Mock Admissions with a Dean—Oct. 1 at 5:00 pm in 1022 Lincoln Hall. Isabel DiSciullo, Assistant Dean of Admissions at Drexel School of Law, will bring the applications and let YOU decide whom to admit. Along the way, we’ll find out: What do deans really think of personal statements? Do letters of recommendation make a big difference? How do applicants below the medians get admitted? Dean DiSciullo will give us the inside view of admissions, so bring your questions! Pizza will be served.

This is a great opportunity to learn from a professional in this field. Pizza will be served.
