<p>@mandypandy why thank you! :)</p>

<p>@pamom59 I think it has to do with the 4yr v. 5 yr plans. It seems that people are encouraged to do five year with 3 yr co-op, because it costs $7,400 more to do it in four years than in five. Browsing through this thread, it also seems that those who apply for five years get better scholarships. Also those who apply for engineering/business/science/math/whatever seem to get more money too. Drexel isn’t famous for its humanities program as far as I know, so that makes sense.</p>

<p>Plus, blueshirtsrule has a much better GPA than me. A college might be a little more wary of a student whose GPA and SAT scores don’t totally match up.</p>

<p>I received the dean’s scholarship for $16,500.
it seems like the range is from 10-20k for the dean’s scholarship.</p>

<p>My SATs were horrible though.
Math: 630
Reading: 510
Writing: 560</p>

<p>Total: 1700</p>

<p>I applied for the undecided engineering and still got in. It must be because of my overwhelming amount of extracuriccular activites though.</p>
