ELIGIBILITY:

Criteria are shaped by the size and quality of the applicant class, as well as available funding. No separate application is needed for consideration for a merit scholarship, as your admissions application serves both purposes. Be sure to submit all of your documentation and admissions application by the requisite deadlines—or earlier.

If you are admitted to Temple and you have submitted your enrollment deposit, you must have your secondary school send your final transcript or proof of graduation to Temple.

Temple exclusively uses the Common App. When completing your application for Temple, be sure to indicate whether you’re applying Early Action or Regular Decision. 

There’s a required application fee of $55, which you will submit at the same time as the Common App unless you qualify for a waiver.

BENEFIT:

For first-year students, these awards range up to $20,000 per year for up to four years.
