The Drexel Promise

We know how hard you’ve been working to complete your associate degree and want to let you know that you may be eligible for a great opportunity: The Drexel Promise. Through The Drexel Promise, we proudly offer a 50% tuition scholarship to all community college students who have earned their associate degree as they complete their bachelor’s as a Drexel Dragon. By providing much-needed support, The Drexel Promise works to reduce financial barriers and resulting inequities for community college students.

Home to a vibrant and active transfer community, we are a private university dedicated to serving a public mission and helping more community college students discover an affordable pathway to a private education. Through The Drexel Promise, it is our intention to enable more aspiring learners like you to achieve the dream of upward educational mobility and find new ways to maximize their potential as thinkers, innovators, and achievers.

How to Apply

Applicants to a full-time, on-campus program should indicate on their application that they have earned or will earn an associate degree from an accredited community college before starting their program at Drexel. No additional forms or applications are required; however, the Office of Undergraduate Admissions will need to verify applicant eligibility before the scholarship can be finalized.

All Promise eligible applicants must meet Drexel's criteria for admission and receive an offer of admission from the University in order to receive the scholarship. Students who have already earned a bachelor's or professional degree are ineligible.
