I was recently reading a tutorial for tcsh and it said that the default user shell for FreeBSD was tcsh and I was surprised.

You might want to read this section of the handbook. But there are only two shells in the base system.

The FreeBSD documentation I found says:
FreeBSD uses
tcsh
as the default root shell and the Bourne shell-compatible
sh
as the default user shell.
