- I Like the environment around the campus, one most thing I enjoyed was quarter system, Diversity of Drexel, Drexel Univeristy provide alot of scholarships program which students can apply and get one of them, Different association which new students can participate and meet their co-students and make network.
- I was the part of one of their organization (IGSA).
Dislikes
- I will not say that i dislike anything about Drexel, because I enjoyed my 2 years of journey their and i cherish every moment. One I felt was selecting people in any organization should handle by advisor of the association not the students. That way you can create good team to organize events.
- Once I got an offer from Drexel, I started searching for off-campus accommodation, getting into whatsapp groups, telegram and more. From there, I found one accommodation that was near campus. Walking a distance to my department building, grocery stores nearby. Very flexible and relaxing. However, finding a safe and affordable place was challenging. So I would recommend starting to find accommodation as soon as possible and connecting with your co-students and starting to make a network.

- The course curriculum is interesting.
- Course has right blend of theory and practical stuff.
- The professors are highly talented and helpful.
Dislikes
- Campus life is not that great, saince the university is scattered in the city.
- The course during the initial quarters is not that great, as it focuses more on the history of games and digital media.
- At times, the course felt it had unnecessary filler subjects.
- People find houses from Zillow.com, Apartments.com. There are other reality groups that offer affordable housing options to students.
- There are also WhatsApp groups for Drexel Indian students who help in finding accommodation.
- Look fast; if you drag the time, houses fill up pretty quickly, and you will be left with an expensive one.

- I like the CO-OP opportunity at Drexel University. It will give me industrial experience along with academics.
Dislikes
- I dislike the quarter pattern in my university. It makes my studies hectic. I literally have exams every month!
I chose this university for the CO-OP opportunity, speciality in the Pharmaceutical industry. The university helped me to develop my resume, LinkedIn profile, etc.
Likes
- The campus is located in the city so you get to experience true city life while also getting a campus.
- Lot of accommodation options and also really affordable as compared to other cities.
- Lot of food options, especially international food.
Dislikes
- The academics could be better.
- It lacks community because we don't have a lot of focus on sports, so the college doesn't get a chance to come together and celebrate Drexel.
I picked this over any other college because of its city-integrated campus. It also had business analytics as an option for a STEM degree, even though it was a co-major, so only 24 extra credits. Also liked their co-op system where you get to intern full-time with big companies, almost promising a return offer in the future.

- Campus is pretty diverse and students are always onto something haha
- Faculty is helpful and good at what they do. Teaching is v important and I found it to be top tier
- Co-op program is easily the BEST in the country. I highly recommend opting for the 5 year 3 coop option
Dislikes
- I wish there were more activities outside of regular university co curriculars. Would have loved to explore more
- More social events where I could network more. Maybe I needed to sign up for more so I guess more marketing of those events?
- Post Graduation resources are a little scarce. Wish I could stay in contact more
I had taken the SATs and applied for Drexel University alongside 4 other universities (Texas A&M, NYU, Purdue, and Penn State). I got in all the above listed and got deferred in NYU. The application process specifically for Drexel was pretty straightforward. I had to submit my SAT score, write 2 essays, and fill out the application form, and financial aid form. I had applied early decision.
Course Curriculum, Alumni Network. LeBow in particular has a great alumni network and the careers team here is exceptionally nice and helpful.
They're a private school, specializing in co-ops, and are among the best in the country with connections to Fortune 500 companies. Students are able to gain 2 years of experience even before graduation.
I chose Drexel for the co-op program and also because I planned to transfer before I started and my counselor told me a private school would be easier to transfer from.
