Scholarships and Financial Aid
Graduate students are eligible for financial assistance from external, federal and university sources. Additionally, Temple students in graduate and professional programs can participate in internships, externships, assistantships and fellowships to receive further financial support. Interested applicants should consult with advisors or department chairs about the application process for their desired position.
Federal Financial Aid

Applying for federal Stafford loans requires completion of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). At Temple University, unsubsidized Stafford loans are available to full-time graduate students up to a maximum amount of $20,500 annually.
Federal Work-study
Eligibility for the Federal Work-study Program is based on the applicant’s need as determined by the information on the applicant’s FAFSA. In addition, students must be enrolled at least half time and maintain satisfactory academic progress. Students are paid biweekly for hours worked.
