  • Nov-17-2011 I am a current student here

    3 of the 4 years I have been enrolled in college I was a commuter student. My previous college was much smaller than Towson so it was a very tight community. Towson is a large school but it becomes much smaller when you get involved. There are tons of student organizations to become a part of. There is something for everyone. Even though I currently live off campus I love my campus!

  • Sep-07-2011 I am researching this school and have visited the campus

    When I went on a tour it was hot outside and they were doing all this construction so we had to take detours all around the campus and it was awful. The campus is so spread out that you can't get a close feel for everything. The different studies are on opposite sides of the campus. I've stopped looking at this school because I didn't find it comfortable. Oh some of the dorms don't have air conditioning either.
