Acknowledge the Financial Responsibility Agreement (FRA)
A Financial Responsibility Agreement is a disclosure agreement between you and Fordham University that states that you agree to pay all charges that result from your registration and services you receive from the university. You will be asked to acknowledge that you understand that you are responsible to pay for all charges associated with your attendance and where applicable, residence costs at the university. You will only need to sign the agreement once as long as you maintain continuous enrollment with the university.

If you do not sign your agreement within one week of receipt, you will be prevented from registering for future courses. Please read and sign the Financial Responsibility Agreement after claiming your Fordham account at my.fordham.edu.
