TTIS; where does Drexel University rank in the field of Colleges? Number One son applied there without telling us.

He's been accepted with a 1/3 tuition scholarship. That still means we need to come up with around 20 or 30K a year if he wants to go there. He's mulling over the possibilities, and I have *no* idea what to tell him.

My brother went there 20 years ago - it was a wee bit cheaper then - Harry Lime Feb 12, 11:50
Is 20/30k for one years tuition? -- nm - Loyola Feb 12, 11:45 12

    - The base tuition is probably in the 36k range. It's not going to cost much less overall. -- nm - pmb Feb 12, 12:01 1
      - Yeah, meals is where the dorms are a good thing. - Spawn Feb 12, 12:04
    - some campuses have rules against that, or opt-out penalties, to guarantee the dorms fill. -- nm - TFox Feb 12, 11:55 3
      - a tip from someone who works at a college: there is ALWAYS a way out of the dorms, regardless...nm - x Feb 12, 11:58 1
