About Extension Services
Through the Office of Extension Services, the university offers a wide array of off-campus credit courses, certificates, undergraduate and graduate degrees; non-credit workshops, certificates, and ACT 48 seminars.
The staff of Extension Services, in partnership with the various university departments, schools and colleges, administers the same high quality education programs students receive on Temple's campuses at various off-site locations. These include, but are not limited to, middle schools, high schools, school districts, community colleges, career and technical schools, businesses and non-profit agencies.
Program Administration
The Office of Extension Services has unique features that set it apart from other area training providers. All administrative support services are provided on site. Registration, tuition collection, and textbook purchases are arranged so that no student is required to travel to a Temple campus location to enroll in their specific program. All students are also given a Temple University ID, providing access to all campus resources, programs and special events. For more information, please contact one of the Extension Services staff at (215) 204-5018 or (215) 204-7239 or e-mail extserv@temple.edu.
