Do not go to Drexel.Quite BrightEngineering Department
Do not go to Drexel. Do not be fooled by the 'co-op' program. They even make you pay tuition while you are on co-op. Go to another school and get summer co-op or just skip a semester of school to work a job, you will be better off in the long run. Philadelphia has a great social life and you will fall in love with the city. Drexel social life kinda sucks. I played sports for 4 years at the school and the school was so kind to hold my diploma until I paid them for a shirt that was missing. It took them until 2 months after I graduated to let me know about it. While there are a lot of great people there and I met the love of my life. I don't think that it's worth it in anyway. If you aren't some type of science or engineering PLEASE DO NOT GO HERE AT ALL. Go to a real school, with a real campus, with real faculty that actually care about the students.

Question
Drexel's Co-op program allows you to get yourBiology
Drexel's Co-op program allows you to get your foot in the door while you're still in school? That way the people at the company can see what you can do, and if you perform well, you will be at the top of the hiring list (you will also end up with a higher starting salary Drexel ended up getting hired by top companies and some of them went on to top graduate and professional schools like MIT and Harvard Medical School. So if you want to get into some of the world's leading companies, Drexel should be high on your list.
