What Drexel University publishes
As of our last check, Drexel University publishes no policy specifically addressing applicants' use of AI on application essays. Nothing on its admissions pages either permits or prohibits AI feedback, brainstorming help, or editing tools.
Silence is not permission. With no published rule, the Common App's own fraud policy and the school's general integrity expectations still apply: the essay must be the applicant's own work. Getting feedback that leaves you the author is a different act from submitting text you did not write, but where a school has stated nothing, that distinction is yours to make and yours to verify.

What we checked
Drexel University accepts applications through Common App and Coalition. We read each admissions page listed below for a rule on applicants' use of AI and found none. What Drexel University does say about the essay and about honesty is quoted here, in its own words.
“All applicants must submit a 250- to 650-word essay via the Common Application or the Coalition Application with Scoir.”

Do your own fact-checking. This page is a starting point, not the authority. The school's own admissions pages are. Policies can change after our check date (November 3, 2026), and you are responsible for verifying Drexel University's current policy yourself before you rely on it, here or anywhere else.
