r/Towson

what chance do i have getting into towson if i have a 2.8 weighted gpa💔, people told me my essay is amazing and i have a good amount of extracurriculars to submit. I’m also going to put a challenging situation ( mental health and how it affected my performance in school ) in the additional part of common app.
what was yalls gpa when applying for towson or whats the lowest you guys know that got accepted?

So I got accepted for next year and I'll be an entering freshman.. I have the option to commute or live on campus. Looking for advice on whether or not it's worth it to live off campus or should I just dorm? I can live eat home, but I really don't want to.

Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

I’m so nervous 😭

what’s up everyone. I’m an incoming freshman for the Fall 2026 term, and I’m heading into Information Systems.
in my acceptance letter says that I’ve been placed into the "Tiger Success Program." I’ve read the online stuff about it being for "high-potential students" and building "strong habits," but I want the honest student perspective.
For the people who have actually been through it: Is this program actually useful for staying on top of work, or is it just a bunch of extra meetings that feel like a waste of time? Is the community vibe real, or does it feel like a forced group? Also, does it actually help with the harder classes or is it just general stuff?
Appreciate the input. Just trying to figure out if this is gonna be a massive help or just a grind I need to get through. Thanks!

Did anyone receive there parking pass for graduation yet?

I just did the placement test and the academic interest form opens 24 hours after completing so what do I do

Hello everyone, I’m a freshman who’s majoring in Mass Communication with a minor in political science and I just wanted to know if me doing bad on the math placement will lead to me not graduating on time??

I took the test and did HORRIBLE, scoring around about a 20.

Do you think a retest is in order or will I be fine?

I know some organizations collect donations (for which they seem somewhat choosy) but are there any areas outside of the dorms that would be good for graduating HS to look for decent discards? stuff ppl are throwing out /abandoning?

Hoping to save some money and save stuff from the landfill!

Hi, like the title says, I currently have a 3.2 unweighted gpa right now going into my last semester of pre reqs. I am transferring to towson in the fall so I still need to take chem,stats, and nutrition. My gpa is not the best and ive been a B average student with all my other science classes, expect for microbio and A&P 1 which i got an A in . Im honestly really worried that my gpa wont be enough, do u think that as long as i get a good score on the TEAS I can still get in? Any help would be a great help, just hoping to make sure im not screwed in the future if I am not admitted. Thanks !

This may be kind of unusual for this sub but I keep hearing about fights at towson, specifically a fight or something that happened in the library or student union building recently. I don't really know but are fights really a common thing?? Just worried about that

I’m a senior CS student graduating this semester, and I honestly don’t know what to do at this point. I’ve been working on a huge semester-long Data Mining / Machine Learning group project entirely by myself because my assigned partner contributed absolutely nothing throughout the semester.
I worked on this project so much that it started affecting my attendance and performance in my other important classes.
I spent countless hours trying to keep everything together and make sure the project was completed properly, and now I’ve fallen behind in other coursework during one of the most important semesters of my degree.
To make matters worse, my partner doesn’t even want to participate in the presentation, meaning I’ll most likely have to present the entire project alone as well. I’m especially stressed because my professor usually doesn’t allow second attempts or make-up presentations, so I feel like there’s no room for error after carrying the full workload myself all semester.
I need a resolution to this. Can I report this ?

Any thoughts on the Anneslie neighborhood? We’re looking at a house and curious about there vibes in the neighborhood and whether ores easy to make connections. Also wondering how folks feel about dumbarton middle school

hey gang. im coming in the fall. if anyone could tell me how high off the ground the on campus dorm beds are that would be awesome. also can they get lofted? if so how high?

hi for those of you who are studying psychology at towson how is it? and would you say towson is better for psych than umd? ik towson had a clinical psych area of focus program but umd doesn't really have anything that stands out to me. but maybe i could be wrong. thanks for reading!

Hello!

This summer I am conducting an experiment on thermal tolerance in mantises and I will be going out in the field and collecting mantises and then coming in and testing them in the vivarium. I wanted to see if anyone was interested in assisting with this. This would also continue into the Fall Semester. Unfortunately, this would be unpaid but a great way to get research experience!

Has there been any increase in car break ins around the Towson square area? I had a Porsche parked in a garage & it seems that, without breaking any windows, they were able to get into my car and take a few things.
