I wanted to start this for anyone who is applying or did Drexel's ACE program before.
I got accepted into the Fall 18 program. Im still contemplating if I'm going to accept because I am waiting on another school. I also still have to take Microbio and Nutrition. If anyone has done the program already please drop some comments below! Thanks
Hey guys! I just accepted into the ACE program. Who else got accepted and is thinking of going? I'm in between a few schools but have to make a decision soon. The 11 months is a little intimidating - what are everyone's thoughts?
Hey guys! I think I am going to accept Drexel's admission for this upcoming fall. I was just accepted last week as I only decided I wanted to go to nursing school in April. I think it is going to be a lot of work but for 11 months I think it is worth it as many other schools only offer 2 years.
Hello. I'm a second degree holder looking to apply to Drexel's 24 month ACE nursing program. Are you currently in the program and if so, is it the 11 or 24 month option?
I graduated from the Drexel ACE program and highly recommend going to any school but Drexel for your accelerated degree. If I were to do it all over again I would not go to Drexel.
Congrats to everyone accepted! I graduated from ACE in 2016 (so yes it can be done), and I don't have any regrets or complaints about picking ACE. Yes, the program was very challenging (and not a good fit for everyone) but nursing school in general is very different from other majors! Just be prepared to work hard, and come up with a good study schedule. I had a part time job, and still managed to make time for my friends and family. I passed my exit ATI, and my boards right away. For the most part I thought my instructors were great, and my clinical instructors were awesome. Don't be discouraged! It can be done! Feel free to message/email me if you have any questions! I know how stressful it is! Good luck!
I also applied super super late. I applied late august 2017 for the April 2nd 2018 start and got accepted about two weeks later, so still apply even if it's late in the process if you're worried about finishing prereqs.
Also for people who have a ton of prereqs to do, check out portage learning, almost all (if not) all of them are on there and it's self paced and completely online. If was a life saver.
