Usually, 3-bed and 3-bath apartments are preferred as they cost about $500-600 per month including all utilities This is usually exclusive of furniture.

Course Curriculum, Alumni Network. LeBow in particular has a great alumni network and the careers team here is exceptionally nice and helpful.

Hostel:

In the first year, we are required to live in the residential hall. In the second year, we can live in any of the affiliated buildings on campus. After the third year, we can stay wherever we want. Since we are in the city the rent is high depending on the type of apartment you get. I had an upper-class apartment with skyline views and my own room. I've lived in different places but my rent was always over $1100 not including utilities and electricity.

They're a private school, specializing in co-ops, and are among the best in the country with connections to Fortune 500 companies. Students are able to gain 2 years of experience even before graduation.

Hostel:

I don't live on campus. I live in Evo at Cire Center South. My rent on campus was around $950 per month and off-campus is $1,400.

I chose Drexel for the co-op program and also because I planned to transfer before I started and my counselor told me a private school would be easier to transfer from.

Hostel:

I've lived off campus since the start of my program and it's a little cheaper as compared to the on-campus accommodations. But I've realized that if you spend more money, you get really good housing on campus while off-campus housing has its own perks.

Good Computer Science program and the co-op program.

Hostel:

I used to live on campus in my first year, but I now have my own apartment. The accommodating rooms required us to share with another person.

I chose Drexel University mainly because of its co-op program. I also chose it because of the wide range of options in majors and minors, which allowed me to explore different programs that the university offered.

The Drexel Co-op program gave internship experience prior to receiving my degree. At the time I went, not a lot of colleges offered this, so it was a great incentive. It was also located in a pretty major city that allowed for a metropolitan experience.

Hostel:

University Housing was quite small and extremely overpriced. Drexel has a two-year living requirement. The first year is in the dorm and the second year is in an apartment. It's nice because it gradually introduces you to living on your own and having responsibilities.

The co-op program! Our co-op program is world class. Students get placed into top 500 companies and get paid well. They can also work anywhere in the domestic United States or internationally. You work for 6 months full time instead of going to classes.

Hostel:

Rent $1100/month. Food $1000

Coop at Drexel is one of the best all over the US. The ability to get industry experience 3 times during undergrad is worthless. Hence, I felt Drexel is the best option for me.

Hostel:

$15,000

Well, LeBow's Analytics program is very well structured and has sufficient industry interaction opportunities. We are given options from a consulting project to corporate internship, and this gives a student a good exposure.

Hostel:

The room where I live is okay for single person and it is near to campus.

Because the advisor with whom, I am working, mine research area matches.
