Division of University Studies and Academic Resource Center

University Studies
Recognizing that not all students can or should declare an academic major upon entering college, Temple University established the Division of University Studies (DUS) — the academic home for students who have not yet decided on a school/college or major and for students in transition within the University. Students in pre-health professions programs (pre-nursing and pre-health information management) are also served by DUS.

University Studies is not a degree-granting college. Rather it is an academic unit which exists to help students explore academic options. All students must declare a major in one of Temple’s degree-granting undergraduate schools and colleges upon completion of 60 credits, including any credits transferred from other institutions. Pre-health professions students may remain in the Division until acceptance to the College of Health Professions or declaration of an alternative academic program of study.
