To clarify, I want to confirm that you’re talking about Early Assurance programs in which you are granted admission to a medical school a year before the traditional application period.

If so, then a plus to Drexel is that you will already be familiar with the area, the school, the city, and have less things to figure out as you make the switch from Undergrad to Medical School. Another plus is the size - Drexel Early Assurance accepts more students per year than Ursinus does.

That being said, both programs are relatively equal and serve the same purpose. The biggest difference will come down to the actual undergrad experience at each university. Drexel and Ursinus are very different schools. If you want to hear more on this, I’m happy to post more, but I’m not sure if this what you’re asking about.

The Ursinus Drexel program is an 8 yr early assurance program. It is a single program. 4 yrs at Ursinus and then 4 yrs at Drexel Med.
