<p>Aw dang both of you too?? D: I’m sorry. I LOVE YOU TOOOO. <3 Haha.</p>
<p>reject from drexel/drexel …</p>
<p>rejected baby 
oh well, i got into usc lol… LOVE YA DREXEL THREAD BUDDIES <3
(srsly though how could they reject all of us?? ***??)</p>
<p>^got into USC yesterday too!</p>
<p>and i know, right, how could everyone here who has been so loyal to this thread be rejected? lol.</p>
<p>i know!! weve been here for months waiting for drexel! =[
PM me about usc, referee!!!</p>
<p>i got rejected from drexel/ducom too but have an interview for rosemont/drexel tomorrow any advice?</p>
<p>ooooooooh. congrats!</p>
<p>Got accepted to Drexel last night! :)</p>
<p>Thanks referee. </p>
<p>Had the Rosemont/DUCOM interview today. There were interviews for students for the lehigh/drexel, villanova/drexel, and rosemont/drexel program. Overall, I’d say it went well. There was a presentation by the Dean Dr. Parrish with an overview of the programs. He said there was a 1 in 5 dropout rate from the program (ducom’s 7 yr ones). He also said that they screened the applications more stringently this year (before interviews) so they would interview less kids. Last year they interviewed about 200 just for drexel/drexel. This year he said that they are interviewing 170 total including all their programs. That’s why so many of us (including me) got rejected from drexel/drexel. Therefore he said the acceptance rate for kids with an interview was going to be really high around 70-75%. He said they accepted 75 kids last year and only 25 came to drexel/drexel. Just some clarification for you guys, hope it helps. personally, I rather get rejected now rather than after an interview (interview would get my hopes up).</p>
<p>vbhasin1 - Thanks for the update … the information is valuable … and good luck to you … hope one of these programs works out for you</p>
<p>i am not sure if applicants from monmouth or muhlenberg have been invited or considered in the 170 you are talking about?</p>
<p>I got accepted too… deans scholarship, and Honors College! i am really excited but its a lot of money but i was wondering, do you think drexel is worth such a huge investment???</p>
<p>I talked to him after and that’s when he mentioned it, drexelfreak. Someone asked him about the admission rate following interviews and then he came out with all this information. </p>
<p>Also, the interviews were for those programs, but since you got an interview for drexel/drexel too it counts for both. The drexel/drexel interview day for people who only applied to that one is later I think two saturdays from now.</p>
<p>wow!! dta really great thanks for the info, i am an international student and i was already reconsidering because of the cost! This info is really helpful! Thank you again!</p>
<p>Ok Drexel’s Scholarship Awards are really confusing, i dont understand what the criteria seems to be because it doesnt seem to be merit!</p>
<p>WOW 70-75%! awesome!, yeah i only applied to drexel-drexel. 2 saturdays from today. its my only interview so far =/.</p>
<p>Halima I would also like to know how they choose scholarship candidates. I was recently accepted with the deans scholarship and honors college although I have never visited the school and do not consider myself a very competitive candidate.</p>
<p>Could I please ask for your SAT’s and GPA? We are still waiting…</p>
<p>@socccerr, ehm i really dunno, and its confusing maybe you had great extracurriculars! If you dont mind my asking what was your SAT score???
@nvamom, my SAT score was 1940; 630-cr; 640-w; 670-m… gpa 3.76 unweighted</p>
<p>I was told by a woman in the OFA at Drexel that
Drexel tends to offer more money to engineering majors bc tuition is higher for them.
COE: $56000 - $21000 scholarship
COA: $52000 - $17000</p>
<p>Still pretty much works out to be the same. Drexel is a rip-off. Rated the ugliest campus/ women in the U.S.A. Significant lack of majors offered. No single rooms. Infrastructure in a desperate state. Only good qualites are that it is located in Philly and has the beautiful Millenium Hall.
Co-ops are terrible: not only do you lose summers/academic year but they jobs you applied for are not guranteed. You could apply for a research position and end up washing dishers at XXX grill.</p>
