Hi, I have been accepted to Drexel. I interviewed on 9/21 and found out exactly one month later. I have not decided if I am attending yet, but best of luck to you.
I applied on 8/6 if I remember correctly and they got back to me on August 30th about an interview date. I would think that they should get back to you soon! 9/21 was their first interview date, so they haven't had very many yet.
If you do end up getting an interview, it is one-on-one with a faculty member and very laid back.
Is anyone flying in from out of state?
Thank you! Pretty generic questions: "Why Drexel? Why PT? How do you handle stress? Tell me about yourself/ talk about your shadowing experiences. What are some problems that you have noticed in the PT field? What makes a successful PT?" My interviewer was very chill, so it was more conversational rather than grilling me with questions. She kept asking me what questions I had. I wrote down questions that I had during the program overview and used those. However, some of the other applicants who I talked to after the interview had different questions than me. Best of luck !
They started interviewing on September 21st, which was when I interviewed. There were about 30 or so applicants there that day, and they have been having one interview session per week since that date.
I know, it's insane. Getting an interview is great, and I think you still have a good chance since not all of the applicants who were accepted into Drexel will take the offer.
That’s true. A lot of people seem to be thrown off by their quarterly system. Do you know how many spots have been filled?
I'm not sure.
Hi it’s the 7th! I accidentally wrote the 1st when I wrote the post but I meant the 7th
Thanks! Was there a place to put your stuff like coats, etc? I know it said that we don't need to bring anything, but I was thinking about bringing a notebook and was also wondering if I should leave me phone in my car or not.
There was not a place to put coats, so I would recommend not wearing one. I brought a small purse with a small notebook and kept my phone inside of it.
I flew in from Georgia for my interview!
Hi, I have been accepted to Drexel and am highly considering it as an option. Can you talk a little bit about the faculty/ what you like about the program compared to some other programs that you applied to?
I was recently accepted to Drexel. I have a few questions. How are you adapting to the quarter system, do you find it hard with so many finals and midterms? How is the area? was it easy to find a place to live and a good area to reside in? Also, have you been assigned your first clinical yet? How was that process for you?
Did you hear back recently about an interview?
I also have an interview this friday
Hi I'd love to ask you some questions! I'm curious how you are liking the program so far! And also how it's been living in Philly
(I'd be moving from California). Thanks so much!
