Fordham Preparatory School Logo

Over 60% of the student body of Fordham Prep takes a MetroNorth to or from school each day and it is easily accessible from both the Fordham and Botanical Garden stops.  Each are a five to seven minute walk to Shea Hall.  Students who take MetroNorth are eligible for a discounted monthly pass.

Using the map below you can "walk" from both train stations to the Prep's Shea Hall.  The menu on the left side of the map will allow you to choose either stop.  Click on the arrows to follow the path until you have reached the entrance via the main lobby (Fordham stop) or the Hall of Honor (Botanical Garden stop).
