My D is going the Temple option route, gpa 3.57 are the essays timed?
No, they are not timed.
No, untimed.
Thanks, she submitted everything on 10/30 will let you know the outcome
Great, my daughter also went the Temple Option route and submitted on 9/23. Would so love an answer before Thanksgiving – if it’s a good answer!
Does anyone know if Temple Option applications are reviewed after the other Early Action candidates? And what are they looking for in those essays: content, grammar, punctuation?
My daughter was accepted today via Temple Option. No merit money. Film major, applied 10/26. No APs, handful of honors classes, heavy visual and performing arts involvement. 3.7/3.8. National English Honor Society. Very excited, she will attend!
I was accepted last night through Temple Option!! Applied 10/30 and business major. 3.8 WGPA and handful of honors and AP’s throughout 4 years of HS.
My D was accepted Temple Option 3.6 GPA out of state communications majors lots of quality EC’s and AP classes. applied 10/30.
Have all decisions been released. my daughter OoS Calfornia and really thought she would have heard something
January 10 is the deadline for decisions.
My son applied regular decision and completed the Temple Options essays on 10/23. The essays were not reviewed until 1/11 - almost 10 weeks! Now the system shows his application is complete and a decision will be made within 8 weeks. Has anyone encountered this? Does the review clock reset when the essays are marked as received? 18 weeks seems like a long time for a rolling admission decision. If he had known the process would take this long, he would have applied early action.

@at24 Yes, unfortunately the clock does reset when the essays are complete. My daughter’s application was finished on 9/17, but then she had to wait for the Temple Option essays, which were out of review 10/23. She heard back on 12/13 – but she applied Early Action.
Hi, just to let you know your are not the only one in this situation! I literally have the same issue and applied around the same time… I wonder how long a decison will take??

@ccn356, My son was accepted today (less than two weeks after the essays were marked as complete). Hopefully, you will receive your decision soon.
