If it’s rolling or regular decision time already, I’d better send in my app soon because it sounds like all of you are getting great responses!</p>

<p>Drexel operates on a rolling admission policy, I had everything in the second week of September, & i found out yesterday, I think if you apply and give it 2-4 weeks, you’ll get a decision :)</p>
