As part of our 2021 Veterans and Military Family Appreciation events at Drexel University, American flags will be placed on the lawn beside Perelman Plaza and Gerri LeBow Hall to recognize veterans who are currently enrolled at Drexel University.

Preparing for tests can be complicated- you have to balance your studying with other course work, while making sure that your approach is effective. If you want to learn more about how to prepare well for exams, please join the Peer Academic Coaches from the Center for Learning and Academic Success Services for a workshop designed to help! We will provide some strategies for test prep that will keep you organized and on-track.

When members of the military march in formation, they usually reach a point where they pivot to change direction. And after time in the service, veterans reach a pivot point where they must decide what to do with their future. That is why we named Drexel's upcoming virtual conference, sponsored by the Veterans Task Force — Pivot and March Forward: Pathways from Military Service to Educational and Career Success. This virtual conference is designed specifically for military-connected students and their stakeholders and will offer learning opportunities about the many educational and professional options available after military service.

Barnes & Noble Drexel University has special hours for Family Weekend.
