Transferring To Temple University

<p>Hello my name is Eric, I have been going to a community college. Recently I have made the decision that it is time for me to find a 4 year school. I decided Temple was the best school for me. I applied for this upcoming spring 2013 semester. As of right now my application is complete and ready for review. I have 46 credits as of now and my GPA is 2.88. I also had some of my past professors write me recommendations. There not required but I thought it will help show my character and my dedication. Do I have a shot of getting in? Any advice or opinions would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>In terms of admission to Temple, it doesn’t matter what specific classes you have–it’s all about your overall GPA and academic progress. Our average transfer student GPA is a 3.00 and we prefer at least a 2.5. If you are admitted, then we evaluate course by course to show you what you are getting transfer credit for.</p>

<p>That is directly from an assistant director of admissions at Temple. </p>

<p>hope it helps</p>

<p>so they prefer a 2.5? So do you think i have a good shot with a 2.88?</p>
