I was transferred from a small private universityAverageBusiness - Management and Administration
I was transferred from a small private university due to limited business courses opened in the small university. Temple is a good choice if you like small or average class size with public school tuition, especially if you family is not rich, most of my classless with 20 to 50 students. Great opportunities in campus or internship around the city. Fox business School provides the high quality education at a lower than average cost compared with other schools. The professors really care about the students in their courses and career. A lot of job opportunities due to the location in center city. It is very diverse university. The outside neighborhood is rough around the campus, inside the campus is really safe. The ranking is low due to the high acceptance rate and the transfer from community college but the business school and overall education is great.

Question
I was a transfer student when I gotBrightPhysical Therapy/Exercise Science
I was a transfer student when I got into Temple and in my 3rd yr switched my major from AT to Ex/Sci and I have found tons more success but I still have problems at TU. Don't get me wrong, TU is a good school BUT without a doubt this place has its issues. The advising for classes is fairly good but when it comes time to sign up for class... good luck because your first couple years you probably will not get your first choice for classes. Most profs don't care but some do and those are the ones that you will love to learn from. GenEds are the biggest waste because you'll struggle to get A's and they should be easy but they're not. KINES department is very "clicky" and most majors in there are very competitive which can be good and bad. Bottom line when it comes to TU, just get finished what you have to and get out because stressed will become the most used word to describe your life.
