But then U Penn's neighborhood isn't exactly fabulous either, perhaps a bit above Temple's neighborhood, but in Philadelphia (or NYC, or New Haven, or Chicago) you're going to have some sketchy neighborhoods. Our friends were skeptical but Temple's honors program provided a lot of guidance and support to their kid who needed these things. They now think it's was the perfect choice for their kid.
Columbia and NYU are both in good NYC neighborhoods. Temple would be like going to CCNY in Harlem.
What is CCNY? Have you seen Temple's campus? It's really nice and the school/students/overall vibe was really upbeat, energetic, interesting and fun. I loved the school. Not to mention it's half the price of NYU.
I'd love to hear from people who went there or know people who went there.
