Did you already finish your casper test or did the email notify you if you had to have it done? I haven't completed mine thinking that it won't be needed until I receive an interview invite

I had my CASPer completed before getting my interview. I had also completed my CASPer snapshot before the interview itself.

I thought temple just required the casper test not snapshot?
 
Hey to anyone who has already interview, have you gotten any news about the Open House on October 2nd?

You will be promptly notified when there is a status change on your application."

good sign or bad?
 
I got the same e-mail too .... I feel, that it is both positive and negative. Positive that they are NOT rejecting, negative that they are not giving us the interview right away and they want to see more applications to evaluate ....

Just got an email too... I see you guys all who are getting this email applied the end of June but I submitted late, closer to the end of July. Weird. Good luck guys!
 
I got one too. I submitted June 16
I got one too and my application wasn’t finished until end of august. They may be sending this to everyone. I’m not sure it if even means anything, maybe it’s just an email from the admissions office to cut down on people emailing them and asking.

I applied in June 20th, as well.
 
I just received an interview from Temple! I have not taken my CASPER test yet, and the next available date to schedule the exam is Oct 13th. Is it okay to schedule an interview before I take the test?
