| Quite Bright | I am just responding to the previous poster. I guarantee that anyone who rated Drew's education an F did NOT go to Drew! The best part of Drew is the high quality of its education. Drew has an excellent reputation in the east but may have a noteriety issue around the rest of the country. Drew students are generally pleased with their university. My freshman year roommate started at Drew, transferred to UPenn because it was a more known school, and then came back to Drew because the overall quality of the education was better at Drew. I would not hesitate to attend Drew if I had to do the school selection process again. | Faculty Accessibility: A+, Useful Schoolwork: A- |  | | |

| Quite Bright | | It was a great choice for those 4 years of my life. However, it didn't prepare me for the real world. I had so much trouble finding a job after college. No one knew the name and if they did, they had very low opinions of it. If you care about your future do not go here. | | Nov 06 2008 | 4th Year Female --

Most of the faculty are not passionate about what they do. Yet, there are a handful, and they are wonderful. But don't expect a "Dead Poet's Society" or Harvard-level of inspiration. Most of them punch-out as soon as they can.
The staff is horrible. The internship office is a joke (the director actually lied to another professor about something which I have e-mail evidence for), as is the registrar. The finanical aid office messed up my aid (which were personal loans that I took out, but they held-up or cancelled) almost every semester.
For the money you pay, you'll feel like you're at the DMV. The staff are like inept children - you will need to follow-up a million times about everything or they'll forget. Write & save e-mails! Even if you chat about something in person - send a follow-up e-mail so you have evidence! Again, you or your parents will have to be diligent for all the money you pay. | Campus Aesthetics: A-, Innovation: F |  | | |
