Oh @julietxn so so sorry to hear that! I hope you have great options in your other schools!
@adam2k17 the couple of times I needed to contact admissions, I used the link right from the portal and got a response very quickly. But, my first question was a clarification on an email my daughter received that was incorrect, and the second time it was just to check to see if they received her mid years. So, no real hard question to answer. I thought they were very very nice with their responses both times though.
@julietxn I’m a little confused as to why you applied Temple option when on another thread you said you had a 1490/1600 new SAT, why would you not submit that? :-?

Okay, so housing to new students opened at 10:00am this morning. My prospective roommate and I both logged on right at 10:00am. There was absolutely nothing available other than housing through the Edge student Village, which is Temple sponsored but not technically a part of campus. We’re excited to be living there, but we were also shocked that there were ZERO rooms available through Temple, at least as of this morning. And there were only about thirty Edge apartments available. A lot of students are going to be left checking in now and again to see if rooms become available. Did anyone else have any experiences with housing today?
Are there any cool blogs for what’s going on around campus? I can’t find anything, but I’d guess someone is writing about campus events, etc.
@philamk oh my gosh, that is worrisome! Still waiting for an admissions decision.
Temple Tab has articles written by students.
It’s The Tab Temple. If you google it, it should come up.

@wahwah16x congratulations! I’m a guy that was accepted to the nursing program as well, and also Catholic. When did you apply?
Congrats, @wahwah16x! That’s awesome! Did you just find out today?
Any acceptances recently? My D’s friend who applied mid December, got her acceptance yesterday. I wonder if that is where they are now? Has anyone called to see how backed up they may still be?
Oh my gosh! My D was accepted today! Portal updated around 2:00 pm! Over the moon!
