<p>Kaetiiii - You will have no problem getting into Temple. Have you taken the SAT or ACT? You should take both to see which one you excel in because scholarship money depends on a minimum of one of these scores (usually 1300 SAT and 30 ACT) and good GPA. You already have a good GPA so prepare well for the the SAT/ACT which will open many doors for acceptances and merit money. </p>

<p>As for other colleges, not real sure about your major though I’m pretty sure that University of Maryland has a good forensic major. First make a criteria of the type of college you want to attend - like size of student population, location (urban or rural) and area of the country, etc. Then get a good book that has a listing of colleges by state with descriptions and list of “most popular majors”. Make a list of possible options and then explore those schools by website and request information. Lastly, the only way to really know is to try to visit the college this summer or fall. Hope this helps and Good Luck.</p>
