What is your overall opinion of this school?

A wonderful science and engineering school, professors who only want you to learn, grow, and succeed. Talking for the physics department alone, even though they’re over worked due to the high amount of Gen Ed’s they have to teach to the other majors, they still find the time and energy to help the physics majors understand their craft.

What is your overall opinion of this school?

As a Game Design Major in our school of Media and Design (Westphal College of Arts), we have access to numerous labs, programs, and are taught by working professionals on the field. Although extremely expensive, and sometimes confusing at times where the money goes, Drexel offers the co-op program; students are networked by the school to work/intern from a year to a year and a half in their fields, which leads to a high percentage of students graduating with jobs lined up in their prospective careers. These opportunities of social mobility are present from the start-- some freshman have been hired by companies like Disney or Pixar. Overall, I believe this school is great for those with personal motivation and ambition (our motto is ambition can't wait after all), as the knowledge to use current industry standard technology is taught for students to succeed in the real world.

What is your overall opinion of this school?

Looking forward to attending 2020! I am currently in the process of making my Application. It is where I inspire to make goals and achieve them. I hope my future will provide me with the opportunity to share the compassion and service I am willing to give to others as I begin my journey and path in Nursing. Drexel has always been my choice.

What is your overall opinion of this school?

Drexel was my number one choice since day one. I absolutely love it, there is always something to do. Whether on campus or in the heart of Philly, you'll never be bored. Explore the city and all the school has to offer! A very diverse school regarding the people and the academics.

What is your overall opinion of this school?

Drexel University is far too expensive, and it isn't worth the money. This school is not good enough to cost as much as it does. It also uses a quarter system which sucks. They try to cram too many exams and projects into only eight weeklong terms, so you are constantly struggling to keep up with everything. You'd do better to save yourself some money and go somewhere else.

What is your overall opinion of this school?

Drexel University is a big university that has a lot of students enrolled. Because of the large student body, some of the professors do not have enough time for all of the students. The professors are generally accessible, but most of the time, there are too many students who need help and the professors do not have enough time for everyone so some students are left behind. In terms of academics, the university is very rigorous and the quarter system is tough. Drexel's extracurriculars are subpar at best and there is not a lot fo advertisement or incentives for the students to join clubs or sports.

What is your overall opinion of this school?

Not only is Drexel University one of the top schools in the nation, it is also a top school for nursing. I have had the best experiences with my instructors and professors, who are at the top of their professional status. The school is very involved in the community, as well as participating in efforts of justice and fairness within various people groups. One thing that stands out for me is the dedication to help those in need. For instance, I have learned through attending Drexel, that they have a nurse managed clinic that provides care to the under served and impoverished. This means so much to me because that is a goal of mine when I graduate as a FNP and the very education I am receiving is from a university with a heart for the very goals I have in mind.

What is your overall opinion of this school?

Drexel is a good school just very expensive in which I am seeking assistance now however the school overall is very good and the fact that Drexel gives students the option to work online or on campus is very helpful for full time people who have children and also work full time. It allows people to still get the education that they want in order to make the money that they want so that they too can be successful. Another aspect that I like about Drexel is the communication system is very good as well.

What is your overall opinion of this school?

I took classes mostly online at Drexel University Online shortly after it was established. I had the most fabulous professors who were either readily available by telephone or responded quickly to emails. The other students in the class were very supportive as well. We not only had posted webinars and class discussion pages but we also had live classrooms a few times a semester. This was a positive experience for interacting with my peers. I enjoyed the course work and learned more than I thought I would.

What is your overall opinion of this school?

Drexel University is a very good school, but it is harder than most people anticipate. Drexel accepts 75% of applicants, but many people drop out because of the rigorous education and insane tuition. Our graduation rate is about 68%, and I am not sure if I will be able to afford the entire 4 years. Unfortunately, the tuition starts at $70k, not including housing/food, but I think they are continuing to raise the prices. I love Drexel, but my estimated cost for my sophmore year is above $90k including room/board. I am currently applying for a bunch of scholarships because otherwise, I do not know how to pay for this crazy cost. Drexel will rob you blind, but it is a good education.
