Does Drexel take EC's lightly?

On Drexel's application, there was no place to indicate what type of EC I did outside of schools. Also, the application did not instruct applicants to list current classes, GPA, SAT scores, etc. It was just name, address, the basic info. Then how does Drexel chose students?

If you didn't submit your app yet, I would suggest filling out the CommonApp because it hits ALL points. If you already sent it, your high school should/will send a transcript in that includes your current classes, GPA, and SAT scores. Additionally, I know of a senior this year who applied to drexel with a 3.3 GPA and scored in the mid 1200s on the SAT, but didn't have any EC's so he/she was denied. I'm not sure if that will help. I was accepted into Drexel about 2 weeks ago, but I used the CommonApp.
