Yes, Drexel University carries a high private university sticker price, with annual undergraduate tuition and mandatory fees typically exceeding 55,000 to 60,000 dollars per academic year before housing and meal expenses are added. However, the comprehensive financial investment is often offset by the unique cooperative education model, which allows students to earn significant wages during paid co-op work cycles. Furthermore, the vast majority of undergraduate students receive institutional merit scholarships or financial aid awards that substantially lower net out-of-pocket costs.
