Did you find that Drexel generally accepted most of the courses you had already taken if they were similar to the description. For example, I have an English Course- Advanced Writing and assume it would count for English Composition or that a business and marketing communications course would count for the communication course?
This thread is now huge! But I don't think anyone has answered you yet. In my first degree, I tested out of "English 101" and ended up taking a couple of upper level English classes... "Historical Fiction," stuff like that. Not sure exactly which they picked to use as my prereq, but it went through just fine. I think they accepted a performance class for my communication course. Especially with the non-science stuff, I don't think they are too picky. My first school was on the quarter system, and I was convinced that Drexel would try and fight me on the quarter->semester conversions, but they didn't.

Hi Everyone! I've recently been accepted in Drexel's Spring 2010 cohort, and am most likely going to attend this program. I went to Drexel for Undergrad, and it's actually my #1 choice for an Accelerated BSN because of the start date (I'll be finishing my pre-reqs in this December 2009), length and location (I have found that I prefer a city, I can not do country). I'm overjoyed about this letter because I didn't plan on being able to get into Drexel since I didn't apply until Oct 2009 (because I thought I've had enough with Philly, but now decided I'm not ready to move West until I have my RN), and I know many of you applied April 2009. Now, I'm a research maniac about their program via this websites, the FB page, etc so I can decide if (again) DU is right for me. Chances are if they hook me up whatsoever with scholarship/financial aid (especially since I've already graduated once from there!), it'll seal this deal and I'll see you all in the Spring.

Since I've read most of this feed, and its some accepted, some who have applied, and some with just general questions about Drexels ACE; does anyone think I should start a new thread for those who have been accepted for Spring 2010? Then we can start sharing information about books, advice, housing and the like. I always was planning on creating a facebook group, because I see how much Fall 2009 is using theirs (you can join this group on FB, even though we're not in that cohort- especially to buy books from people that are 6 months ahead of us). I feel as if I've researched a lot of ACE details, and would like to share and also recieve information from other soon to be students of Spring 2010. Let me know! Also, this is my first message on allnurses. Last, I absolutely can't wait to be a nurse
