General Information
The Temerlin Advertising Institute was endowed by the Dallas advertising community through a pledge to augment scholarships, faculty salaries and public programs that enrich student learning and practical experience in advertising. Established in 2001, it is one of the nation’s only endowed advertising institutes. The institute enjoys a strong relationship with the industry, as it is situated in a top media and advertising market – the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. This location affords access to professionals of the highest caliber who serve as class clients, guest lecturers, executives-in-residence, adjunct faculty and internship sponsors. Students have access to high-profile internships at national and global agencies as well as client and media corporations. All undergraduate students admitted to the institute work toward a B.A. degree in advertising. Students wishing to pursue a master’s degree in advertising may apply to the graduate program. Additional information is available online at www.smu.edu/temerlin (“Graduate Studies” link) or in the Meadows School of the Arts graduate catalog.
Admission Requirements
For students wishing to pursue a B.A. in advertising at SMU, admission into the Temerlin Advertising Institute is a two-step process.
STEP ONE: Students must have completed or be enrolled in ADV 1300 and at least one introductory concentration course (ADV 1321 , ADV 1331 or ADV 1341 ). For the best preparation for step two of the admission process, it is strongly recommended that students have completed or are enrolled in the introductory concentration course for the concentration for which they are applying. Students must also be in good academic standing with the University with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.000. Students transferring from other universities must have completed equivalent courses before they can progress to step two.
STEP TWO: Advertising major candidates who have fulfilled or are fulfilling step one also must complete an application for the concentration area(s) in which they are interested. The application is offered during the spring term only. Students who are not admitted during the application process may reapply during the next application period. Dates, times, and location are posted at www.smu.edu/temerlin.
