Fordham University Offers Tuition Discount To Yonkers Adult Learner “Neighbors” Of The College

Fordham University plans to provide financial assistance to ‘neighbors’ of the university’s Rose Hill campus

BRONX: The Fordham School of Professional and Continuing Students (PCS) announced the launch of its Good Neighbor Initiative for the Fall 2021 term on Thursday, May 6.

According to the university, this unique program, Good Neighbor Initiative, for adult learners provides an automatic 30 percent discount on tuition fees for undergraduate-seeking PCS students at the Bronx campus who live within certain neighboring zip codes.

The selected zip codes cover neighborhoods in the Bronx, lower Westchester County (Mount Vernon, Yonkers) and the very northern part of Manhattan.

Students who participate in the Good Neighbor Initiative may also qualify for additional financial aid, such as merit aid, Pell grants, support from the New York State Tuition Assistance Program, and institutional aid.

Fordham PCS will host a virtual information session about the initiative on June 2 at 6:30 p.m. where they will explain the Good Neighbor Initiative and Fordham’s undergraduate degree programs for adult learners.

Those who attend will have their application fees waived.
