“I would advise anyone thinking about going toQuite BrightPhysics
I would advise anyone thinking about going to drexel not to come here. I feel as though I moved to philadelphia and inrolled in some sort of community college. Drexel really robs you of a true "college expirence". The city isn't really that great offering only clubs and bars which are fun but cost a lot of money. There is almost nothing to do on campus (which is pretty much non-exsistant) with the school providing almost no activities and the parties ethier full of frat guys, or just guys in general.I am leaving after this year, so don't make the same mistake I did. Don't come here

“I specialised in Interior Design, which was VERYBrightOther
I specialised in Interior Design, which was VERY GOOD! In fact, I am surprised that when people mention interior design, Drexel isn't mentioned. The program was strong and creative. However, I didn't like associating with only engineering types and didn't like Drexel's location, so I transferred to the University of Maryland. I certainly enjoyed the Univ. of Maryland more; however, I didn't get the same quality of education in the latter two years at Maryland as I did in the first two years at Drexel.
Now I am a well known and sucessful designer. However, I have to admit that most of the more useful skills that I learned were at Drexel.I should note that I went to Drexel 30 years ago, so things might have changed a great deal.

“The co-op program worksBrightCommunications
The co-op program works depending on your major. If you are an engineer, the co-op program will work great for you. Other majors, it is a bit harder.
