Transfer Agreements

To better encourage and facilitate the transfer of Valley Forge Military Academy and College students to Temple University, Temple and Valley Forge Military Academy and College have established the following transfer agreements: 

Dual Admissions

The Dual Admissions agreement between Temple and Valley Forge Military Academy and College conditionally admits students to Temple at the same time they are admitted to Valley Forge Military Academy and College, and provides the opportunity for merit scholarships to Temple for eligible students. Interested students must enroll in the Dual Admissions program before attaining 30 transferable credits, including any colleges previously attended. Students are then admitted to Temple upon attaining their associate's degrees at the community college. Click here for more information about Dual Admissions with Valley Forge Military College.

GenEd-to-GenEd Transfer Agreement
