Towson University Top Questions

Compared to other schools I've considered, Towson is unique to me personally because of it's music program. In high school, I was member of the marching band and every year we would go to Towson for our state's competition. Because I was involved with music in high school, I've always had some connection to Towson since they're well known for the excellent music program.

The psychology program at Towson is very strong. I worked with a woman who was an expert in her field and regarded as such around the world. I also minored in Theatre, and I have to say the community within this major would be difficult to replicate anywhere else. As well, our Theatre program was well run and funded.

The overall diversity of the university is great. Aside from racial and ethnic diversity, the students are very diverse in their interests and aspirations. From extreme overachievers to slackers, science geeks to pot junkies, rich and poor, the school seems to have all types of students which can not be said the same for many of the other schools that I applied to.

More diversity is packed into a much smaller campus. I love the fact that the school almost feels isolated like a city within itself. Some of the other schools I considered were actually in cities and I felt a little uncomfortable. I feel right at home here.

Towson is unique in the sense that it is a metropolitian type of school, but the classes are always small enough that a student receives individualizes attention. Towson's professors are also great about understanding student needs for learning.

Towson University is very culturally diverse and accepting. We had a huge community with all different types of people. The atmosphere is so dynamic as well, you can choose to study hard non-stop, go out and party and make new friends, or attend a variety of events, (alot with free stuff too!). Such a great place to be, I love it!

my school is the only one In MD that offers a B.A in Deaf Studies. there are a few selections when looking for schools that have this major and Towson University has one of the best programs. I also think the school is the perfect size. you will never have the problem of felling like you 1 in 300 students, which is great.

I don't really know if there's very much unique about this school; it just feels very open and accepting. I considered Hofstra University, which was much bigger and also much more expensive. Towson is just... affordable. It's nice, simple, not much to it. It has a good selection of majors and classes in each general education category. It's just... a good school, I like it.

Out of all the schools that I considered, Towson University is the only one that had Family Studies as a major and not just a minor. When I began college, my major was Broadcast Journalism and my minor was Family Studies. It did not take me long to realize that Family Studies was the program that I was most passionate about. I quickly changed Family Studies to my major. If I did not have the opportunity to do so, I do not know where I would be with my studies right now.

It's small enough not to have huge 300 student classes. Their art building is simply amazing and it was the one thing that attracted me to Towson other than the fact that it is one of the top schools for teachers. From what I hear, Towson really helps teachers find jobs when they graduate.
