The Temple College Student Handbook is a source of information which details the many services, resources, and activities available at Temple College. The handbook is designed for use as a reminder to returning students and as a guide for new students.  It is a “rulebook,” a source of information provided to help you understand what is expected of you as a student and what is expected of your peers and Temple College faculty and staff.

The Handbook is not intended to be comprehensive. Instead, vital information is presented, and, when necessary, the Handbook refers to other publications that can provide more detailed information (i.e., the Temple College website, located at www.templejc.edu.) Future changes may supersede policies published herein.

Policies are subject to change. Please refer to www.templejc.edu  for the most current policy information.
