Drew can best be described as a MickeyQuite Bright
Drew can best be described as a Mickey Mouse college. Serious learning does not happen here. Don't be stupid and waste your money going here. This school was founded by a railroad tycoon who was a thief in the 1800s. The school today does the same thing to their students by robbing them of money for a mediocre quality education. Look elsewhere and save your money. This school isn't worth it. Trust me. Drew like many other small insignificant colleges will one day go out of business. There is no place for a school like drew in today's economy. Please save your money for a school that actually gives you an education. Don't. Go here. You've been warned!

Question
Yes, I agree with the previous post.
Yes, I agree with the previous post. Drew is a fantastic liberal arts college. The people complaining in the previous posts are an exceptional few who probably did not get the "typical" college experience that they were looking for. This is because Drew is not your "typical" college. It is above that. Drew does not offer Greek life and the massive and imposing structures of bigger colleges, this is true. But the education is excellent and the campus itself is a natural wonder. Drew excels in many areas which most college do not. It provides an intimate learning environment which contributes to intellectual growth and curiosity. My time at Drew was very well spent and I am currently pursuing a master's degree at an ivy league university. I can say that Drew is worth the money if you can go here and it will provide you with an exceptional foundation of skills for life. Any complaints which people post here about the school are not accurate. Yes, Drew, did have a recent president who maintained a vision for the school that was not held by the majority of students and faculty. And yes, this president is no longer at Drew for the very reason that he was not fit to lead the university. I guarantee you that Drew cares about its students, its reputation and its quality. Drew had a bad experience with one individual who tried imposing his personal naive vision upon the university. This man however, is gone and a new president has assumed leadership in the meantime. I loved Drew and I did exceptionally well here. I learned a ton and I do not regret my decision at all.
