Scholarship Post-Acceptance Letter Requirements

Scholarships and grants at Drexel University are possible partly due to the generosity of others — people or groups who have chosen to support students by providing financial aid.

Drexel asks recipients of these funds to submit a Post-Acceptance letter online as a way to thank donors for their generosity. Any student asked to complete the letter will see the requirement listed on DrexelOne.

How to Submit Your Post-Acceptance Letter

• Log-in to the Drexel University Online Scholarship System 
• Under My Applications tab, please confirm the General Application for 2023-2024 is complete
• Once the General Application is complete, you will have access to the Post-Acceptance Letter. Please complete the letter in its entirety. 

Letter Guidelines

• Write your letter in complete, grammatically correct sentences.
• Your letter should be between 150 words (half a page) and 300 words (full page) long.
• Begin by thanking the donor for their support.
• Explain why the scholarship is important to you and the impact it has on you.
• Share some information about your Drexel experience, focusing on the positive aspects. For example:
  • Why you came to Drexel.
  • Organizations you are involved with and how they have impacted you.
  • Your co-op experiences and what you have learned from them.
  • Any external organizations you are a part of.
  • What you love about Drexel.
• Close your letter, thanking the donor again.
• Review your letter for spelling and grammar.
