Core Transfers

To better encourage and facilitate transfer admission from other colleges to Temple University, Temple and these colleges have established articulation agreements with one another.

Institution-to-institution agreements:

Dual Admissions agreements conditionally admit students to Temple at the same time they are admitted to a community college, and provide merit scholarships to Temple for those students. Participating institutions are:

• Bucks County Community College
• Burlington County College (signed May 30, 2007)
• Community College of Philadelphia
• Delaware County Community College
• Harrisburg Area Community College
• Montgomery County Community College. 

Core-to-Core Transfer agreements accept -- upon Temple evaluation and approval -- the general education requirements of associate degrees in lieu of most of Temple's general education Core requirements. 

Program-to-program agreements.

These are agreements between Temple's academic schools and/or departments and other two-year institutions that provide accurate curricular information for prospective transfer students and their academic advisers by lining up associate degree requirements and baccalaureate requirement. The agreements indicate which courses students should take during their associate program in order to be prepared for the Temple baccalaureate program into which they wish to transfer.
