I have a 2.6 GPA at a competitive prep school all regular classes but a 1800/2400 on my SAT's. Lots of volunteer work, my sister went there, great essay, showed interest by interviews and calling, I'm captain of 2 sports at my high school, and I've worked at my dad's medical practice doing insurance billing for the past 2 years for a few hours a day after school.

Also, if you feel like your borderline, apply to the school like the day before the deadline. I feel like early on if your borderline that they judge too quickly, but once they realize how many students aren't going to attend Drexel that were accepted, they loosen up a bit.

Good luck and come here. don't be socially awkward and you'll be fine.

Getting in was easy, nothing extravagant. Just went in with a letter of recommendation and interviewed briefly.

I had an interview with an admissions counselor and *wonderful* advisor Brandon. Overall, be prepared with your resume and transcripts so they can assess your transfer credits and place you in the right program for your needs.

Get good grades. The interview is important to see that you are a well rounded human.
