Reasons to attend and to not attend Drexel University
To Attend
- “The co-op program sets itself apart from other schools. If you do three co-ops over the five years, you graduate with [a lot] of experience.”
- “I think being in a city is pretty cool. I like that you can go to Center City. You’re not isolated, you can always travel.”
- “Philadelphia is amazing and there are many opportunities for things to do on and around campus. You will never get bored and there is always something to do.”
- “Public transportation connects you to most major train stations, so you can travel the East Coast. Also, the Philly airport is a half-hour away.”
To Not Attend
- “You have to take academics seriously because it is very fast-paced and you have to be on top of your stuff, otherwise it can be overwhelming.”
- “The relative danger of living in a city. You do get heckled a little and there are always homeless people outside of 7-11 near campus.”
- “There is zero school spirit. There is no football team and everyone here is either in sweats or in business suits.”
- “It’s a different experience than what people think of when they think of college. It’s not the classic college experience.”
