• Test Scores (Copy of PSAT, SAT, or ACT)

You will also need to provide the name and email address of a teacher/guidance counselor. We will then email a link to a recommendation form to that person. You do not need to ask this person to write a letter on your behalf; the form will serve as their recommendation for you.

Submitting your application will initiate a review by our Office of Undergraduate Admissions. We require an application because we want to make sure that you are fully prepared to take on the challenge of a college level course at Temple University.**

After you submit your application, you will receive a confirmation email that your application has been received and is being reviewed. You will be notified by email of an admissions decision to the program.
