Scholarships

Fox School of Business recognizes outstanding educational achievement through awarding tuition scholarships.  These awards are based on merit which includes overall GPA, accounting course GPA and GMAT scores, where applicable. Students being considered for merit-based scholarships do not need to complete additional forms or submit additional application essays or recommendations. Scholarship recipients are notified shortly after the admission decision is made.

You may also consider other sources of funding from organizations that you belong to that may offer financial aid funds. Organizations to consider include religious organizations, fraternal organizations, clubs, athletics, veteran groups, ethnic groups, unions, employers, rotary clubs, etc.

Who is eligible for loans? 
American citizens and permanent residents of the USA (Domestic students) are often eligible for federal student loans as well as supplemental (alternative) loans through private lenders.  Applicants should contact Temple University’s Office of Student Financial Services at www.temple.edu/sfs regarding questions about the total estimated cost of attendance and/or lender information.

What is the process for applying?
Domestic students may file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the upcoming academic semester during the application process. Additionally, students may file for private loans after being offered admission to the MAcc Program.

Temple University’s Office of Student Financial Services assists eligible students in obtaining State and Federal Government grants and guaranteed loans.
