A guide to off-campus housing
While the transition from dorm life to off-campus living can be exciting, it can also be stressful, confusing and raise a number of questions for both students and their families. Where do you start your search? What apartments are close to campus? How can I find a roommate?
Temple University is committed to helping make this process as easy as possible with its Best Nest Program. Learn.
ACADEMIC SUPPORT SERVICES
Is your student stressed about upcoming papers and presentations? Fox peer tutors can help
Rose Rybak is a junior risk management & insurance major who was looking for guidance with "proofreading, grammar, brainstorming ideas and paper structure."
To help, Rose (above left) signed up for tutoring services at the Fox Business Communication Center (BCC) Rose worked closely with senior MIS major and peer tutor Lauren Quinn (right).
Rose reflects on her experience with the BCC:
I 100% believe the BCC has made my assignments better. I learned how to identify common mistakes and how to correct them.
If you're looking to secure a better grade on an assignment, I strongly recommend the BCC to all Fox students. It's also a lot less intimidating because it's your peers helping you out!
Want your student to have an amazing experience like Rose?
