Student Life

Campus life

  • The Florham Campus, in Morris County, New Jersey, is a picture-perfect collegiate environment. Ivy-covered buildings, a strong student life program, and traditional amenities and activities make Florham the kind of place people dream about.
  • The Metropolitan Campus, in Teaneck, New Jersey, is by contrast a fast-paced, professionally oriented environment in a suburban setting that feeds off the energy of nearby New York City
  • FDU in Vancouver offers undergraduate students one of the few opportunities to earn an American college degree while studying in Canada.
  • FDU’s British campus, Wroxton College is located in the heart of rural England but is still only 70 miles from London.
