<p>Hey!</p>

<p>I thought since a final decision is due by May 1st, I thought I would do this. Other Temple students on here can feel free to chime in as well :)</p>

<p>As my username would suggest, I am a Temple University sophomore, and since I was recently fired from my job, I have some free time, so I thought I would put myself out there for perspective parents/students, especially with the current safety concerns.</p>

<p>Feel free to ask me about any aspect of Temple, and I will try to answer each question. There is no real time limit as to when I will stop answering, so feel free.</p>

<p>In terms of my knowledge, I would say I am pretty well versed about quite a bit of Temple's campus life, safety, housing, study abroad, etc. I am currently planning on studying abroad over the summer, so I have some experience there, I lived in the dorms for my freshman year, and off campus in a student-oriented apartment building (I do have a lot of friends who live right off campus, as well as in other parts of the city as well, so feel free to ask about that as well). </p>

<p>Anyway, here goes!</p>

<p>Hi. How does study abroad work. My kid has full tuition scholly. I think if he goes to Temple program abroad he does not have to pay tuition. Is that right. What if he goes to a program that is not sponsored by temple</p>

<p>Sorry for the late responce.</p>

<p>Generally for a temple program, scholarships can cross over, though I would have him talk to financial aid when applying to the study abroad program, just to make sure everything is in order. </p>

<p>External programs are less likely to be covered by scholarships, but tbh I don’t know that much as I am going through Temple. All students who apply have to talk to a counselor for their school prior to applying, in order to talk these things out and explain the process. </p>
