zoe499 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Hello everyone. I have not received an invite for a interview, but I also have not received a rejection letter. I am still hopeful. Has anyone received a rejection or think the school is still emailing Invitations to interview??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khartma1 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Hey zoe499! I am in the same boat as you. I believe interviews typically go until February so I'm sure more people will be getting invitations eventually. Stay optimistic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glorious_Ignoramus Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Submitted a bit late, just got my confirmation email from Drexel...here's to hoping there are still some seats open for us later applicants! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rmm1616 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 I would not lose hope so quickly! I know they have many different interview sessions, each with 20-25 candidates, so there should still be many opportunities for interview invites. Hoping to get one myself. Good luck to everyone!

WWUViking1983 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Hi Everyone! I am a first year student at Drexel (start in a few months!!). I just wanted to say good luck to everyone interviewing, and to answer a few questions that have been posted here. 1) Drexel continues to interview throughout the fall and into the spring of next year, so if you haven't head back from them yet, don't worry!! 2) The interview at Drexel is VERY relaxed. So for everyone interviewing next month, just take a deep breath, and be yourself. They really want to see the real you, so don't worry about finding the "right answer" to either the writing sample or the interview. Just give them YOUR answer. If I can be of any help to you all, let me know! -Zach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxPower Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 "Students must not receive a grade lower than a "B-" in any single prerequisite course" Does this mean if a student received a C in Bio 101, their application will be not reviewed? Even if they have received better grades in advance bio courses? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiggySRNA Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 If it's a pre-req yes, the application will not be reviewed. If it isn't a pre-req, you should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they have received better grades in advance bio courses? Thanks MaxPower, Contact the department via email or phone, and ask them directly. However, I assume that your interpretation would be correct. You also have the option of retaking that particular class for a better grade. If you have advanced bio under your belt, an A should not be difficult. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sterling123 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Max Power, I had a similar question as you. They informed me that an upper level bio course would fulfill the requirement if it's at least a b- if it's something like cell bio, developmental bio, molecular bio..ect.

MaxPower Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Thanks for the reply, umbPA, WWUViking1983, and Sterling123. I'm awaiting a reply from the program. Sterling123, I have taken those courses and have received either an A- or A in them, so I appreciate your positive response. I just think it's better to know before we apply for a program if our application will ever reach the admissions committee or it will be automatically rejected in the screening process. Good luck!
