After you've submitted your graduation ticket appointment form with your appointment choices, check the Graduation Ticket Appointment Calendar on this page within 72 hours to see when your appointment will take place. On your appointed day and time, please come to room 102 on the first floor and say that you are here for your Graduation ticket appointment. You will need to set aside at least 20 minutes for this meeting.

Also, please make sure you have your Temple Student ID on you as well as cash or a credit card since there will be an opportunity to make a College donation in exchange for a College of Engineering gift.

Thank you.

What it means to give back . . .

As a Temple Engineering student, chances are you've benefited directly from the College of Engineering Annual Fund. Whether through supporting academic and co-curricular programming, scholarships, classroom and lab supplies, faculty, or even funding for everyday things the College of Engineering needs to function, the Annual Fund makes a difference.

Why are you asking me for money before I graduate?

Giving isn't so much a matter of the dollar amount, but rather showing spirited support of your College of Engineering. We hope that you are proud of the education you are receiving and want to help other future students have the same experiences.

Does my participation really matter?

It sure does! Temple Engineering's reputation will be expanded, which will increase the value of your degree. In fact, U.S. News and World Report considers the percentage of student and alumni support when calculating its rankings. A higher national ranking attracts more corporate/foundation gifts, which enhances programming. Higher rankings and better programming improves Temple Engineering's reputation, which increases the value of your degree!

Wait, doesn't my tuition pay for that stuff?

Unfortunately tuition doesn't cover the entire cost of education. The Annual Fund fills the gaps through generous donations by alumni, parents, and friends. Their support is vital to your success. However, giving doesn't just start with these constituents; it starts with YOU!

I don't have any money, or I can only afford to give a small amount. Will my gift even make a difference?

We know that as students you aren't millionaires, but maybe instead of a latte at Starbucks, give $3 to help a fellow College of Engineering student afford an education. Participation is the most important part about giving!
