Hey - Thanks for the positive thread. I am starting in September and I am beginning to think I should have never started reading these posts! Thanks again.

Hello- There are numerous places to live. Cheap may be hard to come by...I think you should expect to pay anywhere from $800 - $1500 a month depending on where you live. You may be able to find a studio or similiar for less. I live in Roxborough and the rents are within that range. As it gets closer to coming I would check out Craigs List as there are always postings for apartments. If you would like to PM me with questions please feel free to do so.

Hi Cathy- I am also attending in the Fall. I am going to have to go the Private loan route. I will probably be doing my FAFSA this weekend, but I don't expect much in the way of federal aid. I have heard Sallie Mae is pretty decent but I am going to shop around for the best rate becuse it is a lot of money:(

Hey Soccer- I found out on Monday I got accepted to Drexel for Fall of 07' I am definitely attending. Let me know if you are too. Thanks.

Hey Lunise - Your PM box is full.....

Hello- I also applied to Drexel for Fall of 07' I hope to hear back by Thanksgiving. Also looking to gather as much information as I can prior to. I am most concerned about financial aid and healthcare at this point. I have read from some of the other forums, but would love to talk to someone who has graduated or currently in the program.
