Academic Advising

For the Classes of 2026 and 2027

Students at FCLC and FCRH are advised and supported by professional advisers throughout their undergraduate careers, in close contact with departments, programs, the assistant dean for student support and success, and other areas across the university. Advising for all undergraduates in the colleges is designed to support student success in keeping with Fordham's values and mission, and it includes robust faculty mentoring.

For the Classes of 2024 and 2025

In their first year at Fordham, most undergraduates in the classes of 2024 and 2025 were supported by core or transfer advisers—faculty members and administrators who have a general knowledge of the core curriculum and college degree requirements and policies.

Upon declaring a major, students receive their primary advising on all matters pertaining to their major from their department or program, while class deans—and the assistant dean for student support and success—advise students on fulfilling their core curriculum and graduation requirements. Students are encouraged to consult their major advisers regularly to discuss their academic and professional progress.
