"To incoming students at Temple, spend your first semester here finding a balance between social and academic life that works for you. Enjoy your social life by stepping out of your comfort zone and meeting new people, while also prioritizing your academics and staying organized. Finding this balance from the beginning will set you up for success in your college journey!"

"As a Temple Owl, you are truly never alone. You have your at-home support system, classmates, professors, and Temple faculty from various departments cheering you on. Have a question? Please ask someone! Want to make new friends? Join a club! Having a rough time? You can talk to Tuttleman Counseling Services. You belong and we’re so very happy to have you here."

"As a Temple student, you have the opportunity to build connections with a diverse array of people here on campus. My advice is to embrace this chance by stepping out of your comfort zone, taking risks, and never hesitating to ask for help when needed. Your professors, peers, and the entire Temple community are here to support you, so don’t be afraid to reach out and make the most of your time here."
