Thomas Jefferson University is a great school! It has a community feel, and it's so close to resteraunts and sight seeing. Diversity of students is pretty low, but it's a very inclusive environment for those whom represent less represented populations.
Review Thomas Jefferson University
I am a student in TJU's occupational therapy program. From the beginning when putting my application in, I have had nothing but positive experiences. The admissions department was supportive and communicative while I was on the wait-list and since entering the College of Health Professions everything has been equally supportive. It is a challenging program with faculty who are dedicated to what they do and to helping students learn and apply what will be needed once we are practitioners.
The professors are great! They really care about students success, and they do their best to help students achieve their goals. Most of the classes I have taken are very interesting and engaging. In general the atmosphere on campus allows students to question and explore new topics. Classes are set up as more of discussions, rather than huge lectures.
