd say Fordham University is a great private school education. Small classes and great teachers. The Price tag is the only issue. If you have the money and want a great education, small but beautiful campus and don't mind the Jesuits walking around (Who are a lot cooler than you think, actually), Fordham is a great place to go. If you have any financial need at all, you should probably look elsewhere. They give little to no aid to the students most in need, few athletic scholarships, and have outrageous room and board costs. Also student resources are hard to come by unless you look into them yourself."
