Before you pack your bags for Drexel ... join us at a New Student Send-off in your hometown!

The Drexel University Alumni Association would like to welcome Drexel's incoming students and their families to the Drexel community with New Student Send-off Receptions this summer!

Come out to meet and get to know other new Drexel students and families from your area, as well as local Drexel alumni. Drexel staff members will also be on-hand to answer any last-minute questions you may have.

Why Students Love Drexel
We asked current Drexel students about the reasons you'll love Drexel. Check-out the video below and find out what they said!

Advice from Alumni
Drexel alumni were asked the question, "What advice would you give an incoming Drexel student?" We've compiled the responses and provided them for current Drexel students. More
