New Dragon Block Party
Join us for Drexel University's New Dragon Block Party, where we will celebrate all our admitted students the way we often do in Philadelphia — block party-style!
Spring has sprung and we want you — our newest Dragons — to experience Drexel's campus life sooner, rather than later. Join us for the New Dragon Block Party, where you'll get the chance to connect with fellow new students as you explore campus and get a taste for the student life opportunities you have waiting for you here at Drexel. We hope you'll come celebrate with us!
The New Dragon Block Party will include:
- Food from local campus favorites
- Performing arts pop-up showcases, featuring Drexel's Pep Band and Fusion Band
- Drexel giveaways
- Tents and interactive stations all along Lancaster Walk
- Opportunities to meet some of our University community members, including representatives from our colleges and schools and fraternities and sororities
- And more!
If you can't make it to the event, be sure to check out the action on @DrexelAdmission's Instagram.
