Temple University Top Questions

Temple University was one of the best schools I personally considered for the simple fact that its' student body is one of the most diverse I've ever seen, and its' campus imitates a small city in itself. When I'm on campus I feel like Temple is a town on its' own instead of a school campus, hence why you can find some of the surrounding area as 'TempleTown' on apps like Google Maps.

The quality of the professors and facilities available are just as legitimate and worthwhile as any private, exorbitantly priced university. As a transfer student, the lower cost of Temple University and knowing I would be receiving a wonderful education all the same was why I chose to be a student here. Don't let the words 'state school' fool you into thinking it's any lesser than a private, more 'prestigious' school.

Temple is a realistic school for students with a genuine student body from all walks of life that are looking to achieve excellence in their fields. I was accepted into several schools my Senior year of high school but the tuition they required combined with cost of living was unreasonable. Their status as schools however, often trumped the cost for most students that were accepted. Temple not only has a tremendous record of success for students in both the sciences and the arts, but it maintains reasonable tuition and living costs and continuously rewards those students who work and excell.

Temple University is one of the most diverse campuses around! One of my favorite aspects of Temple is the fact that it is located in the city. It is the real world and you have access to the entire city! You feel like an adult and you don't feel as if you are in a "college-town" type of bubble. I think it gives students more of a real-world outlook and understanding of life, which is amazing.

The location and diversity of types students.

Temple has excellent music faculty. They are very qualified and many of them are in the Philadelphia Orchestra. Temple is also great because it is in Philadelphia, but still has a very collegiate feel. It is convenient to all the culture and convenience of the city. Students at Temple really love it too. Everyone is really glad to be there and really loves the school. Temple also has great diversity; everyone's different, and we have all kinds of different people.

Great City....Phila.!!

More ethnically diverse than other schools I'd considered

24 hour Starbucks that has been the highest grossing one in Philadelphia... 24 hour 7-eleven that has ALL of the slurpee flavors. Diversity is pretty great here.

Hey! Come to Temple because it is a great school! You can't get diversity and top notch academics anywhere else. You also won't find a city with so much to do and so much to explore like Philadelphia!

Temple is an awesome school that provides you with many opportunities to meet new people and try exciting new things. Temple is constantly moving up in the academic ranks while its athletic teams win more and more games each year. Go Owls!

It's a diversal University

Temple is unique because of their diversity of students, the community that sorrounds the school and the variety of programs that are offered. Temple University is place where you feel you belong because it does not matter where you come from or what social class you are. It matters that you are there as any other student, and that is pursuing not just a degree, but also the opportunity to do something different. Temple makes alumni with great academic knowledge, but also great human beings aware of their surroundings and the things that affect their community.

Temple University has many unique features that are unlike other schools. I transferred to Temple University from Ithaca College and the one unique quality that is my favorite above all others is the city of Philadelphia, which the school is located in. Ithaca College is located in a small "College" town, whereas Temple is located in an active city. Temple offers many oppourtunities to help the community through community service, and even clubs which help clean the streets and plant urban gardens. I love being an active member of the community which I live in; Temple helps me achieve that.

As a city school, Temple provides diversity among a multitude of people which works as an active force to compress destructive and exclusive attitudes. Here, I have the freedom to be who I want to be without the nagging pressure to conform to my peers. Here, the confining bubble I grew up in safely, burst allowing me to take a closer glimpse at the complexity and variety of aspects in the world, such as culture and change. Temple has equipped me with the vital life skill of self expression, necessary for constructing future personal and communal success.

Temple University equals diversity. I love Temple you meet people from all over teh United States and the world.

Its not only a college town but it is a big city too. We can do anything with our freetime from going to center city to going to professional sporting events.

the sport and recreation management program.

Temple is located in the city, even though it can be an unsafe area. I like being in Philadelphia because there are many job opportunities surrounding the area.

Compared to other schools, the main thing that I like about Temple is its diversity. I enjoy being amongst other cultures and ethnicities that teach me different perspective than what I already know. It has help me to understand people better and given me a better outloook on life. Also I like the location of Temple and that it is in the heart of Philadelphia. There are so many things to do, and every where I go in the city I learn something diffferent and new. I believe that Temple is in a perfect location, and is a great University.
