Drexel University (2022-2023)

[neat wind]

No one can bruuuuuh

[trail oriole]

got in with 36k

jesus christ it costs an arm and a lung

[lavish oasis]

lol i got in w 40k aid and honors but it’s still so costly

did they give everyone the same aid 😭

can co-ops even cover it

[neat wind]

Probably not ngl

[daring vine]

Got in with 18k aid
Didn't even payed the app fee

And didn't even submitted the css

[candid summit]

drexel is for the rich 💔

[daring vine]

Yeah

[fierce sequoia]

if i don’t get into an ivy i’m gonna see if i can apply to the honors college late & get the arts scholarships they have 😭 bc i’m seriously considering that accelerated jd

[lavish oasis]

oh are there honors college scholarships ?

[fierce sequoia]

i don’t think so but i wanna be in the honors college

i rly didn’t consider drexel that much when i applied so i didn’t do it

but now i’m def thinking abt it

[lavish oasis]

makes sense

lmao i cant believe they still accepted me after i addressed all my drexel mails as “to northwestern”

[hazy lichen]

LMFAOOO

they get it

[fierce sequoia]

LMFAO

[raven sedge]

💀

[solar ice]

i got into a college without turning in a letter of rec that was required 😭😭 i don’t think they care LOL

[lavish oasis]

LOL it just feels like they know i won’t go there 💀

[white roost]

Their acceptance rate is so high bc their yield is so low

So yeah lmfoa

[lavish gull]

how can you see your aid?

or how much scholarship u got

[daring vine]

On scholarship tab iirc

[daring vine]

Here

[lavish gull]

alr

[lavish oasis]

can you negotiate aid 😭😭

[brave oar]

did anyone apply to the bs/md program

[pine haven]

yo i got in

lol i randomly applied 2 weeks after deadline cuz i was bored

havent even set up portal yet

wtf

i wont be going cuz i didnt submit css and i wont be able to afford it otherwise but it feels good to have some acceptances ngl

[candid summit]

u can but its a dumb process https://drexel.edu/drexelcentral/finaid/prospective-students/appeals/

[lavish oasis]

thanks omg

bruh… what is this

[candid summit]

hence why im not going 😔 which sucks bc i really like drexel........ accepted into honors n accelerated masters too......

[lavish oasis]

same 😭😭 i would so gladly go to drexel but this is so much

my moms leaving her job

next year

which is the year i join any college

i don’t retroactively have documents of the job loss… what do i even do

[candid summit]

omg im in a similar situation bc like my mom is unemployed (she quit last year). but she has no evidence of her quitting or anything. her current job is just reselling which isnt really a job u get paystubs for, and to top it all off her n my dad are separated but not legally so it doesnt mean anything 🙃

its okay though i've already mourned drexel LOL

[lavish oasis]

man😭 where do u think u might go then?

[candid summit]

of the schools that i've heard back from so far whitman has given me the best aid, w/ me only having to pay 10k yearly (which. is still Technically a lot but its wayyyy better than most). it's a small LAC in the middle of nowhere tho so thats the only reason it's a little iffy but still my best option financially

out of state too!

[lavish oasis]

OH i’ve heard abt whitman, sounds cool ngl. are you waiting on any decisions?

i’m banking on duke kunshan to take me so i don’t get stuck in my home country 🙏

[candid summit]

ooo i believe you'll get in!! im waiting on. Many. the list currently goes: northwestern, carleton (which is today!), wesleyan, vassar, reed, brown, clark, and williams (which i applied for on a complete whim i probably wouldnt go if i was accepted lol)

[white roost]

Drexel another L

Accepted w not enough aid

[white roost]

got rejected from honors college rip

[silent sphinx]

same 😦

[candid granite]

Got in wit presidents scholarship woo

But gotta pay 30/40k to attend either way

[vivid edge]

Apparently students can make around 20k with the co ops each year

Still won't cover everything for me but atleast that's an option 🫠

[white roost]

fuck drexel

[white roost]

Oh fr?

That’s kinda a lot

[radiant shuttle]

Inb4 taxes and housing.

[white roost]

Oh okay 😭

[fringe dagger]

Is it worth it to pay 33k a year for drexel?

with co op or not

I would do 5 year option

[cloud idol]

P good

I have heard you can p good with coop

[untold inlet]

Definitely

You can change the coop period

[vivid edge]

That's nice

Good to have the option

[round radish]

[cloud idol]

20k

[hollow laurel]

Did anyone here manage to negotiate aid?
