The type of students at Hunter and Fordham differ greatly. Kids at Hunter are primarily city kids whose parents can’t afford LAC tuitions. Many are quite bright. In addition to the girl I mentioned earlier, my D has another friend in Macaulay Honors who attended Bronx Science and yet another friend who graduated HS a year early because she ran out of classes to take. My D was accepted but opted not to attend because she hates the city, wanted to be further away from home and wanted a course of study not offered there.

If you’re into business, though, Baruch is the school for you. I don’t know if it has dorms.

Personally, I don’t think Fordham is worth the money. The kids from my area who have gone there (with one exception) are losers with rich parents.
