Philadelphia University
With a small complement of students, but a huge range of courses, if you've come to Philadelphia University you are probably looking for personal attention and excellent teaching quality. From its roots as a purely textile-based school, Philadelphia University now has schools of architecture, business administration, design and media, engineering and textiles, liberal arts and science and health.
Big on Media Studies
While Philadelphia ranks sixth-largest in the US by population, it is actually the fourth largest consumer of media, as ranked by AC Nielsen. It was actually once the second-largest city in the British Empire, after London! In the nation's first capital, history, sightseeing, local markets, block parties, yard sales and other community events are the most popular weekend activities.
Strangely Spread Out!
Philadelphia is not particularly walkable - an odd characteristic for an historic, well-populated city! The area around Philadelphia University is ranked 49 out of 100 for walkability - most amenities are located over half a mile from the school. Put your skates on!

Always Fun in Philadelphia
Philadelphians live in one of the most beautifully historic cities in the US ... and they like to celebrate it at every opportunity! Festivals and fairs are staged for such eclectic topics as India, Hippies, Doo Wop and the Caribbean, as well as every alternative culture you could poke a stick at!
