Drexel University Admissions

Drexel accepts nearly 80% of applicants, making it less selective than many private universities. This means most students with decent grades have a real shot at admission. Admitted students typically score between 1230-1430 on the SAT, with an average around 1330. The university looks for students who want hands-on experience alongside classroom learning. Drexel particularly values applicants interested in its signature co-op program, where students alternate between studying and working full-time jobs in their field. The school seeks ambitious students ready to jump into professional environments early in their college careers.
