Towson is more intimate. You can find your corner and your people but it's not a mono culture and if you like being in multiple types of groups you will love it.
“Towson isn’t a lot of people’s first choice” Ouch! “The 4 year graduation rate is really low, its around 50%” Yikes! The one thing I would expect from a University is to actually PASS the Degree I am studying for!
I go to Towson currently. I live with my parents right now but am looking for dorms from Fall 2021. I have never lived outside before so I am not sure about the whole dorm process. You mentioned "west village," I think. Can you please reply to this comment with which buildings are there and how I can apply? Thank you for the information.
I know this is a year late lol, but you can apply to either captsone managed dorms (WV1 or Tubman) or barton/douglass via the Towson website. The apartment style housing in west village you must be a sophomore or higher in order to live in those buildings.

I didn't want to go to TU because I thought it would be too big. It definitely felt like a small school, though. I loved it as an undergrad and still love it as a grad student.
Yeah I totally get that! I honestly go through phases of liking vs not liking it. Overall I feel like the more involved I am on campus, the more I like TU
New RU-vidr here, too! OMG, I was an English major on the writing track at TU, too! We've got to chat about our majors sometime! Subbed. :) Hope to chat on IG. My IG is @theschoolfinesse. :) I'm currently a grad student at TU in the Professional Writing Program. :)
I did meet my fiancé at school! I think it's about the same as anywhere else - if you put yourself out there and try new things then you'll be more likely to meet people
I genuinely wanted to attend Towson when I was a senior as well! It was actually the only school I applied to. I was in the Honors College for three years. I definitely got to take some interesting courses, but in the end, the extra time commitment wasn't worth it for me any more. Good luck applying to schools this fall!
