  • “Freshman dorms are... interesting. The suite-style dorms are super nice, but most of the traditional dorms are old, gross, uninviting, and often plagued by a variety of bugs. I think…”

Student Responses to Review Topic: Food And Dining

    Overpriced stuff at the stores where your Dragon Dollars are accepted, and not a huge variety with only one dining hall. Seriously, the food trucks are where it's at. Dirt cheap but absolutely INCREDIBLE food! (The Happy Sunshine Lunch truck is the best btw! Hash Brown, Bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, w/salt, pepper, and ketchup!)

    There are many options for any Drexel Student: the Drexel cafeteria, separate food establishments, and a grocer that distributes, at a modest price, various snacks and ingredients for meals of all kinds.

    The food is sub-par at best. For all freshmen coming in, unless you like gross food do not go with the meal plan that gets you unlimited meals at the dining hall. Dining dollars are far more useful for places like Starbucks and Seasons. That's about the only place you can find good food aside from the food trucks on campus. If you came to Drexel and are at the dining hall and thought it was good, that's a lie, they up the food quality when prospective students visit.

    There are alot of options for food. There is of course, the campus food, which is pretty good for what it is. Then there are of course lots of restaurants nearby, pizza places, and of course food trucks, scattered all over campus.

    food trucks are great, northside is great as well but can easily make your dining dollars disappear if you are not careful, DO NOT go to the Hans unless you really need to

    Exactly what you would expect from a college cafeteria, but the surrounding restaurants deserve a 5/5!

    Definitely high quality Greek Life on campus...NO HAZING! Drexel is known for its anti-hazing policies and if something happens along those lines, there is an investigation that goes on, and then it is not uncommon for that chapter to get kicked off campus. They are really strict on it and the faculty are also involved heavily with it. Good stuff!

    The Greek fraternities and sororities help the community thrive through civil service and fundraising.

    While I don't know too much because I don't participate in Greek Life, I know that we do have a large population of Greek students.

    I am currently in Greek life and overall, Drexel has a good fraternity and sorority life program. There are 12 fraternities and 6 sororities on campus, and always growing.

    As with a lot of schools, Greek life seems to take over campus entirely sometimes. Which is fine if you're into that kind of thing, I guess...
