Resources for Students
The Dornsife School of Public Health is dedicated to educating and training our students as future public health leaders who are ready to face challenges with resourcefulness and perseverance.
A list of services and resources for students is available on our student intranet, Dornsife Dash.
Drexel University continues to follow guidelines released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Pennsylvania Department of Public Health and Philadelphia Department of Public Health.
Learn more about getting a vaccination or booster at Drexel.
If you are feeling sick or you just received a positive COVID test result, the Drexel Student Health Center is here for you. Call 215.220.4700 for guidance.
Details on the 2022-23 academic year, including university information on COVID-19 vaccinations, masking, and FAQs for students, can be found on Drexel's Coronavirus Website.

Drexel Health Tracker
The Drexel Health Checker is a mobile-based app that allows Drexel community members to confidentially report their symptoms, report or schedule a COVID-19 test, record their vaccination status, and access key resources to help them stay healthy. Learn more on Drexel's Coronavirus Website.
Resources for Prospective Students
We are excited to welcome you to our community of faculty, staff and students who are engaged and are rising to meet public health challenges here in Philadelphia, in the nation, and globally.
There are opportunities for both on-campus and virtual information sessions and tours. Please attend one of our Visit Opportunities, Grad School Fairs or contact our team to learn more.
We hope to have the opportunity to meet you at one of our events.
Dornsife Experts on Coronavirus
Dornsife faculty members frequently offer expert commentary and analysis on the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in local, national, and international media outlets.
Dornsife faculty also continue to research COVID-related health outcomes. For example, the school's Urban Health Collaborative has partnered with the Big Cities Health Coalition to release the “COVID-19 Health Inequities in Cities Dashboard," which visualizes testing, incidence, hospitalizations, and mortality and examines inequities across 30 cities.
Learn more about how Dornsife faculty, staff, and students worked to understand the impact of COVID-19 in the Dornsife SPH magazine article "All Hands on Deck" on issuu.com.
News media professionals should contact Greg Richter, News Manager, at 215.895.2614 or gdr33@drexel.edu, to schedule an interview with a Dornsife faculty expert.
