The message of internship importance.

Temple University is located in the city of Philadelphia which is convenient for any type of prospective student. By being apart of a city school, students have accesss to a lot more oppurtunities such as internships and the real world. Though socializing and going out with peers is a crucial part of the college experience, it is should not be a prospective students main focus. Prospective students should attend a school that will provide ways to help them grow as individuals and gain experience.

Apart from academics and extracurricular activites I believe the most attractive aspect of Temple is the diverse city life that comes with the school. Being at Temple you are in the heart of North Philadelphia which is an extremely diverse area. With all the diversity you are able to learn life lessons that can not be taught in classrooms. Furthermore the location of Temple is very ideal because the unlimited access to the rest of the city. Temple allows its students to enteract with the city around it and opens its campus to the surrounding community.

I would consider the best thing about the school is the large diversity of majors that one can choose from. If a person is uncomfortable with their major, there is always something in a different field that is offered to them. I think the variety of options one can explore is beneficial for those who are unsure of what they want to major in.

Ira

The school cares about the success of their students and they do all they can to help them succeed. The professors are very intelligent people who want their whole class to learn the course material, so they do all they can to offer themselves for consultation.

Mary

The best thing about my school is the number of classes offered and the times. I'm able to create a convenient schedule for myself that allows me to commute as little as possible.

Karina

The diversity of my school is its best quality. The mixture of backgrounds in the students and faculty allows a space for everyone to challenge his or her beliefs, and as a result to learn and grow not simply academically, but also as an individual. All of the differences in culture around my school are inspiring, and fuel great discussion, art, and connection. This is the best atmosphere I can think of to learn and innovate in. Tuition is expensive, but the human experience is priceless.

Anthony

"There are students from just about any place or any background you can think of. They’re all different with one thing in common: the desire to be their best and make things happen." That is what I read on the website when I applied for Temple and I thought it would be perfect for me! I wanted a place where unique individuals would gather to achieve a better life and an education. As if Temple weren't already a great place to be, Philadelphia has a lot to offer as well, including great shopping and a lot of culture.

Megan

There is a diversity among the classes offered. The opportunity to take interesting and relevant classes while fulfilling general education requirements is definitely a plus. I feel as though I'm learning in an active sense while getting the opportunity to use what I've learned in this day and age. Professors also make use of technology, so it's easy to stay connected and make sure everyone's on the same page with materials, deadlines, and assignments.

Shannon

The best thing about Temple University was the diversity it bought. Every single class had an arrangement of students from different races, religions, ethnicity, and individualism which brought a variety of discussions.

I consider the best thing about my school to be the dedication that the teachers have to their students, because rather than simply lecture, they'll seek to have good classroom discussion and to challenge their students to come to their own conclusions about the material being covered.

Ali

Everything is unique at Temple. The place is unique. The people are unique. The educational experience is unique. The atheletic adventure is unique. The environmental surrounding is unique.

Gabrielle

The best thing about this school is its fairness. A lot of effort goes a long way. If you are continuously doing your work, you are going to succeed here. Those that do not are not going to succeed. In the beginning they may get by, for the first 2 years or so, but once you are in your third year those people tend to get weeded out. It is a great learning environment and it is easy to stay focused and keep a level head.

Ryan

The location, a subway ride away from visiting one of most historical cities in the United States and its also a subway ride away from my home so its easy to go home whenever and spend time with my family.

SungGyung

Almost two years at Temple University in Philadelphia, the best opportunity that Temple provided to students including myself was a connection with faculties who helped students. Faculties are willing to stay after the office hours and class times if a student does not understand the course material fully. I personally struggled with a Financial class and I scheduled a several appointments with a professor to fulfill my knowledge of course materials. For the result, I passed the course with B which I thought I could not receive without any help from the professor.
