Fordham Preparatory School (commonly known as Fordham Prep) is an American, independent, Jesuit, boys' college-preparatory school located on the Rose Hill campus of Fordham University in the Bronx, a borough of New York City. From its founding in 1841 until 1970, the school was under the direction of Fordham University. In 1970, it separated from the University, establishing itself as an independent preparatory school with its own administration, endowment, and Board of Trustees.[3]
