Drexel ACE (Spring 2022)

Published

Hi Everyone!

I know it is probably early for most, but wanted to start a thread for people applying or admitted to Drexel's ACE program for Spring 2022. I just got accepted and am planning on attending. Would love to connect with some future classmates and answer questions for anyone applying!

Hi Everyone, My twin sister and I was also accepted to the ACE program's Spring Term. We are moving to Philly from California like many of you. We are originally from Chicago, but are very familiar with the East Coast as we went to school in Upstate New York for undergrad. 

To connect in real time, my sister created a facebook group for our cohort. The name of the group is "Drexel ACE Program Spring 2022" 

Looking forward to connecting with you all in person next year! 

Congrats! Thank you for making a group for the cohort - looks like it's time to revive my old facebook account ?

I know someone may have answered this. But did anyone apply within the last 2 months and get accepted? I applied at the beginning of this month and I'm nervous about getting accepted. How long did it take for you to receive a response?

@MamaTryinNPhi! I applied late Aug and was accepted about 2 weeks later 

@cutepeachess wow that was pretty fast! Have you decided to attend Drexel as well? I’ve been checking my discover Drexel EVERYDAY about 3x a day . 

@MamaTryinNP not sure yet..still waiting on some more schools! haha yeah I know the feeling, but don't worry. they email you when there's an update, so you don't have to keep checking! good luck to you ?

@cutepeachess thanks! To you the same ! ❤️

Hi everyone! I just received my acceptance this morning, I am so excited for the program! Is anyone familiar with the Drexel / Philadelphia area? I am moving from Washington and have never been to philly so I am trying to figure out where to apartment hunt. It looks like the Drexel college of nursing is East of the Schuylkill River, I am assuming that is where classes will be held?

Congratulations! From what I understand our cohort will start in the Center City campus and then around halfway through our program they will be opening a new building that is over by the main campus in University City. I am not from Philly but pretty familiar with the area so I bet others will know more than I do. I will say that Philly is surprisingly walkable and Drexel runs shuttles to and from Center City so if you ended up nearer to one campus than the other it wouldn't be too hard to get around even if/after the locations change.

Just got in today ! Anyone else ?

Hi everyone, I was originally in the Fall 2021 cohort but I deferred to Spring 2022! Super excited to finally start the program. Anyone here from out of state? I've lived in California most of my life so I'm definitely nervous about doing a cross-country move. ?  

Hello! How are you? I hope all is well. I recently got accepted into the ACE program for Fall 2022 but need to defer. Do you mind sharing your reason for deferring and how you were able to get your deferral request accepted?
