GRANTS AND LOANS

Federal Stafford Loans

Loans are available to students enrolled for at least five credit hours per semester.   The government will pay the interest on subsidized loans until six months after the borrower has terminated his or her studies. Applications and further information are available at your local bank, credit union, lending institution.

Important: In your interest we urge you to use discretion in borrowing money for school. Your loans should not exceed your projected educational costs.

Federal Work Study Program

The Federal Work Study Program at Temple is designed to stimulate and promote the part-time employment of students who have demonstrated financial need and who require the wages from employment to pursue their studies. Students in the Work Study Program are employed by the University or by other public or private, nonprofit institutions, organizations, or agencies. The Financial Aid Office will make reasonable efforts to assist with placing students in jobs related to their vocational objectives. Employment  under the Federal Work Study Program is awarded as part of the financial aid package.
