Hi there! I'll be attending the May 2024 cohort. Are you starting in January or in May??

Thank you so much! Best of luck to you as well! ?

Hey! I actually ended up getting into Villanova's accelerated program as well so I think I'm going to go there instead!

My apologies! Thank you for clarifying all of that

I am too! I'm so excited and relieved! And no I'm not, I'll be coming from Washington state. But my best friend from college and my boyfriend's family are from the Philly area. How about you?

Ahhh OMG congratulations!!

Starting a thread for Drexel's ACE program for the 2024 Spring cohort. I just received my acceptance today and would love to chat with any other admitted students or those who've applied!

Ahh okay gotcha! Well congrats again on getting accepted and please keep us posted on how you like the program and everything once you get started in a few months! I’m sure you’re gonna crush it!???

Yea that’s what I remember hearing as well. Do you happen to know when the first cohort is supposed to graduate?

Congrats on your acceptance!! I also am very curious to hear about the experiences of people in the first cohort. I also am wondering if they have received CCNE accreditation yet as I know that since it was brand new they had not yet received it for specifically the ABSN program. All of their other programs are accredited though so I’m sure it won’t be an issue.

Hi! Just following back up on this to see if anyone had any updates on whether or not they were accepted/have started the program. I’m doing my pre-requisites now and am hoping to start in February 2024. Thanks in advance for any info that anyone may have!

Thank you so much! The insight is super helpful and I really appreciate you taking the time to respond to all of my questions and give some insight into your experience with the whole process! I would be using GI Bill benefits and receiving a housing allowance, so I’m not planning on working during the program if I’m admitted so that would hopefully help. But yea I know it’s definitely a super tough program with how fast it is, but kudos to you for making it through and congratulations! Thanks so much again and good luck with the rest of this quarter ?

Thanks so much! That’s super encouraging ? I get so psyched out because it seems as if everywhere is almost impossible to get into with how competitive everything is. I’m doing self-paced courses so I’ll just try to hustle up so I can get my application in ASAP! How are you liking the program? Also do you remember how they contacted you to let you know of the admission decision and how much time it took between submitting your application and finding out the decision? Thanks again!

Hi everyone! I wasn’t able to find a thread for folks applying for 2023, so I was hoping anyone in this thread that was accepted might be able to offer some perspective or insight so I can assess my chances of getting accepted to Drexel’s ACE program. A little about me; I’m currently an Active Duty Army Officer with a Bachelor’s in Psychology. I’m working on finishing my pre-requisite sciences and am on track to get A’s in them, which would bring my pre-req GPA to a 3.75. My undergrad GPA was a 3.57, but was closer to a 3.9 for my last 60 credits. I do have a W on my undergrad transcript but it was earlier in my college career and not during my last 60 credit hours. I’ll also still have Chemistry as an outstanding pre-req when I apply. I’m just wondering if anyone on here might be able to give me an idea of where I might stand as far as changes of getting accepted. Thanks in advance and good luck to anyone else applying!
