<p>My son was accepted into the architecture program at Drexel, and we were recently there for an accepted students session. Yes, there will be only 28 people in the freshmen class for Architecture. Of course, more than 28 will ultimately be accepted, because some won’t attend. </p>

<p>However, because of the size of the program and the rolling admissions factor, they may be waitlisting now (about half of the class number were there at the session we attended). But, maybe not.</p>

<p>So, it’s hard to say. Your scores and classes from high school look good. Where else are you applying?</p>

<p>Well, you and my son may end up at the same school. Some of your list matches his. Best of luck to you!</p>

<p>I’d say u’d definitely get into Drexel, but I’m not sure about the architecture program, that’s one of their most competitive.</p>
