Clark, Lana Del Ray, and Alan Alda. With such a wildly successful academic program that boasts a graduation rate of above 80%, it’s a surprise that Fordham is ranked within the top 50 most haunted colleges within the U.S. according to online reports. Boasting an attendance around 15,000 students across nine different academic disciplines, Fordham is everything a prospective student wants…even when it comes to ghosts.
