PURDUEEEE
BOILERMAKERS!!
10% I believe
yeah
no problem
jan 15th
Oh fuck
why do they send decisions so lateee
like all EA
tbh its early compared to a lot of EAs
Go boilermakers!!
I chose second choice major in case didn't get into cs
Haha valid
F Purdue
is the AI major part of cs or a whole different thing
whole diff thing
fuck
cs is the one with <10% acceptance rate
AI is new this or last year? iirc
correct me if wrong
Yes
@candid galleon nothing wrong w AI lol! youlll def take cs classes a lot
No, there's not a huge relationshiop
Purdue CS is less than 10% ar?
@uneven palm Did you apply to the BS or BA program?
BA
Ok so that's a philosophy major with CS courses sprinkled in
there's a BA and BS for cs??
No, for AI
There's no CS BA
It's just CS, BS
theres BSCS and then AI has a BA and BS
I'm somewhat of a Purdue CS student myself
Half time high schooler, half time Purdue CS student
Technically full time high schooler half time Purdue CS student
there was BS and BA for AI?
Purdue fucking sucks
Yes
when i applied it jus said AI
isnt AI in the xcollege of science?
lemme check
college of science
thats a BS then
Yes
So you've got some decent AI coursework here
is it more cs focused for BS?
CS373 is our intro AI course, also some grad level stats courses
Yes
alrights thats good
There's still some philosophy but less so than the BA
The AI major won't cover any systems stuff
No C programming or architecture
Dodged a major bullet actually
So long as you like math
would it be a good at finding a tech job developing AI?
For sure. The AI classes are hellish but they’re respected. In a way it’s better than CS because you’re not working on other parts of the CS major that won’t matter for AI
thank u for the help!
are u majoring in cs urself?
Yes, gonna be full time as a junior next year unless Purdue rejects me
goodluck man
Thanks! You as well
hello
Hello
best of luck for the 21st
15th jan ?
It's the 15th of January, I thought
Your point?
Did you ED to uchicago
just wishing you luck
if you did
as uchicago ed releases on 21st
thats all
saw ur username
wished you luck
but yes
purdue
jan 15th
IBE
1410 SAT
15th of jan still so far away 
Yea, I ED'd uChicago
fr
aint nobody tryna wait that long
Ridiculous
like just tell me now 😭
purdue and osu the only schools i applied to that i actually wanna go to
Go boilermakers!
Go boilermakers!
L school
Go boilermakers!
I will boil your makers
anyone get the purdue holiday email
We’re raising our song anew. Purdue University presents “A Boilermaker Carol.”
We love the days we’ve spent with you, Boilermakers. Special thanks to the following partners for their contributions: the students of Purdue Musical Organizations; vocal soloist Addison Schreiber; Jacob Stensberg and Dr. Suki Wong of Purdue Musical Organizations; Pr...
yuh
man i sure do hope i get into purdue
Man same
Same
Same
Same
🫡
says decided on my portal
Send a screenshot
there
Yeah
😂 😂😂
technically it DOES say decided though🤣
@ashen cedar decided his decision himself lmfao
No, but this did come up last night. It didn’t exist before this. Plus, lots of folks on Reddit also have the same claim as me, so I just think that it indicates they’re mostly done with decisions, and will release it on 15th.
I’m not sure what you’re laughing at here. Genuinely. I literally only said it says decided on my portal, NOTHING else.
Like, get the fuck out of here with that shitty snark.
I meant it in that way itself. Not sure why y’all interpreted it as I got my decision. It’s clear that they’ll only release it on 15th of Jan.
My portal has said this since nov5th
It’s just a status tracker
And the arrow shows where your application is currently
They haven’t decided
And if they had
You’d be able to click on the decided and view your decision

Merry Christmas Y’all.
Damn, that’s nice. Mine came up yesterday. But yeah, Merry Christmas! Gorgeous Christmas tree you’ve got there.

Wooo
🥳
Hi All
Do we have to individually apply for scholarships through "scholarship universe"
or we are automatically considered
I am an international student aspiring to major in CS
cool bro
prolly learn to take a joke?
🤣
exactly
are we supposed to sign up for scholarships on the scholarshipverse thingy
depends on the college u applied to i think
i applied to college of science
Same
lol
they have a 10% acceptance ragte
I am applying there also
brug
did u apply for any scholarships
U r automically selected for scholarships when u apply to purdue
but i did do some extra ones
yeah
thats good cause i did not feel like doin any extra apps for scholarships
lol yeah. I hate essays.
but 10% is insane
Right now, I writing essay on Christmas
w
UIUC computer science department is 5%
bruh uiuc isnt real
?
Ik one
thats insane
what is his goal?
IDk. But he def have a passion for STEM
hes tuff
Off topic but Purdue cs is just as comp as UIUC cs without being as good
yeah
in reality, they prob teach the same stuff
Colleges like to lower the acceptance rate to make them more prestiege
so they could charge more money
does it make a difference if i applied to artificial intelligence in cos
as my 2nd
w
I guess we r competing against each other
ik im not bout to get into cs
why
10% is insane
relax
that percentage is when Purdue extended their deadline, so more unqualified ppl applied
It tends to be around 15 - 20. But we cant trust the data because Purdue never release official record
Lol
dream big
I don't care if I got deferred
I already got a college deal that is pretty good
thats tuff
what college if u dont mind me asking
I’m just doing all the Midwestern colleges
telling u the truth. The school u go to doesn't matter at all , especially in CS
CS is in such high demands that companies are willing to take everyone. Where u go to college only matters in ur first job and thats it
fr?
thats tuff
And plus remember, not everyone applying for CS is going to major in CS
CS is so romanctize that ppl who don't have passion for the subject signed up because of what others told them
for example, if I have to guess, prob 2/3 of a CS class drop out
2/3?
damn
so upper level classes r small?
faxxxxx
ez money acc to them
they dont realise
u cant just pull thru it
without actually liking it
cs always requires you to go a bit extra of the syllabus
after a semester of doing CS, these people prob quit to major in something they actually interested in
yes lmao
fax. That's ppl with passion in CS actually pass the classes
yall applied to umd?
What s that
university of maryland
no
damn
it seems like a fye place for cs
hopefully i get in there if purdue doesn't turn out well
good luck
thank u
ux design sounds tuff
gl tho
thank you
idk how competitve ux design is at purdue but i heard purdue's ux design is pretty good
Our first sem fresh had 900 seats last year, our second semester soph mandatory has 400
Yes. They take an easy comp Sci class like AP CS A and think CS is like that. Spoiler: it’s not
Most cs is math — if you think it’s mostly coding get out while you can
I never took any of those classes. I took Harvard CS50 during the summer. It’s an actual CS class in Harvard.
It’s hard af. The workload is insane. Most ppl Ik give up after 2 lessons
Dang it’s kinda scary that my assumption is almost correct
Purdue CS Core for anyone interested.
180 - Java Programming
182 - Discrete Math
240 - C programming
250 - Computer Architecture
251 - Data Structures,
252 - Systems Programming
180 is the only class that’s purely programming
After that there’s a shift to the mathematical and theoretical aspects of CS
Do u mind sharing ur high school stats.
I want to get ready for the letter do federal
Deferal
CS doesn’t defer since you have to apply EA afaik
3.65, 1440, and sophomore by credits at Purdue
(I haven’t been admitted to Purdue as a full time student btw)
I’m a half time student there and full time HS student
Save the discrete math class I’ve gotten As in all the core courses I’ve taken
182 is a long story
All in a year?
No. 2 years.
Oh
180 is fall freshman. 182, 240 are spring freshman. 250, 251 are fall sophomore, 252 is spring sophomore
These classes aren’t like Hs classes
Prepare to spend 14+ hrs a week on Purdue classes
Dangggg. That’s insane. How did u do that
I just drive to campus is the afternoon
No. I just think u must be an academic weapon for doing that. I don’t think anyone here is doing actual college level courses in high school
Most CS Cores are like this though right? I can't think of one that's purely programming anyways
Oh yeah, but most ppl don’t realize that
Nah ea is just priority deadline
I think u can still get in rd it's just a lot harder
Hehe
its not just reddit - purdue has officially declared it will be released by 15 
damn homie can’t handle no joke
yo thats some beautiful shit, hope ur christmas was dope :)
There is a high demand for software engineers
There are also alot of software engineers.
Seems weird right? Why is there still a high demand? Because most of them are unemployable developers - meaning they have a degree but lack the skills required in that particular industry.
People go in without passion into CS pretty often, which sucks but their loss ig 
I forgot to check, does AP CS credit apply in purdue?
Our losss too as that is what increases competition for cs
true, but unlike them we’re gonna put in the work towards our long term goals and grab them.
Yes, but that’s not what I said. I said that Reddit was claiming that they got that “Decided” text on their portal yesterday.
Yeah, no, I’d rather be defensive when I’m unable to understand the tone of a reply.
Apcsa 4/5 and apcsp 4 go towards a class that is essentially useless for a Purdue cs degree
But if your not planning on majoring in cs it probably will fulfill some sort of requirement
pointless for me then
It might be good to fulfill like credit reqs tho
Purdue when 😩😩
we love u @worn geyser
Jan 15
bruh thas too far
Nah it come like fast
lol. fax
🫰 so truee
Is waiting for decisions making you lose ur mind?
I accidentally made a joke
yes. It legit keeps me awake at night
And plus department I am applying to have a 10 -15% acceptance
no i shotgun ivies to take it off my mind
if you have fee waivers / money you are willing to expend
i would recommend
I already applied to >20 schools I'm done with college apps
Anyone know anyone who got into Purdue department of science
thats insane
That myst be a lot of college essays
6 of them were ucs so a bit less writing but yeah
purdue science isnt the worst to get into
it just contains the worst major
CS
so true
What did u apply for
Comp Eng
tryna get me some of that t10 engineering prestige 🥰 😻
jk but purdue engineering is hell
sounds like fun
It is known for its 10 pm to 2 am
Doing that for 4 years is not bad, considering the 100k+ paycheck
!purdue
im still confused if AI, BS is different than CS
will AI jus be as hard to get into like CS since they are both cs related?
AI BS has a decent portion of humanities/ethics stuff too
but i think AI BA has more of that
CS includes some AI electives tho
no AI (especially BA), would be easier i think
i did bs
but for AI BS, the difference wouldn't be as substantial
damn
Probably, because the main limiting factor is seats in courses. Because the AI major shares many of the same courses as CS, there will be the exact same limitations on seats, However, I suspect that it'll be easier to stand out due to the smaller applicant pool size
i hope thats the case with the pool size
not funny...
Why tho 😦
😔
bored
Not cool my dude
lol
u should have dome it after the holidays
would have been more realisitc
Any college that releases their decisions between the times of Christmas and new years are just morally corrupt
uChicago cut it close this year...
anyone know what the scholarshipuniverse on purdues application portal is for?
Is scholarship hub just for domestic students or international students can also apply?
i have no clue
Sup

like just let me keep applying
just dont post decisions
ever
wait
lemme keep applying though
oh sure
45 is insane
send list
45 is different fr fr
Hi
hii
when will it change from completed to decided
mine says decided but i can’t see the decision
!chance purdue
maybe theyve decided not to show you your decision
english?
cs
or ai
oh shit thats not good
cs is not part of engineering though
its in the college of science
that acceptance rate will probably hover around 10% this year
thats not good
lemme jus cross purdue of my list real quick
im with u on that one
umd here i come
purdue please take me 🫶
same idk y im saying here i come
fr
umd slays
damn did we apply to same same schools lmao
bruh i need rutgers to come rn
same right bro
nj cs applicants??
i'm cali
closest thing here is umd
shiii
bay area
u applied to the ucs?
woahh omg i didnt know cali people applied to rutgers lmao
new jersey born and raised
im hoping for this
so much 🙏
i neeed to get in
you probably will tbh
ooh thats so cool
thats tuff
cause i used to visit campus and go to event and stuff a ton
shit was lit back when i was 3 years old
manifesting that acceptance since day 1
You’ll get into UMN
Lol same my dad did his masters there
That’s the only reason I know what Rutgers is
fr
yeah. we got this though.
🙏
feel like as a cs major, no school is easy to get into
fr
my school is apparently a feeder to Purdue so i'm chilling I hope
When do decisions release?
ahh nicee
15th
i think jan 15?
and maybe a day or 2 before
jan 15th 5 pm
ty :))
5pm ct? or est?
sheesh you're chilling
dang u guys have naviance. my school don't 😭
oh niceee
ayyy
wish i could see my school but my school don't have naviance 😭
aww noo rip
have u tried asking ur counselor?
for stats and stuff?
barely talked to him
oh 😦
stats is useless as most people in my school stay in state anyways
it's okay just gotta wait a week and you'll see
does purdue defer a lot?
hmm not sure, for my school last year at least a small number(2 or 3 defers), mostly people got either accepted or rejected
but im not sure about the overall trend
globally
Actually nvm there seems to be a lot of defers at my school lol
at a specific range
from ACT 28 - 32 gpa 3.6-3.8
Omg @quasi remnant when did u join the server lmao
R u instate or OOS?
joined while ago but became active recently 💀
OOS
ur school loves purdue then
other way around
perdoo
so true
😭😭
brock purdue
i heard you can go ice skating to school
Lol
💀
It’s cold asf here but not a lot of snow/ice
i think we can ski to school for umich then
is there a lake nearby
or even within campus
that freezes over in teh winter
Honestly I dunno why I applied to Purdue
same tbh
Purdue has a decent reputation for cs but it’s not worth how competitive it is imo
Like uw Madison is ranked higher than Purdue for cs and it’s way easier to get into
Purdue is p mid
really??
i thought purdue was like a cs t20
lol
It’s not
Purdue used to have a great reputation but over the years it’s kinda just
Descended in the rankings
Nah, it’s climbing for CS
At least for undergraduate
It’s been climbing?
lowkey not a fan of the theoretical curriculum they have
Still does for engineering
seems outdated
CS is climbing Tho
It says number 20 for me
You’re looking at grad
#19
i was looking there
but yea
both are similar
but i feel purdue is more well known than uwu madison
definetely
Oh my bad
This is true
You could say that abt the system’s curriculum but I think theory is fine
Uw Madison is pretty underrated
It doesn’t help that they have a 650 word why us essay lmfao
it was a lot of copy pasting tho
they said to make it like 300 or smth
on the website
Very true
what are good stats for Purdue
whats ur major
compE
and are u OOS or not
OOS
what is it
Answers to frequently asked questions regarding Purdue Engineering, including questions related to admissions, academics, finances, and student life.
You can't apply to CompE
I have 4.59/4 gpa, 1540 sat and top 5% of class at a competitive school
k ur good
as long as ur ecs and essays are decent
my essay was meh tho lol
Purdue is a stat heavy school
yeah ik they have 1st year general engineering like a&m
do you know if ut is also stat heavy?
Ut Austin?
how highly do they consider SAT/ACT scores?
Consider the fact that Purdue is one of the only schools that absolutely requires it
That should tell you a lot about how much they care abt it
No idea, sry
Yeah
They’re very prestigious and extremely good for CS and it probably is stat heavy
But don’t take my word for it lol
are you a texas resident?
From my school last year a lot of 4.0s and 36 ACTs got rejected
nope! Californian
wait do u think they wanna see high 1500s for CS
idt they've released avg stats by major so
Yeah probably
I am but applying for ECE
UT Austin you need to have pretty high stats as an OOS
Oh if ur a Texas resident that should be better for you
Yeah
the in state gives you a big boost
true
Yea 300-500 but it scared a lot of kids at my school off
Yeah unfortunately they were all gonna do RD
Lol
So it didn’t matter for me cuz I did EA
RD Purdue is impossible lol
i applied but the weather scares me off 💀
yea esp for CS it usually fills up in EA 💀
Yeah
Fair enough
Unfortunate for a lot of ppl lol
u did umich tho right
the weather is just as worse 💀
alr but umich is umich
i believe it's one of those "EA or nothing" type of schools
similar to UMD
Yeah rip
UIUC also I think similar
most t100 publics tbh
For CS/Engineering V much so
same with uiuc
hahaha me UIUC RD
whatever
oh im also umich rd
but like i'm not very passionate about umich
not as invested as i am in UIUC
nooooo
I am UIUC rd but UMich EA lol
dont htink so
bro look at niche
people were too scared to report their denials
lol fr
good thing my school requires everyone to report on naviance
so its not biased
i wish mine did
would help A LOT
Purdue general might be a safety
CS tho 😓
damn what happened in 2023
purdue has around 57% acceptance rate for my school
no one reported wym
decisions havent been released
@rocky anchor channel already exists.
sorry did not know guys sorrt
Not for engineer and cs stuff lol
Literally top 10 engineer
By general I meant undecided
Might be less so for other major (hopefully bus too cuz i applied to business at purdue 😇)
Ah
Ye
Idk they might require u to go through some sorta process when u want to join certain major or colleges at purdue
Ye
Getting into CS or eng is very very difficult if not directly admitted
Ah interesting
Purdue business is also very good
Damn purdue tech field is crazy 💀
Krannert right
There’s a major called IBE
It’s a partnership between krannert and the COE
I chose it as my first major
Purdues really good lol
I hope I get in
Idk lol
Ah ye it is
No clue lol
If thats the bus+ slight minor in tech/engineering
Ye i also put that as my first choice
I think
It is yes
Ah lol
Ah no
I put bus analytics + information management first
Then its ibe
Might do double major on them lol
lol
Great courses but well see if i choose to go here
Top choice is what?
Bus analytics + information management
This one
bro is majoring in analyzing buses
i dont think so
dont all ea decisions come out jan 15
unless you're talkin about rd
yh rd
ahhhhhh 10 days until decisions
ahhh
hm yes i think their rd is rolling
cus it says by march 31 vs on jan 15
Kk
decisions come out on the 15th?
yeah
1 week!!
hyper
🙏
i have fiya stats tho and purdue loves my school
so no scared
nah but zero rejects tho???
can't be beat
nah the margin of ppl who didn't report each year is 1-5 ppl
which makes it around 80% self reported
i wish i could see my school's 2023
So Purdue say on Jan 15 but that’s on a Sunday
So I think they might come out on the 13th which is on Friday
Last year they were released on a Saturday
Ok nvm then. Purdue likes the weekend 😂
yessir
right before i finished my ib mock exam :'_)
manifesting a cs acceptance 🙏
also good luck
wow top10 🥲
is the Data Science a relatively new major at Purdue?
Yes
Yeah data sci and artificial intelligence are vv new
Yes
We're getting a new data science building on campus actually
Oh that's cool
so does that make the acceptance easier?
Not necessarily because they share a lot of classes with CS and they have fewer seats
Don't die that's cringe
Yeah, other than CS and Engineering Purdue isn’t that bad
Are you in-state?
does AI fall in the CS realm
Yes, BS more so than BA
There are actually no AI specific classes
It's all CS and philosophy
so acceptance will be jus as competitive?
It's easier to stand out in a small field
Since I suspect they allocated 'x' number of seats for AI
But they don't really know how many ppl are applying to it
im regretting doing engineering and AI 😭
should have done an easier major, i really like purdue
I did Cs and then second choice math
It sucks that Purdue admits by major
its a state school they dont have any other choice rly
lol
i did bus analytics lol
okay but they have LEPs
interdisciplinary major all the way
they do by school right?
ye
same with umd?
yes but LEPs
whats LEPs?
limited enrollment programs
Ya but cs is in cla soo
You just need a c- in the foundational cs course iirc
Ok but it’s so easy to switch in
isnt it easier to get into cla than coe tho?
Man I am so worried I am international student one of toughest acceptance rates here but really hope to get in
for purdue?
i cant find any stats lol
but since its a public land-grant uni so ig international student acp rate might be lower than other priv schools
props to Purdue for releasing their EA decisions earlier than the rest
Yep yep yep they are around 5 %
Yes huge props
wow
ye 8.7% ppl who go to purdue is international
nd telling well in advance their date
umass should really learn from purdue
BOILERMAKERS FTW!!!
I mean that’s uw Madison or UMD lol
REALLY
u mean that?
if thats the case then im set
i need purdue umass and madison
drc abt the rest
theyre possible to get into ur saying?
Stats 1410 3.7 amazing ecs
If this da case I might me somewhere
if i get into madison
i will be so happy ahahahahsdfghsherfjgbfmergjnhkrmg
dnfgbjnmgrtrkebnf
lol
Bc mfs were like naw actually its a 10% oos admit rate
rip
its 20 on usnews
ea would've been the same
Then last minute i wws like yk what lemme apply last minute
really?
t10 for engineering tho
lol
ye i would love to get in
Thats why uc betta
praying
we shall pray
Breuh, good luck guys. Im applying RD so im hoping mine releases with yours. Good luck and best wishes to all.
Bad hope man how is that even possible
Last year they released on a Saturday
its confirmed to come out 15th though
Im hoping for anything at this time really
def not lol
aint no way rd and ea are same date 🥲
t5
we in a similar boat lets see how it goes
im 3.9 uw, 1570 oos cs ea
prayin hard for an admit so i can have some backup going into rd
@signal cobalt Ye never know, it might come out in 10 minutes. I applied to baylor uni RD and got accepted, the deadline for RD admission is still ongoing
LOL
A 1570 on sat dude that is assuring u the place
bro is in all my threads 😭
u guys got this
