Drexel ACE fall 2015

Published

Hi all!

I just submitted my application for Drexels ACE fall 2015 program and was curious if anyone else has applied or heard back from admissions?

I have a 3.1 cGPA and around a 3.4 sGPA, is this considered competitive with past applicants?

Also, how is everyone planing on paying for this-I understand it's pretty pricey and aid packages aren't close to covering it...

Best of luck!

How many people have been accepted yet? It seems like most people are still waiting to hear, right?

FYI everyone I emailed drexel about the November 12th orientation because I was curious about the timeline and this was the response:

"You should receive a decision fairly soon, hopefully before November 15th. There is an event on November 12th that is a general information session for accepted ACE students. This is not orientation. You would be participating in new student orientation in the Summer with the majority of our other students."

Sharing is caring:

"Thank you for your Email. The admissions committee began review for the fall term in mid-October. As there is a backlog of completed applications, it may be 6-8 weeks before students hear of a decision. Thank you for your patience as we move through this queue. I can confirm that your application is complete and ready for review.

Regarding November 12, there is an information session on campus on that day. This is not an Orientation, but merely a chance to have your questions answered by staff and faculty. Students are welcome to attend whether or not they have been admitted, as there are two separate sessions. If you would like to register, please call our main office at 215-895-2400."

[h=1]I registered, online, this morning. It seems there may be an opportunity for those traveling more than 150 miles to receive a $500 tuition break. The link didn't work for me, however.
