The Institute of International Education (IIE) selected Temple University as one of 51 institutions to receive the IIE American Passport Project grant, enabling 25 Temple Cecil B. Moore Scholars to obtain their first U.S. passport at no cost. This project, designed to increase access to international education, removes a financial barrier to study abroad, and ensures students receive support for navigating the passport application process and study abroad planning early in their academic career.
