NYU has the label, but I don’t know the quality of their pre-health program. If you’re looking for higher medical schools, you might want to look there, since they’re more likely to take form NYU than Fordham. However, that does not mean the higher ranked medical schools won’t take from Fordham.

Anyway, if you do wish to come to Fordham, and I hope you do, you probably should go to Rose Hill. It’s geared more toward the sciences as far as I can tell with the classes than Lincoln Center is, despite LC having a Neuroscience program. It also depends on the type of campus you want, but classes and what’s in each campus should be a major factor. If you do go to the Bronx campus, just remember to have common sense and don’t completely freak out over stuff you see in the local news if you watch it. While stuff does happen, as long as you’re not alone at night and don’t stay out overly late, you’ll be fine. And this is coming from a native and current New Yorker.

I’m sure Baruch has a fine program and it’s one of the higher regarded CUNY schools. But well…it’s CUNY, and since people have a preconceived notion of CUNY, you might not get into that great of a med school. (Which stinks because my mom went to CUNY and did just fine with medical school and residency. but that was decades ago, not now. There are kids who actually ask if they should switch from CUNY in order to get to a higher graduate school due to the view many people have regarding CUNY ). So yeah, if you want cheap, Baruch is fine, but you’re gonna really have to prove yourself to med schools.

I hope you do come to Fordham and if not, good luck to you!
