Drexel ACE Acceptance

[whitehat]

Does anyone remember how long it took to get an acceptance letter from the Drexel ACE program after your application was complete?

I applied last year for the fall of 2008 and my application was complete about a month ago and was wondering how this process works?

Should I be bugging them?

Thanks!

hey ...

so I called today and they said I should be receiving a letter later on this week with their decision....

I have completed all my pre-req's except for nutrition, growth&dev, and ethics.

Athens!! What a great way to relax before starting the ACE program.

I will update you on the response.

take care

Congrats to those accepted. To those who haven't heard yet, Drexel (particularly ACE) is known for telling things last minute... so get used to it! LOL.

I am about to start my second quarter of ACE. So far, I think it is a pretty good program. I was lucky enough to get some really great professors last quarter. Like any program there are great professors, good professors, and not-so-good professors. I think as long as you go into it is with a "Go Get 'Em" attitude, and you get a good handful of friends to study with, talk to, and relax with in the program, you will be great!

Keep me in mind when you start. I will gladly sell books that are being used again.

Best of Luck to everyone!

i everyone..

I just received my letter today and I was not accepted.:o

I guess because my GPA was a 2.85 in my undergrad...

im upset... but I will apply to other schools.

I might try again for the spring semester. Or just take some time off. I don't know, I am really bummed.

take care

fouzia I am sorry to hear the bad news. I haven't heard back from them yet, I am getting nervous. I don't understand why you didn't get accepted, don't you just have to have above a 2.75 GPA or 3.0 in last 60 hrs plus a C or above in prereqs? What was your gpa in the last 60 hours? I am just trying to figure out what drexel is looking for!

Fouzia,

So sad to hear your news! Definitely try again for spring - the admissions people told me many people re-applied for spring and were accepted. Be sure to keep us all posted! If nursing is your passion, you'll make it.

I am hoping for fall 2010 admissions. Does anyone know if it helps or hurts your application to send in letters of rec??
