TEMPLE'S NOT TYPICAL. 5 REASONS THAT PROVE IT. You’re not average—that’s clear because you’ve already been accepted to Temple. This isn’t your typical university, and Philadelphia definitely isn’t an ordinary city. Here are the top five reasons why there is no typical Temple experience.

1. There’s no one face of Temple—Temple represents the world. The person sitting next to you in class could be from anywhere—California, a small town that is actually only 20 minutes away from where you grew up, or even Vietnam.

2. Some students study jewelry making and sell one-of-a-kind earrings on Etsy. Some students study jewelry making and use their unique dexterity to become dental technicians. There’s no one way to use your Temple degree.

3. Seriously, Philadelphia will be your classroom and your home—there’s no one way to immerse yourself in the city. Your Philadelphia could be volunteering at an afterschool program near the Italian Market, or listening to your favorite podcast as you charge up the Rocky steps every Sunday morning.

4. There’s no one way to throw down on a Saturday. You can hop on the subway and head downtown to eat your way through Philly’s famous Reading Terminal Market, go to the football game or hang out with the paranormal society. It’s nearly impossible not to fit in somewhere—Temple’s got it all, even ghosts. Maybe.

5. Temple is going to push you to do you, and there’s no one way to be you. See it for yourself—plan a visit and discover Temple’s energy.
