If you have been accepted to a Pre-College program this summer, please follow the steps below to ensure you are ready to begin and that you have the information you need. All next steps are due by June 13, 2025.
You will receive your pre-college acceptance decision via email to the address you indicated on your application. Emails are sent from precollege@temple.edu on or about March 1 (to anyone who applied on or before February 15) or on or about April 1 (to anyone who applied between February 16 and March 15). If you applied for the extended deadline of April 15, you will be notified by the end of April.
Your acceptance email will contain a link where you can confirm your attendance, request any changes to your classes or housing status, and pay your 10% deposit. You must complete this form before you can complete any of the remaining next steps.
All students must make a 10% deposit by May 1 and pay their remaining balance in full by June 13. You can make payments online via credit card by logging into the account you used to apply for your program and clicking “My Invoices.”
We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. We also accept checks made payable to Temple University and mailed to the Pre-College address below. We are unable to accept cash. You can pay in as many installments in whatever amounts work for you and your family, as long as you meet the payment deadline.
