2. With a 112-year history of excellence
Founded in 1891 by financier and philanthropist Anthony J. Drexel, the university has several distinctions, including the world's first school of nursing, the nation's largest private medical college, and one of the most successful co-op education degree programs (est. 1919). Also known as Philadelphia's technological university, Drexel was the first major university to require all students to have microcomputers (1983-4), having a fully wireless campus (2000), and a wireless web portal for students (2002).
3. You will earn the same, respected Drexel degree as on campus
Drexel online degree programs follow the same, high academic standards (same admission criteria, curricula, faculty, accreditation and exams) as Drexel degree programs on campus, leading to the same, quality degrees.
4. Taught by a distinguished faculty
More than 90% of Drexel University faculty members have PhDs. Many of them are distinguished authorities in their fields, widely honored in teaching and research, including several members of the National Academies of Science and Engineering, and leaders in scientific and professional societies.
5. With the highest accreditations
Drexel is regionally accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges & Secondary Schools (the same accreditation as Carnegie Mellon, Columbia, Cornell, New York University, Princeton, Yale and the University of Pennsylvania). It is also accredited by AACSB (Business), ABET (Engineering), ALA (Information Science) and NLNAC (Nursing).
6. And with several top-ranked degree programs
Drexel is ranked in the Top 10 by US News & World Report for Library and Information Science (No. 1 for Information Systems). Several Drexel engineering degree programs are ranked in the Top 50. Drexel online degree programs are ranked by the US News & World Report among the Best Online Graduate Programs in Engineering, Library Science and Business.
7. Convenient for working professionals
Studying online at Drexel you earn your degree while you earn a living. You can attend full-time or part-time, 100% online, without any need to commute to campus. You can take as many courses you want every term and complete courses at your own pace during each week. And, shorter than in most colleges, 10-week terms help you stay on track and complete your program.
8. Highly interactive degree programs
Instructional materials come in text, graphics, audio and video formats, and are available online 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You interact with your classmates and professors primarily via email, web discussion boards and web chat tools. And you are never alone! Our highly committed faculty and staff engage students in frequent communication and provide academic counseling and technical support.
9. You save money
To begin with, prices for some of our online degree programs are lower than the same degree programs taught on campus. In addition, there are no application fees or campus-related university fees. And of course, you will save living and commuting expenses associated with face-to-face degree programs. You can also transfer credit from prior college studies and reduce your total tuition this way. Last, but not least, you may be eligible for special rates offered to students working for partnering employers, to graduates of partnering community colleges, and to Drexel alumni and returning students.
To become eligible for our Employer Tuition Reduction, talk to your Human Resources Department about joining our network of partners.
To become eligible for our Community College Tuition Reduction, talk to the Transfer Office at your community college about joining our network of community colleges.
10. And you save time
You can transfer credits from prior education and complete your degree earlier. You may also be able to have credit recognized for work experience through CLEP exams). And, as you can take as many courses as you want per quarter (subject to academic requirements such as pre-requisites), you may graduate even sooner!
