Temple Admissions Class of 2021

Applied 11/1 with 3.0 Weighted GPA and without test scores!

Anyone know how long it takes on average between application and decision for rolling admission? They received all my materials a week ago.

Also, for those who have been accepted, did they send an email as soon as the updated the portal or did you have to check the portal?

@huet99 Email.

@huet99 My materials were received Dec 1 even though I submitted my app Nov 1. I was accepted today. Saw it on the portal at 7:30 am and didn’t get an email til 11

@ally22 did you get accepted rolling?

@coffee-and-cramming I was EA

@lorhop Presidential award is OOS full tuition (up to 18 credits/semester). Nothing else ?

I applied end of October and received my official letter today. Out-of-state applicant, 3.97 UW/4.45 W with a 33 ACT and I only received the Founded’a Scholarship worth $9,000/yr. I’m a little disappointed but I guess with all those deficits they really cut back on handing out those big ones.

Does anyone know if all these deficits will affect fiancial aid too? According to College Board Temple usually meets 70% of the need, but out of that 70% 45% of it is grants and the other 55% is loans? I am just wondering if that is going to change too? I have found the private schools, even with the higher tuitions, to be a lot more generous with both merit and aid.

@grtd2010 Full-tuition plus a chance to apply for a $4000 stipend.

I am beginning to think a 34 ACT or higher is needed for the Presidential now…

I was under the impression that Temple superscored the ACT, is that incorrect?

They do not superscore ACT.

@SonOfAbraham Yes, to apply for $4000 opportunity in future.

Where do you guys see merit info? Got accepted about 2 weeks ago

@ally22 No. I still haven’t received any merit scholarships info. I emailed the admissions office and they replied merit aids are still rolling out and it may be completed before March.

@ally22 It was in my D’s official admission letter which appeared on her portal checklist a few weeks after the acceptance.

I was just accepted this morning to Nursing and the Honors program!!! Waiting on merit scholarship info.

@bulldog25 my DS turned down the full tuition Presidential to Temple to attend IU Kelley, OOS. He is now a freshman there and loves it.

@phiraeth when did u apply? And what were your stats if you don’t mind me asking?

How long did it take teo get a decision? I applied on November 21 and still haven’t heard anything from Temple.
