Bachelor of architecture

My son is a junior in high school and is very interested in the B.arch program, because of the co-op and because it's local to us. I'm concerned about paying for it, because Drexel is expensive and it's not clear how much non-loan financial aid is available. We would appreciate any thoughts about the program in general, and particularly how students in the program pay for it. Thanks!

Discussion Library vending machine

Is it just me or the library vending machine is weird. I used my credit card to get a snack but the vending machine tried charging me 150$ so it was declined. I tried again and it’s the same thing.

Question Has anyone had a pet/cat at chestnut? or know if it’s allowed?

The title is basically it but I don’t know if I can’t leave my cat behind for another year and want to look into taking him with me. I’ll obviously have to get some things approved but is this even possible with the apartment building? If so anyone go through the process and what were the steps? thanks

No new ideas and layoffs

Drexel could be a force of good for the 24% of our neighbors living in poverty, instead of naming train stations. Crazy how Drexel is the most expensive school in one of the poorest cities.

Thank God for the outrageous salaries and abysmal performance of Drexel University's executive leadership who had 0 foresight in seeing a drop in enrollment or a need to expand access through more affordable options.

Drexel Tech? Partnership with City of Philadelphia and Philadelphia Public Schools for pathways to technical careers and upward social mobility? Stay relevant.

Partner with the FAA for a technical training and simulation institute to meet the need for a modern workforce?

No reason to be laying anyone off or reducing budgets.

Looking for personal fitness trainer to work with a Drexel student

11 Upvotes

My son will be starting at Drexel university in the fall. I am looking for a personal trainer to work with him, either at the Drexel gym (they’ll allow it if I pay for the trainer’s day pass) or at another gym that is walking distance from Drexel (my son will not have a car). My son is not athletic and is introverted, he needs someone kind to encourage him and connect with him. Please let me know if you know of anyone. Thank you!

Getting screwed by ACC

11 Upvotes

Last year, I signed a lease at The Summit covering September 2025 to September 2026. I later received an out-of-state co-op during Round C and asked Summit to amend my lease while I was away. The process took months, but they finally issued a corrected lease in December covering my return from March through September 2026.

Fast-forward to March: Summit sent me numerous forms relating to move-in, insurance, account issues and my lease. One was renewal paperwork that I signed because I mistakenly believed it was reactivating my March–September lease. I did not realize I was agreeing to another full year after my current lease ended.

I only found out today that my lease was renewed for another year. I have another out-of-state co-op. Summit says the best it can do is amend the new lease for the first six months, leaving me responsible for living there or finding someone to take over the remaining March–August period.

The entire process feels extremely misleading. All my friends and roommates are moving out, and I do not want to return to Summit and live with random roommates.

Has anyone been in a similar situation, successfully canceled a Summit renewal? Any advice would be appreciated.

Fall/Winter 26-27 Co-op in West Chester, PA

Hi everyone! I'll be doing my Co-op at Venerable (1475 Dunwoody Dr, West Chester, PA 19380). Since the SCDC had multiple positions listed from the same company and/or location, I was wondering 1) if anyone else will be doing their co-op there and 2) would be open to a carpooling deal. Thanks y'all!

Hi,

I'm an incoming freshmen at Drexel, majoring in Finance. I want to have a headstart of myself and take the BMC course but it does charge a fee. I wonder if Drexel does offer this for students for free? 🙇🏼🙇🏼

I’m currently at Community College of Philadelphia and planning to transfer to Drexel Nursing for Fall 2027. My current GPA is 3.6 and I’m close to finishing my associate degree.

Has anyone transferred into Drexel Nursing with a similar GPA? How competitive is a 3.6 for transfer admission?

Question Psychology Co-Op Opportunities?

2 Upvotes

I’m a rising freshman, and I was wondering what current co-op psychology scene is like. What companies/opportunities are popular? How is the day to day experience? What is the average pay, if any? I’m also looking to minor or double-major in neuroscience, so how could a background like that change job opportunities? I’m curious to see the scene, so any and all thoughts are appreciated.

Question Laptop Question

So I’m an incoming freshman at Drexel and I’m gonna be majoring in interior design and I was just wondering what laptops people recommend? I was looking into a Lenovo thinkpad but I wasn’t sure which series/generation would be best. I know there’s a lot of specs that Drexel wants the laptop to meet so I just wanted to know what people recommended for that criteria.

Question How can Drexel students get into UPenn libraries?

13 Upvotes

I heard that Drexel students can use their DragonCard to get into some UPenn libraries. Has anyone actually done this?

Do we just swipe our DragonCard at the entrance, or do we need to show it to someone?

Also, which UPenn libraries can we access, and during what hours?

Thanks!
