Advising for Engineers Reminder


Be sure to check out the Advising for Engineers portal in BBLearn. The portal contains answers to our most common questions along with other helpful resources. In addition to the main tabs (customize degree, registration, tools, opportunities, graduation) there is also a DEPARTMENT folder with information specifically for your major which may include planning tools, curriculum information, policies and procedures, etc. 


Add/Drop Reminder


The official last day to Add/Drop a course for fall term is Monday, October 2 at 4 p.m. with advisor assistance and at 11:59 p.m. on your own via DrexelOne. You will need advisor assistance if this is your first quarter at Drexel or if the class requires an override (ex: pre-requisite, course repeat, etc.). After the add/drop deadline, you will not be able to add or drop courses; however, you will have until the end of Week 7 to withdraw from courses. For more important information, see Advising for Engineers.


STEM Funding Opportunities


PathwaysToScience.org currently has over 65 portable scholarships and fellowships posted on the site, all with an emphasis on STEM. Many of these scholarships and fellowships have early fall deadlines for funding for the 23/24 academic year. Undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships and postdoctoral fellowships and positions are all listed on separate pages for ease of use. We encourage students to check out these opportunities.
