Purdue (2022-2023)

[unreal charm]

Congrats

Were u rd or deferred

[digital shore]

Is Purdue worth considering over LA and SD for CS?

[void briar]

Definetly depends on what your plans / financial situations are but personally, I would consider LA CS and SD CS over Purdue.

[digital shore]

It’s in state so both are way cheaper. Purdue vibe seems really cool, but probably not 30k more in tuition cool

Thank you

[river trout]

oh dang yeah i'd def go with the UCs then

i think purdue cs prestige might be higher? but i bet sd/la have equal if not better placement just off location

and also like vibes man would you really want to be in indiana 💀

[limber cobalt]

i would say sd and purdue would be similar but not la

la would be way higher

[river trout]

i feel like they all have similarly strong cs departments, no?

(but yes saying you went to ucla is very very cool)

[digital shore]

La is a couple above sd which is right above purdue

And I think I’ve just grown attached to Purdue because it was the only EA school I got into so I kinda convinced myself it would be my only option. Maybe Indiana really isn’t it lol

[river trout]

it really is not

imo

and the price difference is big

where in cali are you rn?

[digital shore]

Like 40 minutes from LA

So pretty close by which for me is more of a con

[river trout]

ah

i kinda get wanting to be further away, yeah

[digital shore]

Thanks for the input. Still have a month so no rush

[river trout]

but at the same time it feels really different being on campus and out of your parents house no matter how far away you actually are

[digital shore]

True not like I’m commuting

[proud tangle]

ucla is
-cheaper
-nicer campus
-better program

put your head down for four years, get your degree, then get away from home with your large starting salary and minimal debt.

[amber summit]

which is better University if Washington CS or Purdue CS, OOS for both

[little grove]

university of Washington, a 100%

specially if its a direct admit

[real crane]

How good is the school of management at prudue

[scarlet oxide]

I’m so impatient I can’t wait a week more 😭

[real crane]

I got in for Econ

But I have no clue how good their business school is

[limber cobalt]

uw is direct admit for sure

yo guys whats the acceptance rate for purdue for rd

[proud tangle]

did anyone get into ai? how big is the major?

[signal cobalt]

i think (the last time i did math) it was like 44%

last year i think

[lethal kiln]

@worn geyser

i got in

lesgo!

[oblique lance]

i feel like theres been way more cs acceptances rd than ea

could just be me tho

[digital shore]

well when you put it that way

i'm convinced

[worn geyser]

LESSSGOOO

HELL YEAH MAN CONGRATS

Which major omg?

[lethal kiln]

CS

lesgoooo

[lethal kiln]

i was deferred

[oblique lance]

same

[lethal kiln]

the CS acceptances were more becaudse they deferred everyone who they wanted to admit

so that loci coulkd show how interested they really are

a mild yield "control" u could say

[oblique lance]

thats the thing my friends who get deferred didnt write a loci and got in

for cs

[lethal kiln]

ohh

thats nice

so that rules it out

[carmine stag]

just got accepted to purdue cs😁

[slow garnet]

i changed my A level courses and have been diagnosed with ADD, is there a good chance they rescind offer? cs

went from a levels in physics, comp sci, math, further maths to the first 3 + as further maths

dunno if there are any UK people here

[pale creek]

Still haven’t gotten my deferred cs decision🌝

[loud sundial]

samee

waiting for that rejection tbh😓

[dense forum]

stop 😭 im@so disappointed rn

[subtle plank]

guys whats the reason behind the decision release in waves

[proud tangle]

to make you squirm

[spice sparrow]

Anyone who applied rd heard back yet or nah

[proud tangle]

yes there was a wave last week

[slow garnet]

yesterday for cs

[subtle plank]

Actually im srs bro

[oblique lance]

we have no idea

[sweet elm]

I can’t login my account bruh

[oblique lance]

sometimes they make decisions in batches and just release them because those decisions are for certain

[subtle plank]

so that means that my application decision is not certain

?

[proud tangle]

ya unfortunately it seems the longer you wait the more likely you did not get into your first choice major.

[subtle plank]

nah I think they just saving the best for last

[rough fog]

i got in EA

no clue how big it is 🗿 but i assume smaller than cs and maybe a little less competitive

[grave pulsar]

so is the next wave next friday?

[subtle plank]

yeah

[subtle plank]

u still didnt get a decision

?

[frail echo]

Does anyone remember how it was last year? A wave just for rejection seems unlikely to me

[subtle plank]

i think this final one will have everything, acceptance, rejections and waitlist

[river spindle]

last wave (31st, I think) was a few acceptances, a shitton of waitlists and barely any rejections

they barely rejected anyone last year iirc, just waitlist spam

[grave pulsar]

yea i never got my deferral decision back yet

[sweet silo]

is ai a good major for finding a career?

[frail echo]

So there’s probably one more wave then before the wave on the 31st?

[thin flame]

there will be at least one more wave for sure

we just don't know if it will be acceptances or rejections

[proud tangle]

who knows! brand new major

[sweet silo]

aaa :<

[spice sparrow]

Reddit barely had anyone in rd

[sweet silo]

do u think its worth the risque?

[spice sparrow]

It was mainly ppl who got deferred

[sweet silo]

almost all my friends who applied to AI got accepted and we joked about all attending there together

[spice sparrow]

My alt is ai

I applied reg

[sweet silo]

same

[spice sparrow]

Reg decision

Haven't heard back ywt

Only my ea friends heard back

[sweet silo]

wait rlly? i got my results yesterday

[proud tangle]

well purdue is top 20 in CS, cybersecurity, software engineering, data, and systems....

[spice sparrow]

And deferred friends

[sweet silo]

:0

whaaa

they told me i was a boilmaker last night

[dusty cipher]

Me and one other deferred friend heard back yesterday, one other friend hasn't heard back yet

We're all cs

[hearty bramble]

okay but we're t10 ece

[spice sparrow]

Ah I'm prob rejected then

[hearty bramble]

suck it cs nerds

[spice sparrow]

Whelp

[sweet silo]

ya i didnt apply for cs

[spice sparrow]

1/2/7 now

:(

[proud tangle]

every ece major smells as least 3x worse than me

[spice sparrow]

Cs has been a slap to the face for me

[dusty cipher]

don't count urself out until u get a final decision

also where'd u get in?

[hearty bramble]

man that's a lie and you know it, cause we actually have to go outside for labs

[spice sparrow]

Santa clara

[dusty cipher]

cs is brutal I knew that before going into college apps but 🤷‍♂️

[spice sparrow]

It's a safety

[dusty cipher]

oh yea scu is still a good school!

[spice sparrow]

I dont wanna be that close to home tho ngl

[proud tangle]

if it makes u feel any better, in the end it hardly matters where you go to school for CS after your first job.

[hearty bramble]

@spice sparrow I got in 2/0/10 or some shit into undecided udub and purdue, you'll be fine lol

[spice sparrow]

I'm praying on cal poly Purdue and Santa Barbara

[hearty bramble]

W take

[proud tangle]

if youre not top 20, maybe even top 15, you might as well just go wherevers cheapest.

[hearty bramble]

T50 is good

as long as it's a mildly recognizable name

[spice sparrow]

Tru

[dense forum]

^

[frail echo]

Purdue please bless me next week

[subtle plank]

same

[river trout]

same

[grave pulsar]

any deferred people still waiting on a decision? 😭

[fluid belfry]

Yep

[bronze canyon]

yup

[frail echo]

Yeah

[limber cobalt]

i guess the results would be out by next friday

is this true?

[subtle plank]

yeah

for the people still waiting for their decision would yall say yall got below average/ average or above average stats

[spice sparrow]

Above avg

But idk if it above avg for cs tho

[subtle plank]

u mind if you share them

[frail echo]

A few follow-ups:

Based on history, decisions will come out on Fridays until the last Friday of the month. In the last, early releases have been admits. The last days has been both admits and declines. One difference this year was some declines two weeks ago, but these appear to be all International applicants.

^ someone on College Confidential

[spice sparrow]

i did ib so dont really know bout uw

i really want to get to purdue eng since

[spice sparrow]

Altar serving scouts volunteering wrestling lots of work experience 2 religious awards 2 academic awards 34 act good essays

[limber cobalt]

you for cs

?

[spice sparrow]

Yeah

Oos

[limber cobalt]

ah nice me for engininerring

international

[spice sparrow]

Nice

[limber cobalt]

i really want to get here since the tuition is cheap

way cheaper than other

[reef perch]

mine are below average and I got in

though i think it’s probably because I’m paying full tuition

[limber cobalt]

for eng?

[reef perch]

yeah got into computer engineering

[limber cobalt]

nice international or oos?

[reef perch]

my school curriculum doesn’t have aps / ibs whatever

international

[limber cobalt]

nice

international too

[reef perch]

grade was 84.8% out of 100% lol

[limber cobalt]

internesting you in korea system?

[reef perch]

no, middle eastern

[limber cobalt]

ah

if i get in purdue i would likely go to ce

isn't purdue first year just anything and then you choose in the second year

[reef perch]

I’m waiting for USC and NYU right now, between all of these NYU is my top choice

[reef perch]

Yeah

[limber cobalt]

same not nyu

usc want to go there

can't lie it sooo expensive

[reef perch]

Yeaaah the tuition prices are definitely wack not to mention the COL

I’m lucky to be in a position where I don’t have to pay tuition at all

[limber cobalt]

yeah same

parents

i feel quite bad for them tbh

[reef perch]

It’s the government for me haha not my parents

[limber cobalt]

oh nice

[reef perch]

I’d definitely feel bad about my parents making them pay that much too

[limber cobalt]

bruh if i go to usc it would cost them like 400k for 4 years

which is quite crazy

[reef perch]

Jesus and they’re willing to pay it all

Actually insane

[remote lark]

i heard usc like barely gives out any money too, its so bad

[limber cobalt]

yeah like im korean so if i go to korean uni

it is barely 8k

but every us schools tuition insane

[frail echo]

UAE?

[reef perch]

Hope for the best for you all

[reef perch]

Kuwait

[frail echo]

ohhh nice

[limber cobalt]

ah please purdue get me in

[reef perch]

Were you deferred?

I’m honestly not sure how I got in lol

[frail echo]

Im in-state and i thought that would improve my chances but I guess not

[reef perch]

Damn, sorry to hear that

[remote lark]

Are the rest of the decisions coming out on friday

[reef perch]

Was part of that first wave

[limber cobalt]

i just applied rd

and i got a little fucked by this application cycle

[reef perch]

Ah they’ve been releasing decisions in waves, didn’t hear anything from them?

I also applied rd

[limber cobalt]

nah

[reef perch]

I see

Good luck to you all

[limber cobalt]

thx

[grave pulsar]

i’m below average

deferred —> still waiting result

i applied for engineering

second choice AI

i got good ecs tho

[subtle plank]

does purdue value the IB a lot

?

[oblique lance]

idk but my school has IB coursework and everyone who applied cs from my school got in

i think it had to do more with the fact that we had close to 4.0s and 1550+ sat scores

[thorn hatch]

This is very very low for any shot at CS! Good luck on getting in next batch! 😉😉 Just fucking with ya jit. Ur getting in, no shot ur not.

[spice sparrow]

Thx

[knotty jacinth]

nacho if it helps we similar stats and i made it in recently

like almost exact same stats lmfao

[rich steppe]

OH MY GOD I GOT IN CS WHAT THE HELL

[unborn salmon]

are they just rolling acceptances out or what

ppl keep getting accepted

congrats btw

[rough fog]

bro is goated with the sauce holy shit

purdue RD CS acceptance is crazy

[rich steppe]

I think so

I didn't get an email

Just logged into the portal randomly and got accepted

[limber cobalt]

wait how you even got it today

[limber cobalt]

you int?

[rich steppe]

Nope i'm oos from ny

Honestly i'm extremely surprised and super stoked considering i'm oos rd cs

Probably purdue '27, unless I get into CMU or something

[void briar]

CMU cs is

Wild

[grizzled lotus]

i feel ilke this year the acceptance rate was rly high though

[rich steppe]

yeah it's crazy

[grizzled lotus]

cuz almost everyone ik who got deferred got in

[rich steppe]

Oh interesting

For CS?

[grizzled lotus]

but still purdue cs is tough

[nocturne coral]

how does scholarship universe work?!!!

[rich steppe]

Also I think only acceptances are out so far so maybe those who got rejected/wl don't know yet

[oblique lance]

same

idk what happened

[proud tangle]

it means there will be a freshman housing crisis again lol

[spice sparrow]

I haven't heard from purdue

Not deferred

I applied reg decision

[remote forge]

so question: Does Purdue release all RD rejections together? The megathread on A2C only has acceptances. The waves seem to be International acceptances, followed by OOS acceptances. Next week might be in-state acceptances but would the friday after that be all rejections/waitlists? Nobody seems to have received a rejection in RD as of yet.

[lethal kiln]

lesgoo

[lethal kiln]

maybe, i was oos and i got in 2nd wave

[limber cobalt]

man

i feel so bad now reading all these comments

[swift gulch]

Do they send email for notification?

[loud vault]

nah oos student here with no decision yet

it is what it is, another rejection i guess

haiya...

[bronze canyon]

Congrats!

[slim briar]

GOT INTO PURDUE CS!!

[bronze canyon]

congrats!!

[slim briar]

i still can't believe it

how hard is it to get into the cs program

as oos male & asian

[bronze canyon]

idk if this would help https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/11ooho2/purdue_rd_cs_oos_acceptance_rate/

[limber cobalt]

when did you got it??

[river trout]

honestly same

i saw some stats of people getting rejected and i thought i had no chance lmao

[void briar]

I got in as an international asian male with a GPA lower than 3.6

Admissions are wild

[swift gulch]

Which major and when?

[void briar]

CS, RD, 1st wave

[rose dawn]

Has anyone got in FYE?

[limber cobalt]

i saw a few

but not me

https://tenor.com/view/cringe-gif-26494931

[subtle plank]

congratss

what was the last time you checked before seeing your acceptance

[upper leaf]

Anyone from ea got their finaid yet?

[dense forum]

yeah i got my finaid like 2 weeks ago and i was in ea

[remote lark]

congrats man, when did u hear back

[vapid swan]

Yup

[amber summit]

did you get some email?

for the people that got in did you guys get an email saying status update?

[rich steppe]

I only got it like a few hours after I got the decision!

I just randomly checked my portal and it happened to be there

[river trout]

Today ?

[rich steppe]

Yesterday

I actually found out at like 11:58pm but I think it released earlier

The acceptance letter is dated March 18

[rich steppe]

Nope

I got an acceptance letter in the email a few hours later, but no status update email

[grave pulsar]

r u oos or intl?

[rich steppe]

oos

[grave pulsar]

damn

well congrats!

[rich steppe]

tyty

Honestly i think this is just a testament to how ridiculous decisions are. I got deferred from binghamton, which was my absolute safety but accepted to a t20 cs program

[river trout]

I completely agree with you

I got rejected from the most mid state school but got into Purdue as asian intl in cs

[river spindle]

goes the other way around too, I've seen people get into uiuc honors but straight up rejected from purdue in ea

[rapid kernel]

if im international and havent received acceptance yet, im most likely not getting in right?

[frail echo]

Not true there’s still 2 other waves with acceptances

Usually only the last wave has rare acceptances so you might get in next Friday

[subtle plank]

im an intl and I still havent received a decision yet as well

[rapid kernel]

yeah but someone said the next wave is only instate and the last is all rejections and wls but yeah not losing all hope as of yet!

[frail echo]

WAIT REALLY

I’m in state so this is good

[unreal charm]

not worth it for CE or cs

[proud tangle]

yeah i’d stay under 150 for cs. and that’s only if you’re at a top 20.

and you’re CERTAIN it’s what you’ll graduate as.

[subtle plank]

i doubt that they would make a wave for just rejections and waitlists

[frail echo]

It’s not, there’s some acceptances as well in the last wave

[river trout]

purdue is slightly over that

[proud tangle]

not rlly if u can get off meal plan and get into private housin

u should be paying off your loan over summers and with a student job

[river trout]

ig

[grizzled lotus]

all the good schools are like 300k though 😭

if ur full pay

[frank jungle]

congrats!

[river trout]

not g tech

g tech is like 199k

[grizzled lotus]

well if u got into like stanford or mit u would go there over gt

and its 300k

probably worth it

[granite jewel]

how long does purdue take to send fin aid packages?

[amber summit]

For the people that gott deferred to accepted did anyone update their grades?

[river trout]

i got in for second major, comp engr tech

how hard is it to switch to COE

[subtle plank]

whats COE

[grave pulsar]

college of engineering

[subtle plank]

wait so ur first major of choice was engineering

?

[proud tangle]

lol i think youd have to transfer into first year engineering which would be... suboptimal.

[amber summit]

were you deferred before?

[river trout]

yeah

deferred ea for coe

[river trout]

yes

computer engr

[remote lark]

is it hard to transfer to fye normally, ik its hella hard to transfer cs

[subtle plank]

how competitive college of engineering is in purdue

Cuz I still havent gotten a decision yet

and I pnly applied for 1 major

Aerospace

[remote lark]

same, i also applied engineering but like purdue is like my top rn

[proud tangle]

its possible if you can trust yourself to 4.0 or close to it

you may be trying for a semester, two, three...

[subtle plank]

or 4

or 5

or 6

...

[remote lark]

so if i dont get into engeering and i get in for second choice major, would it be easier to just do like an year of the second major and change to the actual engineering program I want to do

[subtle plank]

(basically yo ass aint switching) 💀

[proud tangle]

but if you can schedule your classes in a way that they will transfer towards a fye major, you wont be set behind.

[proud tangle]

you cant transfer internally into any engineering track, only fye from my understanding

[river trout]

oh actually

i thought they had this thing

i read abt it

It may also be possible to CODO directly into an engineering major for students that have been on campus for a minimum for 1-2 semesters. Please visit the College of Engineering CODO Requirements page for major-specific CODO requirements.

[proud tangle]

https://catalog.purdue.edu/content.php?catoid=15&navoid=19105#college-of-engineering yes it looks like you can codo into any engineering major

[remote lark]

yeah thats what i saw too, but idk abt the space availability for most engineering majors there

[proud tangle]

its the most prestigious college at purdue, but if reddit testimonies mean anything, it's v possible.

[subtle plank]

boys, how competitive college of engineering is in purdue??

[river trout]

HARD

[dim agate]

can u transfer from coe to cs?

[remote lark]

its like 40% acceptance rate im pretty sure but like nobody has been rejected as far as i can tell

[unborn salmon]

no.
(it's in single digits)

[subtle plank]

finna be that first one to open the rejection list, lets goo

[river trout]

tf?

[remote lark]

dude fr, expect the worst so u can never be dissapointed

[river trout]

its like 25 and hella ppl have been rejected

[subtle plank]

if anything happens, we blaming it on racism

[dim agate]

yeah i heard its around 20%

[subtle plank]

why cant they let a fellow african on the campus?

[subtle plank]

and then sue their asses

[river trout]

well maybe if youre instate then yh eah

yeah

otherwise not even close

[subtle plank]

bro aint no way, purdue is one of the T20s in engineering

[unborn salmon]

they over accepted last year i think. expect like 32-ish%

[dim agate]

yeah thats including in state

[remote lark]

wait this shit is only for in state

why tf does it not say that lmao

[subtle plank]

im intl 💀

rip boys

[clear ruin]

bruh I swear so many intls get accepted to Purdue cs and engineering

[subtle plank]

NOT ME tho

even tho I really think my application is pretty good

[subtle plank]

anyways hoping for the best

[unborn salmon]

i think that AOs have been watching march madness. not your fault

[remote lark]

Whats there to watch, they got knocked out in the first game against a bottom seed lmao

[unborn salmon]

true that lmfaoooo

[subtle plank]

like 36 on the IB diploma, very good ECs and letters of recommendation. can speak 5 languages

what else do they want

[remote lark]

i havent heard a single person who got rejected rd yet, idk if they're letting too many people in again

[thin flame]

do i have a chance at getting a full ride at purdue oos after being deferred

[subtle plank]

hell yeah bro

you got this

[thin flame]

thank u

[unborn salmon]

damn 5?

[thin flame]

wait why am i asking here

[subtle plank]

actually they finna pay you just to attend their classes

get that bag homie$$$

[subtle plank]

yeah

[thin flame]

wow i have a good chance

[subtle plank]

english,french, arabic, spanish and darija (moroccan dialect)

[thin flame]

biased coin flip on my side 😎

[subtle plank]

can you ask it for mine

[unborn salmon]

mr worldwide

[subtle plank]

chances*

[thin flame]

that is if i even get accepted

[subtle plank]

pitbull

[thin flame]

they should give me a full ride but not accept me

[thin flame]

sure

[remote lark]

nah if theres a 62% chance of a full ride, it assumes you'll get in, u got it

[amber summit]

still havent got decision bacK!!

im scared asl

[thin flame]

oof ;-;

that or harvard u choose

[subtle plank]

ey a 7 is better than nothing

lessss go boysss

[amber summit]

W

[subtle plank]

w

spam w in the chat

w

[thin flame]

i bet actually getting a full ride at purdue is prob lower than 7% 🗿

[grave pulsar]

if i got deferred for fye and didnt hear back yet, are my chances for getting in my second major, AI, slim?

[amber summit]

yeah i did

didnt hear back

[unborn salmon]

not if you do sports

[unborn salmon]

dude trust me. you do not want the AI major

[grave pulsar]

why do u say that

i wanna get in for fye

but i didnt get my decision back

most likely means i didnt get in

[amber summit]

nah

not necessarily

[grave pulsar]

aren't these next 2 waves likee all rejections?

[river trout]

how u kniow

[kind coral]

nice

cash money yall

[grave pulsar]

past couple years say that the last wave is mostly rejections and waitlist

[river trout]

rip me

[sweet elm]

can you guys view your financial aid?

[remote lark]

so is one wave next friday and the last wave the week after that?

or is everyone just getting rejected this week

[wet scaffold]

You're welcome

[frank jungle]

bro capitalized it 😫

[wet scaffold]

Indeed

[limber cobalt]

no one actually knows they guessing

however, some say next wave if got in state and the last wave is very few acceptances + reject+WL

[rough fog]

bruh whats wrong with ai 🗿

[limber cobalt]

not now

better to do cs

[unborn salmon]

"AI" is not a major

[rough fog]

it is

[unborn salmon]

esp undergrad

you literally cannot specialize cause undergrads dont know shi

[rough fog]

what if i like the funky ai

[unborn salmon]

[unborn salmon]

ds supremacy 💪💪💪

[rough fog]

data science more like beta science

[remote lark]

idk, i could be in denial but theres no way this is true. International applicants got in on Friday so it couldnt have been just out of state

[unborn salmon]

in data we trust

[limber cobalt]

i mean int got it on friday and the week before i think was oos

idk tbh

im an int so im wishing please be an acceptance

[remote lark]

The first week was def a lot of internationals according to the reddit but yeah, im oos so im also hoping that its not just in state acceptances next and then rejections

[limber cobalt]

yeah i wish the first waves was for the deferred ones

[remote lark]

same, hopefully those who didnt hear back will get in tho

[river spindle]

ideally it shouldn't matter

you might just get accepted for fye too

[lethal kiln]

2 waves till now?

or 3?

[river spindle]

3 including EA

[lethal kiln]

okay

[river spindle]

niche majors as a whole are...v iffy to say the least

at least at purdue, the ai major is more focused on the philosophy of ai rather than the technical part afaik? either ways, just a cs major + phil minor would probably be a better choice in almost every case

also true for cybersecurity/game dev/most similar majors

[rough fog]

what if i like the funky ai tho 🗿

[halcyon peak]

UC irvine vs purdue for cs

which would be better for an instate californian

just wondering

in terms of opportunities etc

[oblique lance]

i have the same decision to make as of right now

me personally i would do irvine

just because u can easily land an internship bc of the companies surrounding the uni

purdue is kind of in a bad location

[devout socket]

how do you know which location is good and which location is bad

[oblique lance]

im talking in terms of job opportunities nearby the college

[river trout]

Location doesn't matter too much for cs

Take UIUC, in the middle of nowhere

Location doesn't hurt them at all

[slow garnet]

purdue and uiuc are both in the middle of fuck all lol

[devout socket]

no I mean in general

how do you find out which locations have better internships

[slow garnet]

look on websites and talk to alumnis

[swift gulch]

Do they release decisions from Monday to Thursday?

[remote lark]

i think it’s just friday

[subtle plank]

I just emailed them about when are the regular decision coming out, this is what they replied with

[frail echo]

This week: decisions for in state applicants
Next week: RD decisions

[subtle plank]

but my question is why some people received a decision in the last two waves

like intl RD

[river trout]

Is the acceptance rate of Purdue oos cs that low this year?

I've seen so many people get in

[grave pulsar]

how certain are you about this

cuz i still didn’t get my deferred result 😭

[remote lark]

at least u got a response, they just told me to be patient and they would come out soon lol

[frail echo]

If I’m being honest I’m just guessing 💀

Don’t lose hope tho because last year there were a lot of acceptances in the second to last wave

[lavish marlin]

When are appeal results gonna come

[loud vault]

so when is oos students receiving their decision?

or i can assume im rejected

[dusty cipher]

I’m oos cs and I received mine last week

[thin flame]

prob this friday

[slim briar]

is there any way you can see your financial aid package i can't seem to find where that is

[slim briar]

i thought oos already received decisions

next friday is instate right

[knotty jacinth]

same

[slim briar]

also are all the available times to visit full

bruh

[knotty jacinth]

they said will come out within 3 weeks of decision

[limber cobalt]

would international student reviev it this friday or should i wait until the last wave

what you guys think

nah rd

yeah i think its bc i took a gap year

[oblique lance]

same

did u get in

[loud vault]

No not me I was also deferred

[limber cobalt]

any int student didnt got their decsiion for rd

[dusty cipher]

Yes

[subtle plank]

here broski

[oblique lance]

i did too i think last week was just cs acceptances from what im seeing

[wooden moth]

some engineering too

[remote lark]

so maybe the waves are based on competitive majors ig, maybe the next wave is for less competitive majors compared to cs

so maybe the rest of fye or like finance acceptances will be on friday

[fluid belfry]

Then did ppl who didn’t get decision yet for cs get rejected?

I got deferred early for cs but still no decision

[unborn salmon]

Any chance it might be region based?

[quaint gust]

could be random

doubt its region based

[unborn salmon]

Faq

[quaint gust]

friend of mine got into purdue in one of the first waves

[unborn salmon]

Then I’m rejected?

[quaint gust]

idk lol

worried abt myself too

[oblique lance]

i have no idea

i wont make any predictions bc im just an applicant

[remote lark]

yeah its def not region based

I doubt they would group it by oos and in state cuz theres a lot more oos applicants compared to in state so then the in state wave would be a much smaller wave

[unborn salmon]

That’s not what region based is

But I get what you mean

[remote lark]

no ik what region based is, i just doubt that the grouping of the waves would be oos and then only an in state wave

like the size of the wave would be a lot different

[slim briar]

aren't all the acceptance waves over now?

for oos

someone said on channel idk if true

[remote lark]

i hope not, im oos and i havent heard back so

ig im also trying to justify why its not all oos acceptances released yet

[slim briar]

oh i got my decision and im oos

some others weren't sure so idk

id say this friday is the last wave for oos

and everything else is waitlist/reject

[remote lark]

yeah, i assume last wave of acceptances are this friday and its prolly not only in state kids cuz ik some in state people who got in

[unborn salmon]

Bro why do y’all keep limiting the time range. We still have two more waves left

[granite jewel]

Last week me and every1 else ik in Cali got our decisions

it could very well be region

[remote lark]

isnt the last wave mainly for rejections and waitlists with very few acceptances

[granite jewel]

whether thats state based or j OOS/IS idk

[unborn salmon]

That’s what I’m thinking

[granite jewel]

and guys

there's 11 days left

doesn't make sense to keep speculating wave drops anymore

just assume its the 31st and wait it out

[unborn salmon]

No. And this year is verrrrry different from all others

One of a kind

[granite jewel]

check every fri at 2:15 pst if you're bored

i literally forgot abt purdue

[remote lark]

wait fr? I saw that on some random forum a while ago

[granite jewel]

then one of my friends told me to check my portal and i saw my decision

[unborn salmon]

? Can you clarify

Oh yeah. Don’t trust most of what ppl say. It’s gonna be 100% speculation until AOs post decisions

[slim briar]

last date is technically march 30th so technically anything can happen till that point

but this is all speculation

[remote lark]

i saw smth that said historically the last wave was for only rejections and waitlists and its really rare to get in during that wave

[unborn salmon]

Yeah but looking at deferral rates, application numbers, and etc, extrapolations from previous trends prolly doesn’t hold. Could but 🤷

Who knows what they have in mind

[remote lark]

I hope its not true, then we have 2 waves to look forward to lol

I hope the AOs just release this friday tho

[unborn salmon]

The only concern is that they already filled up most of their seats

[remote lark]

yeah but we cant be sure of that either, how do u know most of their seats are filled

just because everyone so far has gotten in doesnt mean that most of the seats are filled

[late roost]

When's decision coming?

[dusty cipher]

they've been rolling, some people have gotten theirs back already

[late roost]

oh they are rollingh

[limber cobalt]

yeah they rolling but reading all these comments i feel tragic since I am an international student applying eng

[late roost]

same man

wait

tldr

can you explain @limber cobalt what they are talking about?

[limber cobalt]

they saying there were 2 waves first one was for int student second for oos and all defered ea students

unfortunatly there was no rejection meaning that there might not be much seats left for acceptances

and the general trend was last wave would mainly be wl and rejection

some say this isn't right since the trend kind of broke? but idk we just need to wait tbh

[late roost]

i am intl oos too

that sucks ngl

purdue rej would hurt

[limber cobalt]

yep

[hearty bramble]

if you get in you get in

if you don't you don't

not like you can change anything at this point

no point stressing yourself out for no reason

[late roost]

thanks for the motivation

helped a lot

[hearty bramble]

what major?

[limber cobalt]

i took a gap year without any reason

[hearty bramble]

undecided to fye is viable for engineering

[limber cobalt]

seems like it is hurting my app

[slow garnet]

whats the ranking for purdue cs?

[torn vessel]

t15

[quaint gust]

20

[slow garnet]

thanks

[daring pasture]

What’s the acceptance rate for Purdue aerospace engineering

[river spindle]

fye as a whole has ~35% apparently

highly doubt that figure though, has to be like a third of that tbh

[river trout]

ikr

seen so many rejections for engineering overall

forget about cs

[remote lark]

wait fr, so far i’ve only heard of people who got in

[river trout]

well their ea had a buncha rejections

and the rejections havent come yet

not sure tho

but purdue oos acceptance rate has been abysmal this year

[wooden moth]

lovely

[remote lark]

oh really, i thought everyone got deferred, not rejected

and i thought everyone oos was getting in during regular decision

[frail echo]

Most people got rejected

For CS

[river trout]

I'm guessing a lot of people (including me) have underestimated purdues cs selectivity

At the end of the day it's still a T20 program

[remote lark]

oh really, thats crazy, ik cs acceptances are really low but i feel like fye acceptances should be higher

[hollow yarrow]

NOT @paper bluffeerparker

[unborn salmon]

I thought they didn’t reject many ppl for EA

I mean for CS

[remote lark]

yeah, it felt like people either got in or deferred

[halcyon peak]

POV usc

[dusty cipher]

+umich

[slim briar]

is cs harder than eng

and like i was reading online abt a proposal to move cs to school of engineering

will that be happening anytime soon would be lit fr

[unborn salmon]

No it wouldn’t

Bc of the stupid extra filler courses

That eng department stuffs

You would have to go to school for five years

[granite jewel]

has nayone here tried to fill out the housing app?

when I try to hit my year it just refreshes the page

im guessing its because of the ID requirement but the deadline for that is literally a month after the housing deadline, and I really don't want to submit a photo rn

[slim briar]

also

when is scholarship coming out

[granite jewel]

also

when finaid

[upper leaf]

I got my finaid a couple weeks ago but that was for ea but they like didn’t give me anything so..?

[subtle plank]

same

[subtle plank]

u take the IB?

[granite jewel]

shi well i need loans and fws at minimum

i can barely afford it rn but it becomes p doable after that's deducted

and also have oyu tried doing the housing app

[limber cobalt]

yeah

hbu

wait you in africa?

[lavish marlin]

When appeals comin out

[white elk]

usually after decisions r over - they look at if there r spots leftover n decide

[oblique lance]

uci in state or purdue oos for cs

costs are very similar

im leaning towards uci rn

[dusty cipher]

purdue cs is very good

[oblique lance]

uci's ranking is very similar

[limber cobalt]

you want a better social life then uci

[limber cobalt]

but idk it your personal preference for those two

honestly if your in state uci i would chose uci

[frail echo]

Go for the in state option

[amber summit]

im not 100% sure but i think UCI has better placement that purdue

Not sure so don’t take my word

[slim briar]

wb purdue oos vs uci oos?

[slim briar]

no it doesn't checkhttps://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/yrhu3m/us_news_2023_ranking_of_best_undergraduate/

[oblique lance]

rankings are different than placement

[river trout]

Purdue cs has around 100 percent placement

The salaries aren't too different

[unborn salmon]

US news 💀

[grizzled lotus]

purdue easily

cheaper and better

[slim briar]

what's the diff and is higher placement ranking better?

[remote lark]

ranking is just like how good the school is but placement is like percent of kids who get a job out of college so higher placement is definitely better

[unborn salmon]

well youre gonna get a L3 job anyways. the only reason UCI is higher is bc of cali salary which you get taxed heavily on anyways

so technically purdue is better

[fossil ivy]

ayo when the last wave comin out

[vocal kraken]

maybe wait a day or two

that happened with me too while I trying but it resolved itself within 2 days

also, id isn't required to sign the contract

[oblique lance]

whats an L3 job

[unborn salmon]

Entry swe position

Purdue might be in the middle of nowhere but they have good career fair and connections

[granite jewel]

kk, got it

btw

for the fin aid portal did u see this for a while too?

it went from saying they received my fafsa to thois

[vocal kraken]

I'm int'l, so I don't see fin aid

[granite jewel]

ah ic

[dense forum]

it let me do it a fee days after committing

[dense forum]

yeah i saw my finaid a bit later after that

[swift gulch]

Do you have a link?

[vocal kraken]

go to https://wl.mypurdue.purdue.edu/web/portal/financial-aid and click "Financial Aid Status"

[limber cobalt]

is this portal astrology or what

[vocal kraken]

nah, that portal requires you to have set up a purdue account

[limber cobalt]

so its for admitted students

[vocal kraken]

yes

[river spindle]

a2c mods when they see any mention of a portal ☠️

[limber cobalt]

hahahaha

you also took gap year?

[river spindle]

yep

[limber cobalt]

how did decisions go

i also took gap year

and i got totally fucked by most schools especially uc's

[river spindle]

still waiting on most decisions. got into purdue, imperial college london and a few safeties till now

[limber cobalt]

well that good

i got to 2 safety but no target or reaches....

[daring pasture]

How would one know if they got a scholarship from Purdue ?

[slim briar]

also what is the acceptance rate oos for cs just curious if there are stats

[real crane]

how good is economics at purude

i got in for that

[lavish marlin]

Do I have a chance if I appealed rejection from CS and changed majors to data science

[upper leaf]

They put it in your acceptance letter

[daring pasture]

right cool, thanks for letting me know

[swift gulch]

What is my username and password?

[slim briar]

could you send a screen pic of how it looks?

[oblique lance]

doesnt hurt to try

[vocal kraken]

that portal is for admitted students only

you set up your purdue account with the puid included in your acceptance letter

[sweet elm]

I don’t have a financial aid section 😭

[river trout]

Does any1 know if the polytechnic college is any good?

[frank jungle]

from what ive heard

its good for more technical work almost like a trade school

but it has generally worse education than the engineering school

[upper leaf]

I didn’t get a scholarship so this is how my friends looked

[slim briar]

dang

that guy got eng + presidents scholarship

[slim briar]

is that like less that 1% to get?

[upper leaf]

I mean idk the numbers but my friend hasn’t gotten rejected from any colleges and they have a super competitive application

[frail echo]

Hopefully one more day guys 🤞

[silent ferry]

Hi, in the purdue portal my decision shows decided but i cant see the actual decision?

can someone tell me what this could mean?

[unborn salmon]

you were either accepted, waitlisted, or rejected. Hope this helps

[silent ferry]

yes but where can i see the decision??

no email received yet

[unborn salmon]

Soon. In your near future

[silent ferry]

Thanks, very helpful😐

[dense forum]

youll likely be able to see your decision tomorrow around 5pm est

[silent ferry]

Thanks a lot for that info!

[river trout]

mine is still complete rip

[granite jewel]

this mean no iad?

aid*

[quaint gust]

is the decided in white

[pseudo meadow]

Any deferred people who haven’t gotten their decision??

[silent ferry]

No it's in black right below completed status

[quaint gust]

ah yeah makes sense
when it turns white it means your decision has come

[silent ferry]

Ohh, but it showed decision awaited day before

And today it showed decided

Text changed

[quaint gust]

Hm that im not sure about

Havent seen that

before

[silent ferry]

Oh well, maybe I will receive it by tomorrow

Not much longer

[celest surge]

anyone know when deferrals are coming out

[river trout]

i was deferred and got last week

[river trout]

I heard a lot of people got their decisions on the 17th iirc

When we thinking deferrals coming out

[granite jewel]

i applied RD OOS CS got it onf riday

don't want to be a downer but considering how they've only released acceptances thus far

dont be too confident if you're consistently not in the waves

[grave pulsar]

did some people just get results?

oh wait that’s lafayette college they were mentioning nvm

[analog axle]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/789336009929523242/1088555654815428719/IMG_1075.png

is this what ur portal looks like for those who havent received their decision

[river trout]

yes

[amber summit]

for the people who got deferred was there a specific date that you need to submit your LOCI

because my portal does not look like that and I got deferred

mine still looks like this

💀

im done for

[celest surge]

yea mine looks exactly like that

i was deferred too

[amber summit]

UHHH

did u submit your loci?

if so when

[celest surge]

mhmm

like in feb

[amber summit]

im scared asl 💀

[celest surge]

yea prolly reject :')

[amber summit]

bc when I called purdue why i got deferred the admission officer said my application was perfect just not enough out of state seats or smt

hopefully i get in

idkk

[dusty cipher]

Not trying to be too much a downer or anything but they prob say that to everyone tbh

[amber summit]

probably

but im p sure i shouldve gotten in for atleast my second major

i have a 3.9 UW , 1490, Yale professor LOR, 3 research positions (one with yale), 2 internships, a legit non profit, eagle scout and more

i dont know tho

i got into my dream school UDub so im happy with that

[river trout]

yeah im getting rejected 💀

[amber summit]

but i just wanna get into Purdue

[dusty cipher]

What major

[amber summit]

nah maybe i just fucked my essays but im p sure i had a good essay

[river trout]

the thing about purdue is i would actually go there if admitted and im OOS CS

[amber summit]

my first choice was Data Science and then second choice was DATA in Polytechnic

im p confident i shouldve made it for DATA in polytechnic

[river trout]

i did CS first choice then Cybersecurity in Polytechnic

apparently polytechnic has a higher admissions rate and Cybersecurity isnt that bad either

[analog axle]

When is purdue gonna be out

[unborn salmon]

did you give a building to yale or smthing

like wtf you're so stacked

[clear ruin]

what major?

[grave pulsar]

mine looks like that too

[amber summit]

lmao i just emailed

[amber summit]

data science and then DATA as second

[clear ruin]

unlucky bro… you deserved it seriously. they might have been telling the truth about the OOS thing and not having enough seats

[remote lark]

hopefully tomorrow

[compact lynx]

if ur portal changes to complete

ur gna get it tom

[amber summit]

ty i appreciate it. i already got into my dream school UDub for CS OOS. I just wanna get into purdue. I’m little confused on how I didn’t get any decision back, I’m deferred so atleast they should give me decision of getting rejected. Maybe some error? Not sure gonna call tmrw

[compact lynx]

what does ur portal look like

[analog axle]

mine been like that since forever

lol

[kind coral]

pen15

sup yall

[compact lynx]

u prolly applied regular then

[kind coral]

how are rd decisions going

[analog axle]

i did

[compact lynx]

yea

the portal shit only works for deferred applicants

[analog axle]

rd coming out tmr maybe?

[compact lynx]

possibility

i think they r releasing in waves of acceptances and then the 31st will be rejections

(just a theory)

[oblique lance]

best of luck to everyone getting their decision tmrw

[analog axle]

i kinda dont care about purdue as much anymore since i already got into UCSD

and indianna isnt ideal place to live for 4 yrs'

[distant coyote]

When on earth are they coming outtt

Still no answer and portal is saying complete in whiteeee

My godd

[unborn salmon]

imagine they make us wait and send a fat rejection wave on the 31st

[compact lynx]

deferred or regular

[distant coyote]

Rd

[compact lynx]

oh then idk

if ur accepted i think ur gna get it tom

[distant coyote]

O damn ok thank ya

[frail echo]

For those accepted, did your portal turn to “complete” a day before? I remember it was like a few hours before

[oblique lance]

yes

[clear ruin]

bruh holy shit lol. thats fucking wild the acceptance rate is like 3 percent lol congrats

[frail echo]

Damn mine still says decided

[oblique lance]

oh i checked the day of

my bad

i checked the portal around 5 hours b4

[frail echo]

Ohhh okay

[amber summit]

thanks bro!

[compact lynx]

i think day of

idek tbh

[peak hollow]

wot is Purdue

y is Purdue

[slim briar]

how do u check this

ive registered with my boiler ID but i don't know how to get access to fin aid

[granite jewel]

mypurdue

[upper leaf]

There should be a new student checklist and a link to view your financial aid

[slim briar]

oh ok

is it like 45k+ for everyone who didn't get scholarship?

and are oos

i thought it was 40k

[glass rapids]

is another wave coming out tonihgt?

[upper leaf]

Ya mine is like 40k😭

[river trout]

what time is the next wave

[compact lynx]

5est

5pm est**

[real skiff]

Hey guys I got deferred ea and my portal still says decided January 13. Does that mean that I probably didn’t get in since everyone else still says complete

[quaint gust]

You still have time until the 31st to get a final decision so dw

it'll either come today or the 31st

[pale creek]

Same here

[urban patrol]

Got deferred early
Didn't submit a LOCI
Got in today lol

[remote lark]

wait, the wave already came out?

my thing still says complete

[limber cobalt]

wait

tf

it came out?

[river trout]

mine is still complete as wlel

[remote lark]

i thought its supposed to come out around like 5

[lethal kiln]

check the date it was last updated

[urban patrol]

Idk it came out for me

[remote lark]

are u oos

[dense forum]

thats so weird tho every other time they came out around 5est

[thin flame]

we might be in the next wave for those of u that still say decided

cuz rd decision last date is 3/31 which is next friday

i just hope it’s not a rejection/wait list wave :(

[urban patrol]

Yes

[frail echo]

Looks like no decision today as well 😕

[remote lark]

wait why, don’t most decisions come out at 5

[fervent jolt]

my friend got in this morning

I think they had a small wave of acceptances

mines still says decided not sure what that means

[remote lark]

bruh mine says completed

[compact lynx]

defer?

[grave pulsar]

mine still says decided too 😭 (deferred)

[thin flame]

same

[scarlet oxide]

Same here

[grave pulsar]

does this mean our decision isnt coming out today?

[frail echo]

Yeah

[grave pulsar]

fun

[vague wing]

Wait till 5pm est it should drop around then

[remote lark]

rd

[real skiff]

20 more minutes…

[lavish marlin]

Y’all got this

[scarlet oxide]

Not never

Necessarily*

Just wait

[real skiff]

So defer ea people whose application still says decided probably isn’t coming today?

[slim briar]

no

it changed for me later

so it can change for some ppl too

[scarlet oxide]

yea

some people’s portal didn’t change at all

before they were accepted

[quaint gust]

No decision yet

Anyone got a decision?

[scarlet oxide]

Not yet

1 more min till we find out

[slim briar]

it'll come in a min

[quaint gust]

Must be 31st then

[scarlet oxide]

damnit

[river spindle]

you ain't lie

[frail echo]

Anyone decision?

[river spindle]

wait fr, nothing for me yet

[quaint gust]

Nope
Nothing

[scarlet oxide]

it took a cuople minutes extra last time

is it still decided for ppl

[loud vault]

yes

[slim briar]

for deferred right?

[scarlet oxide]

ahhhhhhh

[slim briar]

cuz when i was deferred it came in a few minutes

like 5=10 minutes after

[loud vault]

yes

[vague wing]

Fine we'll wait ig
