As long as you have a FAFSA for the intended academic year on file with Temple University listed, TUJ’s Financial Aid Coordinator will work with Main Campus Student Financial Services (SFS) regarding your FAFSA. You will be informed of these estimates during the visa application period of your starting semester. Typically, FAFSA estimates are available about 1-2 months  before the visa application deadline for your starting semester. To learn how to apply for FAFSA at TUJ, consult Main Campus Student Financial Services (SFS) New Tab.

Scholarship application deadlines for an upcoming semester are found on Undergraduate Program Scholarship. Scholarship decisions are sent out via email about a month after the scholarship deadline. If you completed your application for admissions after the scholarship deadline, you will not be eligible to receive a scholarship. If you receive no email regarding the scholarship results, it means that you missed the deadline and were ineligible to apply.

Current students are able to apply for Continuing Student Scholarship during the semester if they meet all of the requirements.
For information on non-TUJ scholarships, see External Scholarship Opportunities.
