<p>I will say that I know a lot of kids who have gone to Drexel (it is local) and have absolutely hated it and have transferred to Temple. They seem to overhype their co-op program and make it seem to be the best thing since the wheel (yes, even better than sliced bread). Drexel is in a horrible and dangerous part of the city, and students there seem to be at the end of some local jokes. On the other hand, I have know a few kids that have gone there and liked it (nobody has totally been in love with it). If you are ready for nasty creepy basement parties Drexel is your place. This is just MY opinion though, and I know I will face many attacks for it. The decision is all up to what you felt at both schools, and your finances. Do not be afraid to take a gap year either. Best of luck in making your decision.</p>
