Does anyone know what the Drexel grant is?
This post is ten years old, but at that time it looks like there were 57 students enrolled in the Music Industry program. Questions about Drexel? - #4 by vintage13
@Schat723 the Drexel grant is need based aid.
Thanks @hillybean! Turns out my daughter knows a current freshman in music industry and he says there are about 60 students his year.

S applied EA and was deferred. He opted not to submit his SAT scores bc they were lower than he expected (SAT was cancelled on him multiple times and it ended up being very stressful). Now I am wondering if that was a mistake and we should submit them. He got 640 Eng and 540 Math. Thoughts?
I don’t think it was a mistake to not submit them because I didn’t submit my scores. I only took the ACT and didn’t get the score I wanted and because of Covid-19, I was unable to retake it. I also applied EA and I was accepted so I don’t think scores were an issue. I’ve heard that since so many people applied EA, they’re pushing back some admissions.

I’m a freshman now at another school. I didn’t apply to Drexel but last year a bunch of EA schools deferred and I was accepted to every one of them in RD. Have him write a LOCI and send it to his admissions officer along with additional LOR and accomplishments, higher grades etc.
What were his stats? my brother is applying next year.

Congrats to your daughter! I know it’s a tiny program. The MI program has about a 10% admit rate according to my son. It was his absolute first choice. He was accepted to IU’s Jacob School of Music but he ED’ed Drexel. He received a Westphal Scholarship in addition to one other. We just paid the deposit!

Congrats! We had this issue until today. My son said there was something he didn’t see that he needed to click before clicking the other thing. 
I should have expressed that better, but those are his exact words.

Hello! I am an international student. I was accepted into Drexel with aid worth around 41k, under the Early Action plan.
Did they meet 100% of your need? I am also an international student under RD plan so I wanted to know.
