Has anyone been accepted using Temple Option with merit scholarships?

I applied using Temple Option on 10/31 and still haven’t heard back. I am a pretty strong writer and spent an entire night on the questions. I have a W94.034 GPA and am 111/368 in my class. I’m OOS female and Temple is my number one choice, but I am worried that I won’t get any money and I can’t seem to find an answer for this. HELP!!

I heard several times at the Open House and tours at Temple that, yes, Temple Option students are eligible for merit scholarships. But I don’t know what the threshold is grade-wise.

Daughter accepted this morning! 3.7/3.8. No APs Film major. Honors classes last year and this year. National English Honor Society. Lots of visual and performing arts invovlement. Committed as soon as we found out! OOs (NJ)

I should have mentioned, no merit money. Got merit scholarships to 6 other schools, 2 for a significant amount. But this is where she wants to go.

@My3Daughters I was accepted!! I’m so happy to hear about your daughter because I know she’s been waiting a while as well. Good luck to her

@mimo12 CONGRATS!!
