Is Fordham worth it?

I understand your plight, but you did get some very nice money there. Substantially more than my DD! For my DD, she figured she could afford to have loans equivalent to her first year’s salary, but any more than that would be too much of a burden. For this reason, she turned down two top 25 schools, who gave her very little money, and choose Fordham. She will graduate owing about 40% of her expected first year salary. Also, not taking a lot of loans has given her freedom to consider multiple study abroad opportunities (still need to pay airfare!) and an internship overseas. Good luck!
