District of Columbia Department of Human Resources (DCHR) and Drexel are investing in your future

Drexel University works hard to make sure that every student can afford tuition to earn their top-ranked degree online. While every program has its own tuition rate, we offer special reduced rates for alumni and students affiliated with the military and various partnered organizations. Discounted tuition rates do not apply to on-campus residencies.

Apply Early

It's important to submit your application as soon as possible to be deemed eligible for assistance. If you anticipate being dependent on federal loan or grant programs in order to start classes at Drexel, be aware that any federal loan or grant money you qualify for will not be available to you until after you've submitted all of the following:

• Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form - Drexel's school code is 003256
• Complete outstanding financial aid requirements online at Discover Drexel
• An application for admission and all required supporting documents

Drexel's application deadlines are designed to assure that you're admitted in time to obtain textbooks and complete other start-up and orientation activities, but may not allow sufficient time to guarantee processing of financial aid requests.

Timely receipt of financial aid funds also assumes that you pre-register for courses and promptly respond to additional financial aid requests such as signing promissory notes, completion of federally required entrance counseling, and supplying documentation if selected for verification.
