Don't Have a Car

Because Drexel is right in the heart of Philadelphia, there isn't much space for parking, and it's expensive. If you're lucky you can find a spot on the side of a street where there isn't a limit to how long you can stay there, but trying that can result in hefty parking tickets if you're not careful.

Freshman Dorms

My dorm experience was NOT good. The price was about $1000/month to SHARE a room. Shared bathrooms were on each floor. The bathrooms were filthy and needed renovations. The ceilings leaked, the showers and sinks were often clogged. The shared kitchen was also a mess. Overall, it was way over-priced for what we got. And it wasn't an option- freshmen have to live in the dorms.
