Torshi Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I'm curious if there is an in-state preference or no? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmdpac Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Not that I ever noticed. My class had people from all over the world never mind all over the country. Apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koppma Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 There is no in state preference. I am in my 3rd QRT at Drexel and I came all the way from California. Key is to apply early. They start interviews in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torshi Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 I applied - there's no secondary right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koppma Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 No secondary needed. Your essay in Caspa is all they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smccccc Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I am thinking about applying here this cycle. Any good things people heard about the school? Just trying to figure out if this is somewhere I would want to go, my app is verified I can submit whenever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torshi Posted June 15, 2014 Author Share Posted June 15, 2014 I'm guessing that invites aren't sent until mid July judging by previous threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koppma Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Mid to late July to early August is when they send interviews for the first two rounds that are in August. I got mine Aug 1 2012 for the second interview Aug 24 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koppma Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 If you do get the interview you do not need to rent a car. Just take the train that is 8 bucks from the airport to Suburban. The school will recommend a hotel that is close to the school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koppma Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Note that you need cash to pay on the train. It is about a 20 to 30 min train ride to the station. And is a 5 min walk to the school and 10 min walk to the hotel. Note the Hotel will be about 200 some. That is cheap for that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torshi Posted June 18, 2014 Author Share Posted June 18, 2014 $200 for a hotel?? Is there a nearby motel for $60? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmdpac Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 In Center City Philadelphia? You wouldn't want to stay there. You wouldn't wish a place that cheap on anyone. You may be able to find a place out by the airport for $60. But then you'll make up the difference in price in paying for a rental car, gas, parking and more when you could just spend the money, stay within walking distance of campus, and get to explore the area in which you're considering spending a significant amount of time without having to worry about the hassle of all of that. Use a travel site. You should be able to find a decent rate on a hotel in or around Center City that is within walkable distance of campus and where you'll need to be. Keep in mind you'll be in the middle of a major metropolitan area. Prices will be listed accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brgagnon Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Believe it or not my CASPA was verified on June 17th. I am shocked at how quickly they got back. I received my invite for the interview (on July 18th) on June 30th. Now I feel a tad rushed in preparing for my first interview ever! I only have two weeks! haha I really hope that this early news means I have a good chance of getting accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
