The Student Experience

When students enter Fordham College at Rose Hill, they join a thriving intellectual community. Across the humanities, the social sciences, and the sciences our students pursue a remarkably diverse array of majors and develop the critical, analytical abilities to excel in a wide range of fields. With an enrollment of approximately 3,900, our classes are small, and our faculty provides in-depth advising, giving individual students exceptional opportunities to engage in undergraduate research and share in the excitement of creating new knowledge.

Fordham College at Rose Hill also encourages its students to consider broader questions of social justice and personal responsibility. As they discern and prepare for their own professional and personal callings, our students seek to enrich the lives of others, at home and abroad.

We invite you to come visit us at Rose Hill.
