Indian students don't need to submit a separate scholarship application for merit-based scholarships at Drexel Uni. They are automatically considered for the same as per their admission application.

However, need-based or additional financial aids do require a separate application. The last date to apply for such financial aid varies.

Drexel Uni breaks academic calendar is divided into four different 10-week quarters  (Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer). At the end of each quarter, students sit for a week of exams, followed by a short break between terms. Classes worth 12-20 credits take place year-round.

As terms are only 10 weeks long, studies and exams take place at a much faster pace than the semester-based system. This also allows students to include co-op work terms during their studies.

The below table gives a sample calendar of a student at Drexel Uni:
