Student review [#39607] for Psychology
at Temple University

I’ve only been here a few days and can only say that I’m impressed. Despite the Philadelphia area, Temple is an excellent school that offers a wealth of activities and opportunities for participating students. Being on campus makes me feel very safe, even for the Philadelphia location. All the program staff were very friendly and ready to help me with any questions. The classes and the people you will meet are amazing. Professors want you to succeed and really implement the opportunities so that students are truly prepared for their careers. I loved how the courses at my particular college (College of Public Health) were designed to allow us to engage with real life situations related to health and anatomy. We discussed the systemic barriers that communities face. We have learned to be culturally competent with our clients and patients and to understand how to listen effectively to a patient. Academics aside, the relationships and people I met were all unique to that particular season and shaped me greatly. Definitely a wonderful college experience!
