So, Fordham's been ringing around my head recently. Wanted to ask if anybody knows the average SAT score for students admitted to Fordham? Is the SAT still necessary or have they gone test-optional? Any help would be appreciated - thanks!
Fordham is currently test optional. Based on its latest reported data, the middle 50% SAT score range for admitted students at Fordham was between 1340-1470. That means 25% of students scored below 1340, and another 25% scored above 1470. While this does give you a sense of the scores that Fordham is looking for, remember that these are just averages. There will be students who get in with lower scores and students with higher scores who don't.
Keep in mind that, similar to most universities, Fordham doesn't rely solely on test scores for admission decisions. Your GPA, course rigor, extracurricular activities, letters of recommendation, and essays also contribute significantly to your overall profile.
