Temple, good school, Philadelphia City area lots of culture and historical things to see. Well, to answer your question as a freshman expect to meet many people from all walks of life. Freshman year, your classes may not be in the actual major area until second semester of your 2nd year. You will probably be taking more of general classes so enjoy the campus life, football and basketball games. You may want to join some organizations possible one that relates to your majors.
Overall have fun because it will get harder as the years go on. Be smart and avoid drama. lol

Congratulations on getting into Temple! It's an amazing engineering school, and you should be proud.
Your freshman year is an exciting time where you'll learn to manage your own schedule. It might be challenging to wake up for classes and stay on track, but you can definitely handle it. While there will be temptations to skip classes or slack off, try to balance your time between studying and having fun.
The engineering classes in your first year are meant to be challenging to ensure you're committed. Even if it feels tough, remember you're not failing. Everyone finds the first year hard, but it gets better. As you move into your sophomore year, the classes will focus more on your specific interests, making them more enjoyable. Don't hesitate to ask professors or teaching assistants for help—they're there to support you.
Remember, the pressure you feel now will prepare you for the future. It teaches you how to handle stress, which will be useful in your career.
Also, make the most of your time at university by joining campus activities and meeting new people. Enjoy every moment!
