Reviews of Temple University (School)

Andros Hatzipetros

Over priced as hell. Ordered a turkey sub the first time it was decent but payed 9 dollars for the "half" sized price. Pretty small .Then got a chicken wrap for the same price a few days later. It was garbage. To say the least. And small

(Translated by Google) I chose university temple parsque it is a place proclaimed and propitious for the studies (Original) J ai choisi temple université parsque c'est un endroit clame et propice pour les études

Brittany Habbart

Don't even try calling them. They will leave you on hold and send you between the same two agencies or just to somewhere completely wrong. They are useless and the worst college for organization.

John Lim

Highly recommend joining Young Life. Look for Pam Barr. She's a fun time.

Saumil Patel

One of the best business school in the region. #1 part time Online MBA program in the nation.

Salem Saleh

Love my school.

Ben Woodworth

I have nothing bad to say about my alma mater. I just wish I had gone here all 4 years instead of wasting a crapload of money (that I'm still paying off) at a stupid private liberal arts school. If you live in Pennsylvania and want a good education for a good price, you could do much worse than Temple or a host of other great state schools PA has to offer.

DA C

The school is heading towards the right direction and I feel that the business school really prepares me well for the job market.

Ben Lang

The school is relatively nice, except for the on-campus food, but if you need financial aid, prepare to live through your worst nightmares. The aid office is completely understaffed as evident by minimum 30 minute (or upwards of 2 hours) hold times when trying to call, or if you want to go talk to someone in person you either need an appointment or a 3+ hour wait.

Bill Cosby is a legend. And Temple is a huge part of Philadelphia. But the student life sucks.

Nataliya Khoroshenko

I’ve dedicated 5 years to this school. The professors were probably the best thing about this school. If you’re in the School of Public Health you’ll love Prof. Scarpulla. She is probably the most influential and most caring professor I’ve ever had. The location is not the best. Parking was always an issue. Safety is also a concern. During orientation they teach on how to avoid rape.....so that’s not a good sign. The campus is pretty clean though.

Security is a problem

Christopher Obi Anosike

Great school for media; communications; and Business majors (i.e. finance, marketing, accounting, economics, MIS, business management and entrepreneurship); good night life; excellent food; lots of educated black people. Be sure to watch out at night because campus police on bikes don't really do much. Also the school is very bad at helping transfer students obtain employment and internships.

I'm a freshman and so far so good. I commute but I love it so much I'm about to find a apartment on campus. So much to do and a really good school

Yixuan Zeng

I am Temple made❤️

Mellow Mike

This school is a joke. I Would never recommend this school. Some good teachers, but at this point Temple is just trying to make as much money as they can on their students.

Ari Abramson

I couldn't ask for a better undergraduate experience. The challenging courses, array of student organizations, the diverse people I meet every day, and of course, being right in Philadelphia make up the experience and opportunities I would have a hard time finding anywhere else.

Solkillerexe

There's quite a bit to do at Temple and variety of activities. The campus is nice and pretty big, and the area isn't THAT bad as I went; there are a lot of police patrolling the campus, can be a good thing or a bad thing in your eyes. My only issue so far in my first year is the staff when you call. Almost NO ONE ever picks up and it takes forever(talking up to 2 hours or so) for them to answer your call, and then instantly just transfer you to another person when you ask them a question. It gets really irritating at times, especially when it comes to financial aid.Other than that, I am enjoying my first year here, and hope to spend the rest of it there. Will be updated next year~

Tiyeesha Phillips #BlackQueen

Mediocre staff, most students are beyond rude and racist. Hard to find good parking! Classrooms are outdated with technology! Only thing this University cares about is it’s football team. Advisors don’t give good advice and teachers don’t really teach. CAUTION: Apply to a different school.

Andrew Tran

Temple is one of the major universities in Philadelphia and carries North Philadelphia on its back. It continues to grow and there's been non stop construction for years now. Safety issues? Yep. The school is trying to get with security offering a 24/7 shuttle from campus to surrounding residential areas where students reside.

Great food trucks. Very few things to complain about

Philip Cameron

A staple to Philadelphia's culture and a true university for higher education on the world's stage.

thanks temple

Vaughn Parker

I loved my time at Temple! They have really great resources! I liked that they have multiple campuses, because it adds to the experience if you're able to go to each one. I was able to go on a world tour (Mexico - India - Brazil) through the International Programs Office at the Fox School of Business. It really added to my education. The campus is extremely diverse so you really can make friends anywhere. The proximity to the University of Pennsylvania allows you to get an Ivy League education at a fraction of the cost.

Xiaoya Tian

The environment here is really good, so many Squirrels, so cute, and I was surprised that they are not afraid of people!

Calvin Shum

Real, tough, and opportunistic collegiate arena. Intercontinental talent and wisdom integrated with Philadelphia and globalization makes merit, skills, fulfilling clockwork, knowhow, liberty, and healthy competition. Temple awakens, organizes, and enlightens; Owls produce.

guest c

Wonderful school with great professors! I graduated about 10 years ago, and the University has had several additions put in place to help students who live on/near the campus. For instance, there is a grocery store within walking distance and a movie theater on the campus. When I was in school, we had to take the bus or subway to get to most places. As an out of state student, I think Temple offers a great education at a competitive rate. My undergrad degree continues to take me far within my career today.

Great learning institution located in a culturally diverse part of the city. I went to both the downtown and the Ambler locations, which provided a different landscape to learn in. I really enjoyed and value my education at Temple!

Best college in Philly

Believe Images

The biology and science department is horrible. Constantly makes classes impossible. Professors are only their to get grant money and use research facilities for free. They ended up firing half my teachers AFTER I graduated. This place is horrible. Go to a community college and save your money.

Sent two kids there. Great education, affordable, and well respected university. Top notch law school as well. Sure, it's in the city, so you get a different feel than a squishy suburban campus, but, I felt very confident that my kids were getting a great education there, and I was right.

Donnell Peake

They have the Top Nursing Program in The United States.

Christopher Nyenpan

I fell in love with the school since I was a second grader, when my mom took me with her to a meeting she had on the campus. These past 4 years has been some of the greatest moments of my life. Temple is a great value for the cost. Stay great owls!!

I am a graduate student here, and feel like I have been given every opportunity I need to succeed and enhance my education. Temple might not have as much funding as Penn, but I feel like the quality of education is right on par.

Andi Rosenthal

I learned about the real world at Temple. It prepared me for everything that came after, and taught me how to navigate difficult terrain as a critical thinker. My one regret is that I did not attend as an undergraduate; but my graduate school experience was a game changer. I left my undergraduate university feeling unprepared for my career and my future, but my experiences with study, faculty, and peers at Temple changed everything for the better.

Great teachers and a nice college community. I enjoyed my experience here and felt I took away a lot. The only downside is the neighbooring areas can be a little bit dangerous!

Excellence epitomized! The facilities are pristine and beautiful and this was only surpassed by the quality of care and the superior level of dentistry I experienced throughout the years I have been a patient. Thank you to the wonderful student dentists an staff. Highly recommended!

Benny Wang

professors here are a bit easy for a private university.

Mun

Worst school ever!! We had problems with registration and the advisor was useless , they put two classes that conflicted in time for seniors students who about to graduate .. This school gave me nightmares..

Susan Davis

One of my proudest accomplishments in life is working my way through Temple University. I transferred from Villanova when I decided I wanted to major in Communications and a very honest advisor at V.U. said, "If you've been accepted into Temple's School of Communications and Theater, you need to go there. It's the best". He was right. (Temple is alot less expensive, too). Because I had so many credits in religion and philosophy when I transferred, that was my minor, and I am honored to have known. learned from and become life-long friends with the late Dr. Franklin Littell, Professor Emeritus of Religion when he died, and the world's foremost scholar on the Christian response to the holocaust. I had plenty of other fabulous professors there, as well, both in and out of my major. I went to school to learn - no time to party with working full-time - and Temple is known as a commuter school, easily accessible from all of Phiily's suburbs. I don't know about "campus food', and who cares, anyway, but the food trucks all over the campus had some of the most varied, affordable, and best-tasting breakfasts and lunches I ever ate. I am retired now, with a comfortable pension, and getting my degree from Temple made all the difference in the world in my career, the jobs I was offered, and all of my professional successes. It is a world class school in a world class city. Thank you, Temple University!

Visiting multiple universities, Temple University was the best decision I could have made. Beautiful campus, wonderful atmosphere, and great education!!

Mokshita Madan

Worst Admission process, for last 6 months my application was kept in status of Complete and Ready for Review, they don't care for your money.They want all original mark sheets of TOEFL, GRE...even before taking decision. They have good business of making money by taking application form money and giving no final decision. Please donot waste your money here.

Riley Barnes

Temple University stole my Girlfriend

Jake Murray

Temple has been nothing but a nightmare to me. I chose temple because it has great academics and it does! The classes and the support for classes is phenomenal, but what really makes this school miserable to me is everything else. This is just my experience and if you like partying and city life, this is a good school for you. But what has been terrible for me is the food, the health services and the overall campus itself. I live in Johnson and the nearby dining hall is j and h dining hall and it has the worst food I have ever tasted. The variety is non existent and the food thy do serve is not acceptable. I got sick eating the burger and because everything is so horrendous, I refused to eat their and I almost starved to death. When I went to get myself checked out after I vomited blood, the people at the health services told me to come in the next day when I told them I was vomiting blood and I had to have my mom come all the way from home to philly to take me to the local hospital where I had to have surgery and stay a few nights! If I did what they said and waited for the appointment the next day, I could have been in terrible shape! It scares me that the food services and the health services are practically worthless in this school because instead of trying to have fun, I'm more concerned with surviving the year! I have already decided that after this year I will transfer out because I can't take the lousy services this school offers. But like previously stated, this is just my experiences and the academics are wonderful which is why I chose temple. But don't expect decent food or care because u probably won't find it here. Sorry Temple but you just aren't for me

Anthony Tang

a Chinese student come here and start to make his dream come true !

Niki Ballou

The level of violent people surrounding the campus needs to be explained to your children. Do not go off campus...

Temple is an excellent university. It is well respected throughout the Delaware Valley, Tri-State Area, and particularly in major Northeastern cities. Temple provided me with a top-notch education and a strong academic foundation allowing me to pursue some highly ranked graduate programs. I can't emphasize enough how great my experience as a Temple undergraduate was. Temple is very noble in its mission and boasts a diverse array of students from different ethnicities, nations, races, and socioeconomic backgrounds. I can genuinely say that Temple U is a wonderful university that provided me with an excellent undergraduate education and an overall great college experience. Lastly, Temple University is a sleeping giant as it is one of the largest national research universities in the United States.

Ofir Afenzar

Such an amazing campus like with diverse students and rich academics

Dj Re

4 stars because my daughter loves Temple but I have to rant about one thing: $269 fee is assessed to pay tuition online!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING???? Let me get this straight--- since I am doing YOU a favor and paying online so you can HIRE LESS STAFF, I still have to be financially inconvenienced?????. Parents: if you live nearby just drop the payment off or call them to get details on mailing it in. They are understaffed so you may wait 15 -20 minutes on hold but its worth it. The staff in the Bursars office once you get them on the phone is kind, respectful and professional :-)

having a new freshman there is an amazing experience as a parent

This was my first time ever been here I'm from NJ I was disrespected the moment I walked in....I called and tried to call superior and have not yet got in touch with anyone

The best service ever!

Temple has an abundance of activities, clubs, and real world experience to offer its students. The school has a bad reputation for its location however, the surrounding area is truly much safer than most make it out to be. Just be smart and you'll be fine. I would never regret attending Temple. It has been the most fun and most important time of my life.

Murray Weismer

Boy has this place expanded since my graduation. Almost all of the places I hung at have been replaced. Still good food trucks available on Montgomery Ave.

Ian man

Great Real world experience.

Erin Schaffer

Graduated in 2008. Chose another place to go to law school, even though I got in. Mistake. Temple has been and will always be the crown jewel of acceptance, logic, and real world preparation in Philadelphia. None of the other universities in the city come close (I made the mistake of going to a different one for law school and ended up not finishing as a result). Took a class at Temple Law as a visiting student -- was 100% better than the classes I attended at the other school I chose. People were nicer, professors were more prepared, just the best experience I've ever had. Met some of my best friends here and will be thankful for life that I went instead of going Ivy as I wanted. Wasted so much money on private schools. Temple was a better education, better people and the best community experience in the city. I'm tough because of Temple. It made me who I am. OWL FOR LIFE.

Bill Cosby and Bob Saget went here. Hell! sign me up

Wonderful lace to visit and have classes in

Alexander Mann

I contacted these people ONCE.. and now I'm getting nothing but spam upon spam with no way to 'unsubscribe'. It would be cheaper to go back to my own college for grad school than to take them up on their "online courses".. which require you to stay at their facility for a week during "orientation". Most graduate programs will offer you tools and resources to ensure you'll get the best, but also have the opportunity to grasp a job upon completion. If you're looking for just the degree, fine. If you're looking for the degree and the possibility to meet contacts and have a shot at a job scouting you.. look elsewhere. From what I've experienced from just the contacting/information phase.. there is no way I'd trust these people with my money. Not to mention that none of the e-mails you get are directly through a representative nor can you respond back through that e-mail. If I'm sent an e-mail through a company, I want to at least be able to respond back directly to whom sent me that e-mail. Very low transparency = Temple University is hiding something. Do not trust.

My First year here was truly amazing. Temple has the 'complete package'!

Human Resources staff are bias in reviewing resumes and qualifications to positions at the University. Do Not Apply!

A great university! A "Diversity University" in an urban and diverse setting. On the busiest streets of Philly. A vibrant campus where something is always happening. Great opportunities fot everyone. Loved it so far.

I have loved my undergraduate experience and Temple has a vast network of employers and students. Connections galore!

William Wilson

Attending Temple University has been one of the best choices I've made in my life. I transferred from Penn State, which is itself a fantastic school, and found Temple's urban campus to be a great fit for me. Temple offers great academics, internship opportunities, extracurricular activities, sports programs, a beautiful campus--which they are always building up to be even bigger and better, caring and highly educated professors--many of whom will give their personal numbers to students for any extra help they may need, and a friendly and diverse student body. Having been to two of Pennsylvania's flagship universities offers me good insight. While both schools are great, I don't think anyone can argue against the more clear advantage Temple enjoys over Penn State: its geographical location. Having its main campus located in the heart of Philadelphia provides a wealth of opportunities for education, student life, internships, cultural experiences, and employment opportunities. I've enjoyed Temple so much I'm planning on sticking around for another three years to attend Temple's highly ranked Beasley School of Law. --Just one of the nearly 10,000 proud graduates of Temple University's Class of 2017!

Matt Nawrocki

worst campus ever. Food trucks were supposed to have great food at low price but i overpaid for an undersized burrito that made my anus bleed for 2 days.

Omar ElFakharany

We were hit with a pretty bad storm, and although all other schools in the area closed for the safety of their students, Temple forced the helpless students to come Monday, what made matters worse their night shuttle service and public weren't working, guess why, because of the snow! The same snow they forced the students to commute through. My wife had to walk home late at the freezing night only to get harassed on the way by some idiots. This place is not worthy of trusting your loved ones safety with, SHAME ON YOU TEMPLE!

Sashank Penmatsa

Best school for Under graduation!! Awesome Professors, Awesome location at the center of Philly, Awesome opportunities ranging from sports to extra-curricular to leadership opportunities. So far did not find any thing which Temple does not offer to its students. #TempleProud

I cannot believe this University is allowing Ms. Caitlyn Ricci attendance of the school. I have recently told my son he is no longer allowed to submit his application he was filling out for this University (his father graduated from Temple and he is just as ashamed this is what this University is now known as in the Midwest, the school that the drunken brat sued her parents to attend.) Since we still believe in family values and being responsible for ones actions, I refuse to pay for him to attend any University that would stand by and allow such family discord to happen, in the name of paying tuition at thier school. To me Ms. Ricci is the example of persons I definately have NO interest in my son interacting with. Shame on Temple, I guess he will just have accept Notre Dame's offer.

Jasmine Fuentes

that is code name for "we think your dumb - temple DOESN'T want you, but all we want is your $." they give you this load of crap saying do this - do that & for what? haha, "to get ahead". B.S! TEMPLE IS SERIOUSLY A JIP

Temple Made! The school is in a great location in Philly with easy access to everything the city has to offer. Campus is lined with some of the best food trucks in Philly. Temple's student resources are excellent and improving. The facilities are currently being upgraded. Overall, I had a great experience with my undergrad.

rochelle hawkins

WORST experience I have ever seen. Philadelphia is NOT a safe place. I have been getting alerts from Temple U about break-ins, burglary, and theft. The city is filthy and unsafe. Off-canpus housing cost a fortune just for slum and filth. No help from advisor and the advisors charge hundreds of dollars for matriculation including other fees. They RAISED the tuition this Fall 2016 AFTER they accepted my application (which I had to pay $200 for it online), but they did NOT raise the loans and grants they gave. Yet, they DON'T give enough loans and they tell you to get a private loan. HORRIBLE place....I can go on and on: do NOT be fooled...Temple is not safe, it's filthy, disrespectful, and too costly....GO ELSEWHERE.
