Just a little curious about what everyone's previous degree is...

Mine is a BS in Biology.

I have asked them how they calculated everything because I had a replacement grade in my pre-requisites. Will be in touch.

I had a retake/replacement grade in my pre-reqs as well so I am very interested to hear their response. In previous threads I have seen that they like applicants who have the most pre-reqs completed and mine are all complete with A/A+ except the retake which was a B.

I got my transcript evaluation and after this semester of nutrition I am all set for the Fall! I graduated with a B.S. in psychology. I'm so excited to meet you all! I'm going to be living with one of my best friends who is going to the PA program at USciences, thinking about getting a house or an apartment. Where is everyone looking at living? Drexel has the bus system btw that will take students from the main campus to center city just to help you guys expand your options!

Hi everyone!

I got accepted on October 26th and just decided to pay the enrollment fee! I'm so nervous about this program because of all the info on how difficult it is. Hopefully it is worth it!

I think all of the one year accelerated programs are probanly equally difficult. I was nervous at first to but their NCLEX pass rate is reassuring.

Hi Everyone! I recently applied to Drexel ACE Fall 2016 program. I have all prereqs with the exception of Chem. I submitted my application on 12/11/15 and I'm waiting for one last transcript to be received. I called Drexel nursing admissions and was informed that the class is not full yet and they are still accepting applications. With the holiday I am afraid that my transcript will take long to be processed and I'll miss my chance of getting accepted. My undergrad GPA is a 3.3 and my last 60 credits is a 3.3. I am so nervous! What are the odds I will get accepted since I applied after the deadline?

My application was on hold for new grades. I sent them in Tuesday from California. Does anyone know when I should be hearing back from them?

I think the application deadline is just a priority deadline and then admission is rolling after that. If they said they still have space and you have all of the pre-reqs except one, along with your gpa it seems as if you have a pretty good chance of getting in. Is drexel your top choice?

it looks like people from last year's forum were hearing back a little after their final transcripts were received through the month of january

Thank you for the response! I have recently applied to a few other schools but Drexel is my top choice. The portal doesn't look like its been updated recently. My transcript was sent on 12/22/15 and they still haven't sent the email that its been received so I'm playing the waiting game.
