While the faculty are ok, the university is thoroughly disorganized and near-impossible to navigate (unless you enjoy spending an entire day accomplishing a relatively simple task, like getting your transcripts—which cost money here—inquiring about your financial aid, getting a letter of intent so you aren't charged late fees for student loans that you shouldn't be responsible for yet, etc, etc). If you are not funded, they will not help you secure employment, nor will they provide you with enough aid to cover the basic costs of living. They will charge you fees for absolutely everything and, while they are slow to update your files, they will immediately fine you for your lateness (even if it is their fault/ an inaccuracy in their records). I would avoid Temple, even if it is the only graduate program that accepts you—it is not worth it.
