Drexel ACE Program (Fall 2021)

I found out today that I was put on the waitlist. So I guess in the next few weeks I'll get a definite answer.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Hi! Just curious, do you have any outstanding prereqs? Is that maybe why you were placed on a waitlist? How long did it take since you first applied to hear back?

Strange that you were waitlisted... but clearly something on your application caught their eye. My only thinking is that you may have an outstanding pre- req pending that they are waiting for grades on just be patient because wait listing means that you're up on the list! If people don't confirm their admission you get to take their spot LOL

I only have 1 outstanding pre-req, Chemistry, and I am taking it this semester. They did say that they had a big applicant pool, so I am remaining hopeful. Drexel isn't my top choice but I like having options ya know?

Yep, only Chem. I have everything else though. I completed my application on 10/6. They said they had a big applicant pool, I'm guessing they will give me a spot if someone doesn't confirm their admission.  

For the people currently attending the program or have been accepted;

I have a few questions in regards to the tuition if you don't mind answering

1) how much is it for tuition approximately? and how much would housing+transport be? I tried looking for a fee estimator for tuition and housing and everything else on Drexel site but I couldn't find anything

2) how does the payment plan work? I know it's quarterly, but does anyone know roughly the amount you would have to pay quarterly? The website states that it is to paid monthly but doesn't provide the amount that should be paid. 

3) Drexel is super expensive so I will probably have to take out loans. I'm wondering if is it worth it in the end?

Did anyone hear receive admission whilst having a prerequ in progress?
