Fordham Scholarships and Grants

This aid comes from Fordham's own resources and is offered to full-time traditional undergraduate students to augment aid from all other sources. Unless aid is specifically identified as a Presidential Room Award, all Fordham aid whether scholarship, grant or a remission of tuition, is a discount of tuition charges and is applicable only to Fordham tuition charges.

The total of all tuition-specific aid, internal and external, may not exceed Fordham's tuition charges. Aid is awarded for a maximum of 8 academic year undergraduate semesters (fall and spring only).

Fordham requires the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to disburse all types of aid, including merit-based scholarships. Other requirements include:

  • maintenance of 'full-time' status
  • a minimum 2.0 cumulative GPA
  • satisfactory academic performance
