Drexel - Worth the investment.
Tips: It was a smooth transition, no big culture shift except for rules and regulations. People are very friendly and welcoming. I didn't get any scholarships but there are definitely some options if you want one. I am very happy with the choice I made. I am enjoying it here.
Likes (Student Life): Good facilities, gym, sports and many others. You feel you have everything to enjoy your college life, there are many events organized by clubs here, join a club and you will be even more involved, there is always one or the other event happening every day, so you can never miss one.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Given the current situation, I am not sure the possibility of getting a permanent settlement here, but given a chance too, I am not very curious or excited about it. I plan to move back to India and live with my family, I am here for educational purposes.

Amazing co-op programme.
Tips: One of the biggest reasons for my coming here was the coop programme which has not disappointed. You will truly learn more than you might expect and it will be worthwhile especially when it comes to engineering and computer Science. You get paid for the industry work and research and if you manage to survive the intensity, you'll get a meaningful experience.

Indian societies are quite happening on campus.
Tips: Almost all of Drexel's business programs are conducted with a good blend of data tools, projects and theory. Transitioning was a little challenging but mentor groups and the orientation conducted were helpful and even though part time jobs aren't available much, you can still earn via the co op programs. Campus life is a nice break from all the work and the Indian societies are quite happening.

The campus is very well connected with the city.
Tips: Good opportunity to study here as it has Co-Op System. You won't feel that much of the cultural shift I believe. I got a Dean's Fellowship of around 16000 for full course. It was based on my student profile. So far I am very satisfied with whatever I got.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus is very well connected with the city as it is close to Downtown. Drexel Shuttle (Bus) has Three Routes connection to almost every necessary places in the campus. The public transport network is also very easy to use. Lots of cheap options available.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time jobs are not available as such. And the ones that are available have so many applicants that the chances of you getting the job are almost negligible. Part-time work is definitely manageable, but for that you should be fortunate enough to get one.

Good campus with friendly people.
Tips: Drexel as a university has a mix of academic rigour and a more practical experience which ultimately benefits in the workplace scenario. By studying here, I have learnt the need to stay organised and manage my time well as even a slight misbalance can lead to a lot of stress. There are lots of Indian food options available but it might be costly to eat out most of the days so cooking can be the best alternative. The faculty is very helpful, friendly and supportive and you can reach out to them in case of any problem. Everything else has been good so far.

Learning a lot with supportive and understanding faculty.
Tips: Studying at Drexel is truly very unique experience among the usual college experience in the United States. But the co-op programme is something you should really look into as this will make you realise the true potential of networking in an experiential learning setting and how far it can go. There are lots of job opportunities so start looking for them during your last semester. Do participate in clubs, seminars, activities and events. Overall, I had a good experience.
