Electrifying Eddie's

NSO at Lincoln Center will head up to Rose Hill to mingle with incoming Rose Hill students for a bi-campus mixer. This dance will happen outside on Eddie's, the quad on the Rose Hill campus, with a DJ and white lounge furniture on the steps of keating. If this event doesn't already have you hooked, then let me say that there will be chocolate fountains...two of them...with 48 different toppings to choose from.

Veniero's Bakery & Union Square

AYYYY Goombah!!! NSO will head to the eastside to Veniero's Bakery, a famous Italian Bakery founded in 1894. Orientation Leaders and new students will sit down and eat delicious baked goods and then walk to Union Square and hang for a little bit. Who said family--I mean Ramily--dinner only happened on a Sunday?

Riverside Park & Pinkberry

Students and OLs will get a break from the city by strolling up Riverside Park, Manhattan's most spectacular waterfront park, stretching four miles from 72nd to 158th Streets along the Hudson River and grab Pinkberry, a favorite place for Fordham students to grab a healthy bite of frozen yogurt. We will treat each student to a small original yogurt and toppings (like caramel, strawberries, captain crunch, and gummy bears, oh my!).

Times Square

Students and OLs will head to Times Square to be tourists for one night (and one night only) and take in the sights (and lights) of this famous (and once seedy!) neighborhood.

The High Line

The High Line is located on Manhattan's West Side. It runs from Gansevoort Street in the Meatpacking District to West 34th Street, encompasing three of Manhattan's most dynamic neighborhoods: the Meatpacking District, West Chelsea, and Hell’s Kitchen/Clinton. At the High Line Park, you can find art galleries, design studios, retailers, museums, and restaurants for a meal or a late night coffee/dessert.

The Top of the Rock

 After a busy day of orientation, top your night off at the Top of the Rock. The Observation Deck at Rockefeller Center is a perfect place to unwind and enjoy a stunning panorama of New York City. It’s a dramatic view you just can’t get anywhere else. All expenses will be paid, so take advantage of this opportunity and respond fast! The Top of the Rock is one of our most popular Orientation events and spots fill up quickly. Sign up for this event and start your school year at the top!

Upright Citizens Brigade Theater

Brooklyn Bridge Walk

Walk with us across New York's historic Brooklyn Bridge, and take in the sights of New York's scenic east river. The skyline of New York is yours to see as you stare out from the bridge's central walkway. But just remember, there's no sleep til Brooklyn.

Duet 35 Karaoke

Student's and OLs will head down to Koreatown to Duet 35 Karaoke to show us what they (don't?) got! With thousands of songs to choose from, there's no way you can resist!
