Drew University | University Info | 44 Bachelors in English

Drew was established in 1867 as a seminary, the antecedent of today’s Drew Theological School. In 1928, a gift led to the addition of the College of Liberal Arts, which began as a small college for men, became co-educational during the 1940s and grew significantly in the 1960s. In the early 1980s, it was granted what is still only the fourth Phi Beta Kappa chapter in the state.

Great institution for great achievers

Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars

Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars

I grew up professionally and mentally over the 3,5 years of my college career. The only thing I wish turned out differently is that I'd have received more information regarding the education system in the United States since as an...

Amazing University

Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars

I absolutely love Drew. They have many programs to study abroad for short and long periods of time. They generously give scholarships if you deserve them and the classes are small enough to make connections for life.
