GMAT Prep Course
The Professional MBA Program offers on-campus GMAT Prep resources. The sessions run approximately three hours once
a week for a period of seven weeks. The price for the course is $600. Students who receive a score of 550 or higher
on the GMAT test can then apply the $600 to their tuition credits over the first two quarters where they are in good
academic standing and enrolled in MBA classes.
Drexel Career Integrated Education (CIE)
A period of full-time employment is perhaps the best form of career preparation, especially for full-time MBA
students. The Drexel Career Integrated Education (CIE) option provides full-time students with the opportunity to
gain academic credit while obtaining real-world experience. CIE is ideal for students seeking to build resumes, for
international students wanting to work in the United States, for U.S. students seeking to work overseas, and those who
are pursuing the MBA with the goal of changing careers. Some students who have participated have been able to pursue
permanent employment with their CIE employer. Drexel maintains a network of more than 1,600 hiring organizations-both
in the United States and abroad that can be approached for CIE employment.
