Hey guys, I just found out today that I've been accepted to the Drexel's ACE program for this fall!! When is the deadline for confirmation/enrollment? Also, I still haven't taken ethics which is one of the pre-reqs and they didn't mention it on the online acceptance notification will I still need to take it?

Hey everyone, I just applied to the program and was wondering (if you don't mind me asking!) what your GPA was for those who have already been accepted... I'm nervous and have above a 3.0 but everything is so competitive! Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I have been accepted to Drexel's ACE program Fall 2012. I have yet to be able to make it to an info session and I have some basic questions if anyone who has attended an info session could answer.

1. WHEN DO WE START??

2. Do we need to sign up for classes? when by? how?

3. i read something about a PDA online, do we buy those or does the school provide?

4. When is tuition due?

5. What do we need to prepare for the program? (scrubs/books/etc)

ANY good information from the info sessions is greatly appreciated... I'm really stressing out.

You have 60 days from the date of your acceptance letter to send in a deposit. (at least that's what my acceptance letter said!)

I think we start in September ... like the second or third week! The academic calendar was tricky to find online.

I called admissions and the next information session is April 24th...bummer but I'm going to go anyway because more information is always better! The Drexel ACE students at the hospital I work at currently scare the living crap out of me when they talk about the program...plus the cost...which is why I haven't made a decision yet.

But still...exciting!!!!!

I found out yesterday that I was accepted! I applied in January, although very late. I have a 3.4 undergrad GPA and a 3.32 in the prerequisite classes (I took all of them with the exception of Computer applications/public speaking/communication elective). I was freaking out that I wouldn't get in anywhere so figured I would put that for anyone also worrying :)

Thank you lindsaygags! Congratulations!!! and that's really nice to know because I applied really late too and haven't heard yet, but supposedly the program is still not full.. Maybe there's still hope for me yet!

Hey guys I was accepted to the program for Fall 2012, has anyone heard anything about the program in regards to alumni enjoying the program? Was the work manageable given the short time period?! Thanks for your help!

I received my transfer evaluation in an email and it says I still need to take three pre-req courses. I'm currently taking two of what I thought would satisfy missing requirements. Does this mean they aren't accepted those or they didn't include them since they aren't finished yet?

I got accepted a while back through rolling admission but I haven't taken A&P I/II yet. I planned to take it during the summer thinking that I'd be done in time for fall classes but they said they need all prerequisites done by August 1. Most summer courses don't end until August 22, does anyone know if I can get a deadline extension?

Also, John415, they are just waiting for you to finish them. They didn't list them for you because they are just waiting to receive your official grade (likely through a transcript) just to make sure you passed and are eligible to matriculate. Good luck!

Did anyone have any trouble getting community college courses accepted for transfer into the Ace program at Drexel?
