3.69/164 Should I put an app in at Fordham

Non-URM. My gpa is slightly above the median for Fordham's full time program, I was curious if putting in an app would be worth $70. Coming from California, I could use a change of scenery. Their application does not list a 'why fordham' essay option, should I write one anyways?

Way too optimistic.

Medians were 3.62 / 166.

Above/Below. I'd say less than a 40% shot at admissions.

Worth an app, but your chances aren't great.

Definitely worth putting an application in. Two cycles ago, I was waitlisted and admitted part time with a 3.6 and a 164. Depending on the rest of your application, I think you could be 50/50. I'm really hoping I get in this time around with a 166 and a 3.6!
