I actually have the same problem about choosing Temple and my state school, I just loved it there ( I know it has safety issues and what not), my state school is pretty good and ranked higher (doesn't mean much) but still, Temple was sweet. Of course, don't make the decision now, wait till you see the Fin. Aid package first.
hey, could you explain what you mean by "Financial aid package" is there some unknown element to this? Perhaps you mean potential scholarships that might reduce the cost of tuition?
