r/Temple

Hey guys pretty much the title, I was a health professions major last semester but switched into public health because of the anxiety I was having over some of the classes (physics) but now after doing the major for a while, the stuff is interesting but I am thinking to do the pre med requirements on the side since after exploring, I don't think I see myself doing anything else BESIDES medicine.

I dont think I will switch again to health profession because everyone looks very miserable just trying to get through the requirements alone, I still want to learn things that interest me while doing the medical stuff on the slide i just didn't want it to be my whole identity. I am unsure of what to do because I can only fit in a few pre med classes and the rest I would have to take after I graduate or during the summer. I was thinking about maybe doing an MPH and then go back and doing the pre med classes at a cc but I feel like it would take longer. All thoughts would be helpful ty.

hi!! i'm already committed to temple but i just got off the waitlist for rutgers nb and i dont know where i should go, for context im a business major and plan to go to law school!

my pros for temple are that:
- #1 major (business law) + im in the business school (good for backup)
- i like the city
- new experience
- campus life (dorms, bathrooms, food)
- i already have a roommate + social life is good
- easy to study abroad
- all my college credits transfer
- perfect distance from home (1hr)
- campus is pretty & walkable

my cons for temple are that:
- saftey (is it that bad being in north philly?)
- ranking (not top 100)
- family prefers rutgers

my pros for rutgers are that:
- ranking (40)
- more known academics
- slightly cheaper (in-state)
- family wants me here

my cons for rutgers are that:
- not the major i want (in the environmental and bio science school) as an environmental and business econ major
- i'd need to transfer to another school to get a good major (either sas or rbs)
- bad campus life (dorms, bathrooms, food)
- not the best social life
- too close for my liking (not necessarily a con)
- bus system is bad
- none of my college credits transfer

Has anyone gotten into a grad ceremony without tickets? I am trying to get my friends to come to my grad and well this wasn't planned out and kind of last minute so I was just wondering about anyone else's experience about going to a grad w/o a ticket + I don't wanna be asking anyone for extra grad tix, so just curious.

Hello everybody, I hope everybody is having a good day or night. As someone that’s thinking of going to this school? What are your reasons as to why you chose to go to school here. Do/did you regret it, if so why? If not, what are some memories and moments that made you stay and enjoy it ?

Give me identifying info about the keychain and I will find a way to get it back to you.

If no one responds by the end of semester, I’ll drop it somewhere, maybe the student union building front desk unless there’s an official Lost and Found

What are some good off campus housing? My price range is $400-$700 per month. Preferably near campus but willing to be in West Philly.

Your best bet always is to look up last year's livestream on YouTube. That should at least put you in the ballpark.

Having a friend visit tomorrow and was wondering if they were allowed to enter Paley w me

Hey everyone!

Unfortunately I ran into financial burdens after I signed a lease for a room off campus, so I am looking for someone to fill in the spot. It’s a nice room with three other roommate’s(girls only). $675 a month with access to private parking, in unit washer and dryer, full kitchen, and private room with private bathroom. DM me if interested!

Me and my 3 friends have a place, around 500$ a month, 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom. Around 10-15 mins away from campus. We are looking for someone who needs housing for only one semester. We’re all girls and will be 2nd years next school year. If you’re interested lmk and send me your Instagram so we can chat more about it.

Hi! I’m deciding between Temple and Rutgers NB and could really use some advice.

I’m in-state for Rutgers and out-of-state for Temple. I plan to major in sports media/media production. Temple offers a sports media major, but Rutgers doesn’t have that specific program.

I like city vibes, which is a big reason I’m considering Temple. I’ve visited both campuses and liked them. Rutgers has a lot of food options, and College Ave is really nice. I also like the atmosphere at Rutgers sports games. However, I’ve heard the bus system there can be hectic, which worries me.

If you’ve studied media at either school, how is it? How easy is it to get hands-on experience and start working with sports teams?

Also, if you go to Temple, is it hard for freshmen to get into Morgan Hall?

And activities to do around campus.

Any info about either school would really help, thanks!

Does/did anyone else feel this way? Figured temple having a large % of commuter students made it a common phenomenon. From outta state transferring from CC & moved into GMA's in West Philly last spring. Met/made a good friend the first week. However he graduated that semester.. Eversince have had 0 luck. From clubs joined to folks Ive approached & chatted with. Atp sitting all year just sitting & watching a packed campus of girls walking & guys laughing in groups kills you inside. Not tryna come off "sad-fishing" just needed to vent this Saturday night.

yall probs know but just in case. they’re doing track work on the southbound side. everything is supposed to be back to normal by tomorrow.

northbound should be running as normal

I have no clue what to expect for this
