I am a current Drexel ACE student, and I am still in my second week...so...still trying to figure some things out.

The application process is actually the simplest I have ever done. Go to the Drexel website, and apply online. As of January 2008, recommendations were not required, self statement was not required. I personally did not send any. There was no interview, definately need to send college transcripts for your degree and any other ones that fulfill the pre-reqs. But one thing they asked me and wasn't listed on the pages was an official high school transcript, I would recommend you prepare for that as someone else confirmed for me that she needed it to.

As for GPA, Drexel's requirement is actually posted, you need a 3.0 in your previous baccalaureate degree (which I will admit I didn't have), OR a 3.0 in your last 60 hours of coursework completed.

Check out this website, it should give you some good information about admission requirements. If you go down the right side, there are a lot of information that are useful.
