Have you ever took the senior exemption where u take less than 12 credits in senior year and become part-time student while still receive some financial aids from grants?

If so, how much did u took and how much it costed you?

I'm an incoming freshman at Drexel in the LeBow College of Business majoring in MIS, and I'm in the 5-year, 3 co-op program.

I was recently assigned my first co-op cycle, but there was some confusion because I was originally notified of the wrong cycle. My advisor clarified that my first co-op will actually be Fall/ Winter (August 2027-January 2028).

Since Drexel is moving to the new semester system with three academic terms, I'm trying to understand how each cycle affects your overall schedule, especially with summer classes. I originally thought one cycle might avoid summer classes, but after looking more closely at the new academic calendar, it seems like both cycles still involve summer coursework at some point.

For anyone who has been through either the Fall/Winter or Spring/Summer co-op cycle, what did you like or dislike about it? Did one cycle make things easier with recruiting, study abroad, classes, or internships? Are there any advantages or disadvantages I should consider as an MIS major?

My advisor mentioned there is a co-op cycle swap process in the fall. Has anyone actually gone through that process and successfully switched cycles? How difficult was it?

I'd really appreciate any advice from current students or alumni. Thank you!

Hewo,

Does anyone know where we could look for student worker opportunities during summer term, because it’s the term of transition where the work study for last year ended but new one haven’t come out.

I’m also curious if we could still be doing student worker on campus during the six month full time coop period.

Thanks!

Anything will help please drop some scholarship information below

It might take me longer than the usual 2 years for the program I am considering, but I would still want to remain on the Drexel health insurance. Does anyone know if this is possible?

Any affordable off campus housing you guys recommend? I’m a nursing major so I need to be near the health science building

hi all! what is the point of nfs 101? do we just cook in that class?

With so many students and visitors walking around campus every day, I've wondered what happens if someone is seriously injured because a property owner failed to fix an obvious hazard.

I recently came across information from Philly Slip and Fall Guys about premises liability in Pennsylvania, and it made me curious how these situations are handled when they happen near universities.

Has anyone around Drexel experienced something like this or known someone who has?

Hi Dragons,

Has anyone interviewed with Penn Medicine, Scout Robotics, or Wills Eye Hospital through Drexel Co-op?

I have upcoming interviews and would love to hear about your experience, especially the interview format and questions.

Thanks!

Hey guys, how the heck do yall use ur alumni cards? I got mine through email and it said we can print it out. But how do yall get on campus and stuff? like getting into buildings.

I wont be around campus much anymore and I would like to know whenever I'm back.

Hi everyone,

I have an interview coming up for a System Administrator Co-op position at Berkely Technology Services, and I was wondering if anyone here has interviewed with them before or knows what the interview process is like.

I'd really appreciate any insights on:

What kind of technical questions they might ask

Any behavioral or situational questions to expect

Topics I should review beforehand

Any tips or advice for doing well in the interview

Thank you!

Hi everyone! I have a self-recorded video interview coming up for the Comcast Information Systems Co-op, and I was wondering if anyone has gone through it before. Does anyone know what kind of questions they ask? Are they similar to the Round A questions, or are they completely different? If you've taken it already, I'd really appreciate it if you could share any questions or advice. Thanks in advance!

I am currently looking into changing my major from CS to either Data Science or Econ and Data Science. How do you manage the co-op situation when you change after the first year? If you've made a similar switch, how did it affect your co-op timeline? Were you still able to stay on track for co-op, or did changing majors delay anything?

Any advice or things you wish you had known beforehand would be appreciated.

Hi! Returning student, but I forgot how it worked last year, and now I'm moving from dorm to suite. I don't have any roommates planned, so how exactly do I do it? Do I just select an empty room, select an empty suite, or do I just slot myself in wherever I can fit?

Yo does anyone have any pictures of the x08 suite in race hall? (Not x17 or x14) I've genuinely scoured the Internet and I only have the layout and nothing else. Or is it just not real

HI, I'm an incoming freshman (using someone else's account, I don't have my own). I have a few questions about what I will need for my dorm. I will be in Kelly Hall.

What are the mattresses like (firm/soft)? Should I get a mattress topper or mattress protector?

Is it easy to adjust the temperature in the room? Would a fan be useful?

Do most people rent the fridge/microwave, or buy their own?

Can I have a toaster oven in my room? What about other cooking gadgets like a sandwich maker or kettle?

Is there cooking equipment (pots/pans/knives, etc.) in the kitchens, or do you need to bring your own if you want to cook anything?

Can I ship bigger items to the dorm before move-in day?

hi. the fall quarter is starting somewhat soon, and welcome week starting right before. I am beginning to collect a list of everything I need to bring. If anyone has a list of stuff they brought with them for their first year, or recommendations of things that you wouldn't typically think of please let me know. feel free to reply on this post so others can check out the list, or message me if you'd rather do that. i dont want to overpack but i definetly want to be prepared, im from the hershey area so im used to the pa weather. and i will be in kelly hall if that helps at all, i planned on renting the microfridge unit with my roommate.

thank you to whoever helps me out and if anyone wants to be friends send me a message

Hi everyone! I'm a Drexel student working on a class project about off-campus housing experiences. I'm curious about your own experience.

How did you decide whether a landlord was trustworthy?

What was the hardest part of finding off-campus housing?

Looking back, what do you wish you had known before signing your lease?

Thank you!

Im a sophomore that just accepted a co-op located in the Navy Yard and I’m looking for other students who will be commuting there with a car. I’m more than happy to contribute financially towards gas and parking so if you’re someone who’s working in the navy yard or in that general area please reach out!

For the next year, the united healthcare plan costs more, has higher deductible and is only for 11 months :(

i just bought a pc little bit ago and was wondering if it’s reasonable to bring with me. i’m gonna be in a hybrid and planned on bringing it and using it for gaming and school.
am i crazy for wanting to do that or is it pretty common.
thanks
