Hi! I'm trying to fill out the application for the Drexel/Drexel 7 Year BS/MD Program and it has the essay prompt for the letter of intent. There's no word limit or requirement though that I can find anywhere. Anyone know what the requirements for this are? Thanks!

Do you know whether one application form to drexel is enough to apply for all the med programs in villavanova, leheigh?

You need to do the applications for villanova and lehigh separately in order to be considered for them. For Drexel app question it was pretty much just whatever you can fit on one page.

Not sure I understand, I've got the same question too. So if you are applying to the Drexel/Drexel School of Med, Lehigh/Drexel School of Med., and the Villanova/Drexel School of Med, do you only need to fill out the application for the Drexel School of Med once? It seems a little ridiculous to send it multiple times...

You need to do an undergrad app for each of the schools but only one app for the med school if that clears things up

Hey guys!

I applied to all 3 programs and got In to all 3. I am currently attending Villanova's program.

Yes, you do need to complete all 3 undergrad supplement, but the essay for the medical school is the same for all 3 schools. It was redundant, but I had to send in the same essay/application for all 3 undergrads to the medical school. I think you can just send in 1 application, but I erred on the side of caution and just sent all 3 medical school applications to each undergrad. The reason for that is not all undergrads will forward your medical school application to the medical school so try your best to send in those med school apps to all the schools. Also, unlike some other programs, just because you get into the medical school does not mean you will get into all the undergrads you applied to and if you submit your med app to 1 school and not to the others, they will auto reject you because they assume that you changed your mind about the program/undergrad.

On the current medical school application, there are check boxes for the individual undergraduate schools that have the program (ie. one for Lehigh/Drexel, Drexel/Drexel, Villanova/Drexel) that you're applying to. Do you have to do anything more than check those boxes? You have to submit your medical school essays to the undergraduate schools separately?

if I remember correctly, each undergrad will send you the exact same thing so I just filled it out for each undergrad that sent me it (filled out the same app 3 times....). As I mentioned before, each undergrad wants you to submit that application to them directly and they will forward your application to the medical school. If you are feeling lazy, call them up and ask if you can just fill out 1 app. You may be able to because there are checks that will tell the med school which other undergrads you are applying to, but I just submitted the same app over and over and over again to each of the 3 undergrads so that each undergrad gets my application and knows that I am aknowleged their response

Yes advisor told me to submit same application to 2 programs, Villanova and Drexel.

I applied for the Drexel/Drexel program! I actually did Villanova/Penn for dentistry. Anyone hear anything back from Drexel yet?
