Major: Business - Management and Administration (This Major's Salary over time)
I've been here a couple of months and everytime I've wanted help or advice, my professors are just a phone call away. The people are extremely friendly too! But I think it is well known mostly for Actuarial Science and Pharmacy.I'm an Actuarial Science major. I don't know about other majors.The classes haven't been challenging at all so far, but there are a lot of fun things to do on campus and I'm sure as I go further, they will become more challenging. My largest classes so far are a core business class and an area of Inquiry class (Psychology). They both have 60 students. My current professors and some others in the Business school already know me by name.What I like best about Drake is that there are no TAs and the professors answer all my questions and grade my tests.I'm really happy here and know I made the right choice.But, Drake isn't for everyone. It's a pretty laid back and small campus. If you like that, it's for you.I turned down a tuition waiver at UW Madison to come here and haven't regretted at all!
