Transfer Student Next Steps

Congratulations!

Welcome to Fairleigh Dickinson University’s Florham Campus!

We’re proud to welcome you to the incoming Class of 2024!

You’ll find our picture-perfect setting to be the catalyst for an amazing liberal arts education, where your personal development is at the heart of everything that happens.

The Florham Campus is home to the Division III Devils and host to many diverse campus life activities which will enhance your FDU experience. Located in historic Madison, New Jersey, we are 35 miles from New York City and offer a wide range of shops, restaurants, and outdoor activities.

 

Use this checklist to ease your transition to FDU.

  • Credits that have transferred to the University will be indicated with a note next to each class on your credit evaluation. If you have questions regarding your credit evaluation, please contact:

  • Once you are ready to join our FDU Go Getters, submit your $200 tuition deposit, and an additional $350 housing deposit if you plan to live on campus.

    Submit your deposit and follow the instructions to officially join FDU!

  • If you have not done so already, be sure to complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Go to studentaid.gov/fafsa and use the FDU campus code: 002607.
