Best of luck to all!

Thanks! Good luck to you too

Count me in

I went complete yesterday

I've been complete forever. I wonder if they have an in review status or if this is pretty much it.

my guess would be this is it

Very uneventful.

Judging by LSN they didn't admit anybody until mid December last year. Long wait.

checkity check

Wouldn't count on anything until at least then with a large batch coming in during the new year. Best of luck to all applicants! If you've got any questions about life as a 1L at Temple, feel free to ask em. I will answer as time permits (and how my outlining goes).

Oooh yeah. Hi. Complete 10/25 here.

Complete today (11/14), let the perpetual anxiety attack begin....

Just noticed that there is no spot on Temples application for a resume? Where did you guys upload yours? Also, at the bottom it says to add an attachment for all educational institutions attended, when there is already a section above that details that information? Did you just add again for redundancy sake? Things are always confusing.

Under attachments I added my resume to "Employment Info" and I did not add anything to the "Additional Education Info"
Where dose it say to add an attachment for all educational institutions attended?

It says to do that only if you couldn't fit them all under 'Education' on the FlexApp. I also just put my resume under 'Employment Info', since half of my resume is employment info anyway.

Complete on 11/7...keeping my fingers crossed

Applied earlier this month. Checking in!

Also checking in...& adding that when I talked to an adcomm a few months ago, she indicated that they would try to start making decisions before Christmas...so fingers crossed for late December.

at least when we get the letter it will say how much $$ they are sending your way... I submitted my app 3 days after the application went live so hopefully i'll be in the first round (+1 for all my references sending in stuff way early).

how is the temple area. I applied, but my grandparents (who are from philly) said that the area around Temple was absolutely awful and that the crime was ridiculous. They are both older and haven't lived in philly in 10 years...so their opinion might be dated. Does anyone know how the area is now?

I've heard this same thing multiple times, but I'm from Pgh and people here love to talk shit on anything Philly-related lol

The campus is fine unless you do something dumb (like walking home drunk late at night alone carrying a laptop)... Off campus is a different story.

The neighborhood you go through while driving to the school is a little rough/intimidating...but campus really is it's own sort of "bubble". They have the 3rd largest police force in the state (behind only the cities of Philly & Pitt...). I didn't feel uncomfortable at any point on campus.

Also, there are a lot of nice neighborhoods you can live in and still reach campus fairly easily, be it subway, bus, or bike. I second most what was said above. Some friends of mine who live right off campus live in some "ghetto" areas but still find it to be safe enough. I would personally suggest living in a different part of town though; your overall experience of Philadelphia would be much better.

As others have pointed out, the campus is safe, but don't venture off farther than a few blocks...

Submitted right before Thanksgiving.
