Drexel University ACE Spring 2010

I hope I do! The tuition is somewhere around 34k for the whole year.

Congratulations to all that have been accepted!!! I was originally supposed to start the program Fall '09 but deferred my enrollment to Spring '10. I know this is really soon to ask, but out of curiousity....does anyone know what they are going to do for housing?

I am coming from Maryland, and would prefer not to live in on-campus housing....I thought it might be good to have some of us rent a house and live together. It could be beneficial in terms of studying, and possibly for commuting to clinicals. If anyone is interested, please let me know! You can e-mail me at Tina.Dominey@baltimorecity.gov.

Congrats! I actually live in Rittenhouse area and have been here for over a year now, so I had planned on staying here. However, I have been considering finding roommates to rent out a house for next year if I get into the program, to save a little money. So I may be interested in that...

Oh I am SO frustrated with their admissions office!! I handed in my transcripts in person and the guy in the office photocopied the envelopes onto one sheet of paper and then signed the paper saying it was received and put in the bin. So I call today to just make sure nothing was lost (since I've read so many posts about transcripts being lost and their office being disorganized) and apparently they are "still waiting" on my transcripts. I was like ***! I dropped them off! And they were like "oh.." ARGGGG. I really really really hope the disorganization of their admissions office doesn't reflect the responsibility and organization of the rest of the staff and the program itself. This is absurd!

Sorry, just needed to vent!!!

WHOA! hopefully they did not switch your records with someone else's. That would be crazy!
I talked to them today and they are on top of looking for my stuff, Fran has made it a priority.. probably because I've been harassing so much!! Hopefully it will all be straightened out soon so I can find out soon whether I've gotten in or not.

Oh that's true. Do they re-evaluate transcripts once all the pre-reqs are complete to see if you are still able to join the program? Do they let you know what GPA you need to maintain to still be qualified? Or do you just need to make sure you're still at a 3.0 in the last 60 hours?

Fran just called this morning to let me know that my transcripts were found and have been submitted for review. So now, we wait! I'm hoping it won't be too long.
