Does anyone know if what they received for aid in the acceptance email is everything or do they give additional need based aid at a later date?
@greta2000 - The letter I received had everything included so I doubt there is additional.
Did you guys get a physical letter in the mail yet? The portal is kinda screwy for me so I can’t see my financial aid
Evidently my D received a letter in the mail today. We are way out in Seattle so you should receive it soon.
We received a packet in the mail last night. It was a nice book too - better than some of the packets from other schools.
My son received his packet in the mail yesterday as well. Drexel is the first school he heard from and was accepted. You’d think he would feel less stressed now that he knows he will definitely be going somewhere, but he is still quite anxious to hear from some of his other schools even though Drexel is in his top tier. We are trying to figure out which accepted student days to attend. Anyone else?
@BobMahloonga Yes, my daughter is the same. On one hand is better to be able to apply to many universities, on the other hand is judgment day with each decision. They tend to take it to heart.
Tell them “A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush!”
I got in with a 40k scholarship! The school is still quite expensive though
Nice scholarship! My D received $13k which just makes Drexel unworkable.
Daughter got in with 19K Scholarship as well.

She is really excited because she got to liaise with the department she was applying to. Great school, made extra effort to know her. Now it’s a wait and see because of cost…
BTW are these “annual” merit scholarships/grants for all 4 years? It spelled it our well for year 1, but does not mention years 2-4…
I’m a pretty late but I got accepted
1480 SAT, 3.9 unweighted GPA, tons of extracurriculars and 2 internships
The application portal and letter don’t say anything about any scholarships though, so I’m a little disappointed.
