Congratulations!

Welcome to FDU’s Metropolitan Campus

We’re proud to welcome you to Fairleigh Dickinson University!

The bustling Metropolitan Campus is home to the Division I Knights and a variety of campus life activities which will enhance your FDU experience. We’re less than six miles from New York City, where students can explore the city and pursue their career goals.

Next Steps for Admitted Students
Use this checklist to join FDU and go for what you love!
  • 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 fafsa.gov and use the Metropolitan Campus code: 002607.

    If you have any questions, or would like to set up an appointment, call the Office of Financial Aid at 201.692.2363 or email finaid@fdu.edu

  • Are you a determined high achiever looking for more challenge and inspiration? Explore the benefits of joining our University Honors Programs or apply to one of our programs today! Have questions? Email fduhonors@fdu.edu.

  • Once you submit your deposit, your confirmation notification will provide you with instructions to activate your FDU NetID! Activate your FDU NetID to access New Student Orientation registration, submit your health forms, and register for housing if you are planning to live on campus.

    Do not forget to keep your FDU NetID (username and password) somewhere safe! This is what you’ll use to check your FDU emails and more once the semester begins.

    For answers to questions about activating your FDU NetID, contact the University Technical Assistance Center at fdutac@fdu.edu or 973-443-8822– and have your FDU student ID from your acceptance letter handy!

  • After submitting your deposit, use your FDU NetID to register for New Student Orientation! This experience will give you the opportunity to meet your classmates, learn about the FDU and Metro Campus culture, and discover everything you need to know about being a college student!

    If you have any questions, please contact us at metroorientation@fdu.edu.

  • There’s no better place to be than on campus! Complete your online Housing and Meal Plan Application if you plan to reside here. Use your FDU email (NetID) to access the housing application.
