<p>I applied for Mechanical Engineering, and I got accepted. My only concern is that they also said: While your credentials are impressive, we are unable to offer you admission to the accelerated program to which you have applied.</p>
<p>I am confused as to what this means. Am I still able to go to Drexel with a mechanical engineering major?</p>
<p>yes, the accelerated program is separate. you must have a applied to 5-year BS/MS degree program for mechanical engineering. While you were not accepted to that program, you were still accepted as a mechanical engineering major.</p>
<p>Thank you very much! Another question… I applied for the four-year co-op. Is there any way I can switch to the five-year co-op?</p>
<p>I’m not sure, I would call and ask. I’m only an accepted student as well. If I end up going, I’d be a biomedical engineering in the accelerated degree program with the 5 year co-op. </p>
<p>I just looked on the website and the co-ops don’t start until you’re a couple years in so I would imagine you could join. </p>
<p>Definitely call and ask though because participating in one lowers your tuition by 8000 dollars. Plus, as an engineering co-op you’ll make a about 17,000 dollars for each one of those 6-month periods. Cha-ching.</p>
<p>Yeah, you can switch co-op cycles. Just call and ask them.</p>
<p>you can switch your co-op from 4 to 5 years…i simply emailed admissions and they changed it for me within 3 or 4 days and i received a new acceptance letter in the mail</p>
<p>bobbyo242, did you email admissions using this website?

<p>hey, i applied for the 4 year - 1 coop computer engineering program, but later on switch to the 5 year - 3 coop by calling them. I didn’t have any problem changing it. Actually, they were pretty cool about it</p>
<p>prime, did you call or email them?</p>
<p>I called them. 1-800-2-Drexel</p>
<p>I called them again a few days ago to change my major and there was no problem with that either. I was able to have it changed, but make sure to be really nice and say, “thank you” afterwards.</p>
