Hi! I was was just accepted to the fall 2015 but was thinking about deferring until spring 2016 but I have a few questions! How ow does financial aid work since it's technically during 2 school years? Do you apply for fafsa and scholarships twice??

I was accepted about 2 weeks ago but still haven't received it. I was planning on calling later this week if I still haven't heard! Where is everyone planning on living ( really far in advanced I know). I was thinking maybe a few ace people can keep a eye out for something close to school! It would be nice to live with people in the program

Thank you so much for posting this!! Did they say if people ever are able to hold a part time job? Also so did they say anything about financing?

my GPA was a overall 3.1 and a 3.5 science GPA

I have never been to philly/dont know anyone there (I'm from Oregon) so if you have any ideas of places to live that would be great!

I had them all done but am finishing up my BS in nutrition at Oregon State University

just got my acceptance!!! super excites but nervous since I dont know anyone in the philly area

I feel like if they put you on hold they're impressed and just want to see your final grades to confirm! For those who are now on hold when did you submit? I'm hoping I hear this week!

Hi guys! i was also planning on applying for the absn but got pretty intimidated by the info session. I felt like they were talking people out of applying if they didn't have a stellar gpa. I think they said the average accepted was a 3.9 first round last year??? I'm proud of my GPA but it's not that high....I've been debating even applying since then and have been focusing on applying to out of state programs. What others are you guys applying to?

Turned in the24th but still no word

I want to call and ask if we will find out soon just so plane tickets don't get too expensive...but I also don't want to bother them.

Congrats that's so exciting!!! I applied on the 20th I belive but no word yet!

Not yet! I think I read somewhere we'd hear back 6 weeks after the deadline?

That's a awesome GPA so I really don't think you should be worried. Drexel didn't require a resume so I doubt that your health care experience will be a problem! I'm so anxious to hear back so I'm hoping its sooner rather then later. I'm from Oregon but I need a change of scenery so I'm applying to drexel, George Washington, MCPHS and quinnipac. I'm not positive which my first choice is since they're all good programs and close to the same price so it will probably depend on which ones get back to me soonest but since drexel is only 11 months it's a big plus! Ya the price is defiantly very high. I'm hoping to get a scholarship but will probably need to take out a loan. It will be worth it in the end though!

H guys! congrats that's awesome! What gpa did everyone have?

What is the gpa of those accepted?

That's great!! The only thing I am worried about is my gpa

What cummalitive gpa and prerequisite gpa of those accepted have?

thats great! I love that you find out so early if you were accepted to this school or not-it makes planning so much easier! Doesn't GW have a accelerated program (GW is george washington correct)? Does anyone know where students typically live in this area?

Sorry cumulative gpa and science gpa

Hi everyone! I am also from Portland Oregon and am finishing my B.S. in Dietetics from OSU this upcoming spring. I am really interested in moving to the DC area to mix things up a bit. Currently my cGPA is a 3.1 and my sGPA is 3.4....is this competitive with students who have been accepted in the past! Also to answer the question above the app doesn't open until Oct.15 which is when the new nCAS is released

Hi all! I just submitted my application for Drexels ACE fall 2015 program and was curious if anyone else has applied or heard back from admissions? I have a 3.1 cGPA and around a 3.4 sGPA, is this considered competitive with past applicants? Also, how is everyone planing on paying for this-I understand it's pretty pricey and aid packages aren't close to covering it... Best of luck!
