Tutoring Services
Students are encouraged to take advantage of free tutoring available to support their success at Fordham. These services are offered at no charge to students.

Academic support and tutoring are also available from select departments and the Fordham Writing Center. More information below.

Providing more than a proofreading service, tutors will work with you on a variety of logical, rhetorical, and grammatical concerns in your writing. They can assist you with any type of writing from conception, to composition, to completion. The aim is not only to help you perfect an individual essay but to help you develop the skills you need to become a better writer.

Health Services/Counseling
University Health Services provides accessible and high-quality health care services to Fordham University Students. It is our goal that students will develop an understanding of dealing with their own health, both physical and mental. We provide education to students with the expectation that this knowledge will enable them to live healthy lifestyles, promote wellness, and enable them to achieve academically, spiritually, and socially. Our medical team recognizes and welcomes the uniqueness of our students and we respect human diversity in all its forms. We are members of the Ally Network of Support and we are committed to providing an inclusive environment for all. We assist our students in developing moral and ethical values and characteristics that reflect the Jesuit tradition in regard to health promotion and illness prevention.
