Purdue University (2023-2024)

[analog sorrel]

only for you

[round lantern]

essentially they are

they're test expected

but 97% of those who got in had test scores

so unless u have a very exceptional case u should submit

[pine rain]

ah

[pine rain]

breh

[pine rain]

ty

[languid widget]

rd?

[pine rain]

yeah

[languid widget]

i see

[pine rain]

yes

[analog sorrel]

?

[lament stone]

Did anyone get into Purdue cs?

[sour igloo]

my friend did

[pine cloak]

Yuh

[dim marsh]

Yep

Many did here

[open axle]

i did

[lavish cloak]

i did

[opaque pumice]

yes

[somber yew]

i did

[hearty aurora]

i did too, i’m wondering what the OOS CS admit rate was

[tired leaf]

What is OOS

[hearty aurora]

out of state

[lament stone]

what're like the average stats of people who got in for cs

[bright urchin]

u can c the data from last year online i believe

as for this year its not out yet obv]

[visual igloo]

when my deferred application gets reseen is the whole application getting reviewed like can i assume they "know" my application?

like can i casually talk abt me being in the ib diploma in my lcoi thinking they alr know im ib?

[balmy flint]

prolly like 4.4+ gpa 1500 ish sat

[plucky zodiac]

Wow

[bright urchin]

heres the average stats for cs last year

[balmy flint]

do yk where to see the engineering

[bright urchin]

just google purdue engineering stats or smth its on their website

[unique mesa]

thats not OOS

in state is like 50% cs admission lol

[bright urchin]

thats overall

[unique mesa]

yeah the stats are crazy tho ngl

[bright urchin]

oos and in state

[unique mesa]

yeah in state 50%

oos is 10-15%

[bright urchin]

oh yeah i see what u mean now

[unique mesa]

check above someone posted screenshot

[bright urchin]

ye mb

[unique mesa]

like of Ao email

that person said 10-15%

[bright urchin]

yeah im surprised tbh

everyone ik got in and we're oos

some had a lot lower than the sat range

[unique mesa]

cuz they accept most ppl EA for OOS

and most people you probably know are smart 🙂

[bright urchin]

lollll

[storm scarab]

where

[bright urchin]

a while ago

[storm scarab]

bruh

[hoary salmon]

is anyone else able to request a location change in the location/major change request form

only major request pops up for me

[unique mesa]

found it

[hearty aurora]

source on this 10-15% acceptance rate stat for purdue OOS cs?

[raven shoal]

I love Purdue dude

[storm scarab]

Yea but can u send a link to a post in this channel

Please cite your sources ! 🤓

this?

[spark wind]

i didnt know flight was such a big industry for purdue

[spark wind]

doesnt indicate OOS vs IS rates

[stray quiver]

can you apply for housing without being committed

[civic dragon]

No

[lavish cloak]

😔

yk i did not know purdues campus actually looked this nice

i envisioned a bunch of prison buildings ngl

windsor my beloved

[lavish cloak]

thats much better than i expected

Ws

[silk crown]

theres a cool drone tour video on youtube, its rly pretty

[latent pendant]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BWmqMNMojw

PURDUE AD PRODUCTION VALUE GOES CRAZY

holy shit

[pine egret]

is there a benefit to committing sooner like housing wise or anything? i know housing has been a huge issue here

[fervent scaffold]

omg gorg

[latent pendant]

i am not 100% sure but from what i remember reading april 15 is the priority deadline for housing

[pine egret]

so anything before then is all equal?

[latent pendant]

im not sure

[wet barn]

yes

you're guaranteed housing no matter what tbh

i know people who completely missed the housing deadline (not priority, but the hard deadline), and still got decent rooms

[pine egret]

I thought there was a massive housing crisis?

[wet barn]

not for incoming freshmen

only for current students who want to stay in dorms after freshmen year

[pine egret]

Ah ok

[civic dragon]

IS THIS PURDUE

OMG!!!!!

[unique mesa]

scroll up ull find it

im not scroling back again but its 100% here u just gotta look carefully its a screenshot of an AO saying its 10-15%

you can ask everyone else here they know it if u want to know it for urself so bad then scroll

[lavish cloak]

i scrolled and didnt find it ngl lmao

[abstract cloud]

where is it

[abstract cloud]

found it

[languid widget]

Is that from this yr

[abstract cloud]

nah

EA acceptances are always significantly highe ranyways

[void bramble]

fr

[storm scarab]

W thanks

[languid widget]

i assume cs was like 20 for oos but could be wrong

[abstract cloud]

for EA possibly, overall def not

[languid widget]

yeah prob lower overall oos

cus RD is a headache i can assume

[abstract cloud]

ik someone who got deferred cmu who also got deferred purdue cs but its mad random

[languid widget]

is getting deferred cmu hard or what

[abstract cloud]

idk

[languid widget]

shrug

[sharp dock]

Is WL or Indianapolis better?

[abstract cloud]

WL but i heard indianapolis offers the same exact degree

[languid widget]

WL

[raven shoal]

WL by far

[sharp dock]

I guess there is no debate on which is better 💀

Only 1 right answer 😂

Did scholarships come out?

I get an error when I go the financial aid page...

[hearty aurora]

not insanely hard to get cmu deferred a good number of people get it

[void bramble]

cmu trivial zzz

[languid widget]

i c

[bronze canopy]

do most of the spots fill up EA?

[latent pendant]

yes

[sullen carbon]

is it worth applying to departmental scholarships

[raven shoal]

Idk

[golden kite]

is there still a way to apply for the honors college? I got in ea but didn't apply for it on common app

[analog sorrel]

believe there will be a chance after freshman year tho I hear chances are pretty low

[golden kite]

so i can't apply for first-year honors anymore right

[latent pendant]

not as of now. u can only apply once you enroll

[fervent scaffold]

yeah it was in the acceptance letter

[pine cloak]

It's useless after first. year

[stray quiver]

wdym?

[latent pendant]

i think first year u get good honors housings and other than that honors is kinda pointless

[spark wind]

as a general rule of thumb, for every college, the main campus is better than the satellite campuses

i could be wrong but i have not seen a college that has disproved that theory

umd, umich, purdue, etc. you could say that nyu has good campuses (e.g abu dhabi) but thats like international and im not counting those

[pine cloak]

Like the only benefit is housing

Other than that you have to do more work for nothing

Being in HC won't really help you graduate with honors if you're in to that

[unique tapir]

yeah

like the extra classes are easy but

supposedly its supposed to help make getting research easier but i cannot confirm that

[feral sapphire]

when do i submit my loci

how long do i generally have

2 weeks or less ?

[boreal linden]

Is there a due date for it?

I was not aware of that

[wind galleon]

I thought it was rolling

[pine egret]

Are learning communities competitive to get into?

For engineering specifically

[raven shoal]

is data mine lc hard to get into?

[cosmic barn]

I'm trying to apply for a scholarship at Purdue and the whole thing is just so confusing. Like are there essays or something? I can't find anything.

[rapid schooner]

What is this school good at other than engineering and CS

[spark wind]

pilot 🧑‍✈️

also biomed

[pine cloak]

Everything

[raven shoal]

@pine cloak

[raven shoal]

Really

[pine cloak]

PURDUE IS #1

[pine cloak]

Not rly

[rapid schooner]

Like biomed science

[rapid schooner]

Even humanities

[spark wind]

biomed engineering from what i know

tay could probably fact check

[unique tapir]

the school is very strong in STEM disciplines as a whole & flight

humanities i cant speak on, but ive had a good experience with my humanities classes thus far

the professors seem like they care much more lol

(i ❤️ psychology)

[raven shoal]

where

[manic egret]

how hard is purdue AI (college of science) to get into

for EA

as hard as CS/engineering?

[pine cloak]

AI, BS is literally just CS

[manic egret]

Okay cool

Thanks

[raven shoal]

does the campus have a serene vibe

[pine cloak]

The engineering mall does

[raven shoal]

do yk any business studets

[bronze dew]

why is it called engineering "mall"

[stray quiver]

its diff

bc u take more ai based courses

but yeah it was made from the bs cs program

so theyre very similar

[stray quiver]

nobody rly knows bc its the second year that the bs in ai exists

but id assume its as hard as cs bc ai is rly sought after

[manic egret]

Interesting

Makes sense

[stray quiver]

ya

[stray quiver]

did you apply?

[manic egret]

Yeah I got in so i was just wondering

[stray quiver]

nice! me too!

[manic egret]

Ayee fire

[stray quiver]

r u in state?

[manic egret]

out of state

Wbu

[stray quiver]

same im in cali

[manic egret]

Wordd

[manic egret]

What were ur stats

[analog sorrel]

another cali student 👀

congrats on both of ur admissions

[stray quiver]

3.89 uw, 1540 sat, AI, CS, and Business ECs

wbu?

[manic egret]

3.77 uw 1530 sat & same ec's

so lowk rlly similar

[stray quiver]

nicee

[stray quiver]

thank u! r u from cali too?

[analog sorrel]

yep socal

[feral sapphire]

na

much easier

[stray quiver]

how do yk

[undone geode]

def not that much easier but it is a bit easier from what i see online but tbh hard to tell since it's new

[pine rain]

I didn't submit my sat score when I submitted my application because I didn't realize you could. I submitted it like a day later in the portal room but I emailed them and they said they immediately review your application so I'm scared they might not have gotten it. Why do you guys think?

[native tartan]

did you not already get a decision?

[pine rain]

regular decision

[native tartan]

oh, i'm not sure how that works sorry

[pine rain]

oh okay

[balmy flint]

they should have a date for supporting materials

most colleges do and as long as u submit them before, they will take it into acount

[pine rain]

they don't

their email was like everything submtited after won't be allowed or smth but it might go in

[summer umbra]

hey guys

what is the deadline for the LOCI?

[dapper sorrel]

same question here. please ping me if anyone knows

[lilac topaz]

i’m pretty sure there isn’t one, but definitely get it in as soon as possible unless you have a good reason to turn it in later

[summer umbra]

i wanna win a few robotic comps before i do

[fervent scaffold]

purdue does rolling decisions for non ea right?

[civic dragon]

Pretty sure they don’t

[stoic mulch]

They don’t

[wet barn]

it's weird

they technically release them in waves every friday

but idt i've ever seen anyone get in after the first or second waves (first and second fridays of march)

all the rejections then come out in end of march, like 2-3 weeks after the acceptances

[hasty ruin]

did anyone else get an email with the purdue future engineers discord server

the invite link they gave doesnt work

[open axle]

can I apply for scholarships for purdue?

[fervent scaffold]

ohhhh

[opaque pumice]

late response but i sent that email during the summer

[fervent scaffold]

can I get one of the smaller scholarships like the band scholarship on top of presidential?

[civic dragon]

guys, for the 'change major' option

can i try switching from fye to cs?

[sour lynx]

Does Purdue send acceptance packages?

I still haven't gotten anything

[languid widget]

i see

[analog sorrel]

I believe so, comes with stickers etc

[pine cloak]

They'll send a couple of stickers

[somber yew]

isnt cs rly competitive to switch into

[storm scarab]

Yup

[balmy flint]

i doubt its that hard

i got into fye and my stats were meh

[native tartan]

but ea and rd is different

purdue prefers ea a lot doesn’t it?

[balmy flint]

maybe

i was also oos tho

[bronze canopy]

fye?

what were your stats?

[feral sapphire]

can some1 read my loci

also do we have to submit supp materials the same time as the loci

[alpine belfry]

no

[feral sapphire]

we dont?

[balmy flint]

4.6 weighted, 3.9 unweighted, 1500 ish sat, ecs and essays were meh, 12 ap, 13 dual? i think i cant remember

i took around 13 APs and 12 Dual Enrollment but i didn't send in any scores

nothing on my application was about engineering at all either so idk

[dense frost]

That's not meh

Purdue totally values grades/SAT/course rigor over ecs, no?

[balmy flint]

im manifesting a unc chapel hill acceptance

[fervent scaffold]

purdue values essays a decent bit

lot of people with good stats meh essays got deferred

[balmy flint]

well ik my essays were bad

i cried over them for 2 months

[fervent scaffold]

did you get in

[balmy flint]

yes

bro i doubt essays matter

i wrote my why major essay on computer science

when i applied as computer engineering

[dense frost]

Friend got in with like 4 ecs and a pretty mid essay. Had amazing grades + SAT score though

Kinda shows what they value

[fervent scaffold]

bro bunches of people with good stats got deferred/outright rejected

[balmy flint]

💀

pls they were all abuot CS

i didnt know they were two areas of diff majors

😭

[feral sapphire]

bro you puta cs course

are you real blud

[balmy flint]

so im saying

??? i doubt essays matter

[bright urchin]

😂

i guess theyre similar enough

[balmy flint]

yeah idk

LOL

[pine cloak]

373 LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[bright urchin]

u can also take cs classes as a compe major

[pine cloak]

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[balmy flint]

please bro i dont even know how i got in

[pine cloak]

Sure...

[balmy flint]

i literally wrote the whole essay wrong

😭

[bright urchin]

lol ik ppl who put grad classes and still got in 🤷‍♀️

[pine cloak]

Nah it's just that 373 is a shit class

[balmy flint]

oh i did that with a few colleges

but i kinda meant for it to show continued interest

i wanted to pursue a masters with that institution after bachelors i dunno

[balmy flint]

😂

[bronze canopy]

Those are NOT meh stats 😭😭😭😭😭

[bronze canopy]

i’m pretty sure they care about stats more than ECs

[dense frost]

Yeah thats what I was saying

[wet barn]

a one-off case doesn't say anything about what they value

but yeah i agree that they care about stats a lot 😭

[dense frost]

Mmm yeah yeah just giving an example..

[unique mesa]

lmaooo

u wrote all about CS but u applied to COE

honestly Purdue's fault for being really arrogant and not giving a curiculum of CS in engineering

but yeah just say u wanted computer science u can still be in engineering tho

cs 373 is i think only computer science course

[bronze dew]

does purdue send anything physical for acceptance

[hearty aurora]

i’m wondering this too. last i checked online you just get a boring official letter. did anyone get one yet?

[unique tapir]

i believe they do, i remember getting something last year

sheet of stickers and a physical letter iirc

[bronze dew]

better than nothing lol

[silk crown]

i really want stickers but i havent gotten anything in the mail yet

[spark wind]

not for internationals i presume?

[unique tapir]

ive got no idea, sorry 😭

[spark wind]

i want train stickers >:(

[olive roost]

amazon.com

[wet barn]

nope

I think they gave out stickers at the international admitted student events though

[spark wind]

I MISSED THE STICKERS >:((

I got mine in March even tho I got in EA

[silk crown]

ohhhh ok, thanks!

[cosmic barn]

How do you apply for a scholarship?

[olive roost]

How easy is it to claim in state tuition?

What if I were to go independent from my parents, have a job in Indiana, lease an apartment, get a DL, pay taxes…

Would I be elegible after 12 months?

[hearty aurora]

has anyone got official acceptance letters in the mail yet?

[raven shoal]

No

[polar siren]

Not yet

[opaque pumice]

anyone get honors college email? i got waitlisted apparently

[void comet]

yeah i did

[undone geode]

same

[placid sluice]

same

[heavy burrow]

i was way too lazy to write more essays

[atomic helm]

Can you transfer from Purdue Indianapolis to Purdue West Lafayette or something like that?

[eternal ember]

DW you're fine probably

AOs usually understand that much

[pine rain]

i hope so

ty

[lucid hull]

yep, well, you can try to. one of my friends who got into Purdue Indy for EE applied to transfer to WL for FYE through a Change Major/Location thing on his portal

you do need to write an essay though explaining why you wish to change your major/location

[atomic helm]

ah ok tks

[half tapir]

yoo

[hoary spear]

I need help. So far, I've gotten into Purdue and University of Maryland for CS, both ranked 18 according to us news. Today, I got my first rejections from GeorgiaTech and UIUC. I'm just super worried I won't get into a better college considering I didn't get into those 2, even though I spent so much time on my applications. I need to cope, and legit anything y'all say could help

[abstract cloud]

Why are you worried? You tried your hardest, got into a top 20, while many people dream to even go to college.

Top 20's for CS are hella selective, instead of worrying just be happy

@hoary spear

[hoary spear]

Yeah but idk I always thought I could get into Purdue so when I got my acceptance, I was happy but also sorta prepared for it and I just wanna do better

[abstract cloud]

Purdue is not a target out of state for cs 😭

its 10-15 percent buddy, for EA its just easier

[raven shoal]

Don’t buddy him

Biggest bro

[hoary spear]

Ye but it's also base top 20

[abstract cloud]

wot 😭

[abstract cloud]

😭 no offense but this sounds kinda pretentious 😭 "base top 20" Top 20 at cs is MAD competitive man

and its only not a top 10 because it falls behind in AI research, either way if your sad about going to a top 20 then you set yourself up for future failure either way

[hoary spear]

Nono it's not that I'm saf

Ik my future will be good and that I did well

It's just getting rejection letters is so damn unmotivating

I still have to hear from 19ncolleges and now I just think Abt the bad

[abstract cloud]

dude you tried your best, ppl with amazing stats get deferred and rejected by Purdue CS OOS. Without fails you can't learn man. Life is both success and rejection.

[hoary spear]

Yeah true ig

[abstract cloud]

CS is such a compettive field virtually are the top 20s are reaches, the only "target" is madison and thas saying something 😭 Be happy man... The only downside to Purdue is that its mad rigorous while in the middle of nowhere

[hoary spear]

Yeah that's true, location kinda mid but for me I care more about the education

[abstract cloud]

Then Purdue's great. Its course rigour is crazy.

[hoary spear]

Yeah I've heard that from some friends

[sharp bobcat]

UW madison CS vs purdue cs... whats better? according to usnews wisconsn is #12 and purdue is #18 but im hearing mixed things

[half tapir]

purdue

[half tapir]

22* not 12

can someone remove the slowmode here

[sharp bobcat]

okay cool

[sharp bobcat]

where di u see that? it says 12 on my screen

[half tapir]

do u have premium

i think these are 2023 rankings

they fell by like 10 ranks in 2024

[sharp bobcat]

oh

How do i see 2024?

[half tapir]

u need premium

dm me if u want the rankings

[lavish vault]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/16lnder/us_news_2024_ranking_of_best_undergraduate/

[half tapir]

oh shi yea

its on reddit as well

[rancid cliff]

no same, past year students at stanf ucb said my profile is mad competive but i got deferred from everywhere

[summer umbra]

in my loci

can i apply to mechanical engineering instead of cs

[half tapir]

i doubt they'll even consider changing ur major just by looking at an LOCI

[summer umbra]

ngl im thinking ab just switching majors

didn't get in anywhere good for cs

just rutgers

[half tapir]

did you get deferred

from mechanical engineering

you can appeal for a second choice after your decision comes through

[summer umbra]

no

i just want to do mech enginerring for purdue now

[half tapir]

oh mb I read it wrong

so deferred from cs

yes?

[summer umbra]

yes

i got liek zero hope of getting in

[half tapir]

just appeal

after you get your decision

[dim marsh]

UMD vs Purdue for CS… need help deciding

[half tapir]

you can ask for a diff major then

[summer umbra]

okay

[half tapir]

if cost dont matter to you UMD otherwise purdue

they're neck to neck tho

[dim marsh]

Yeah probably Purdue then

[pine cloak]

Purdue

Purdue is #1

[unique tapir]

boiler up or whatever

👋

[pine cloak]

Hammer down

[unique tapir]

why do the dining halls hate us on the weekend 😔

they think that its friday and i magically dont need to eat anymore

[unique mesa]

purdue is better cuz its cheaper and there are more opportunities like data mine/vip thats not there at UMD/uw-wisc

[spark wind]

What’s data mine / vip

[unique mesa]

ways to get easy internships at acc companies

[pine egret]

Did the discord link Purdue engineering sent out in their email ever work for anyone?

[alpine belfry]

when do purdue rd decisions come out

when did last years come out

[void sluice]

no but I can send u it

there was a link somewhere else on the email

[pine egret]

Oh please do!

[void sluice]

can't invite from server itself, ill have to search it again lol

[fervent scaffold]

purdue lovesssss their admitted students lol im getting bombarded with emails

v cute tho with each passing day i like purdue more

ofc rn id choose uiuc over purdue but that cheap tuition isnt a joke

[thin kite]

whats the chance i get in after being deferred for purdue cs

[void sluice]

:3

[void sluice]

some sources say 10, others say 70

but it's purdue cs so idk

[thin kite]

ok thanks

is it better to complete the loci asap or try to get better ecs and then submit

[spark wind]

who tf is saying 70% 😭

[urban sierra]

70 wild 😭

[bronze dew]

if you get deferred, you're probably gonna be admitted to the indianapolis campus

[raven shoal]

Thats depressing

[strong snow]

Yo is anyone going to the Forge the Future event in February or am I really about to be the only one there lmao

[spark wind]

have fun forging the future alone lol

[bronze dew]

whats that

[strong snow]

Honors College accepted student event or something

[spark wind]

alright i probably shouldnt make fun of you then since i didnt even bother applying to honors ☠️

good luck over there

[strong snow]

Someone's gotta carry the boats and forge the future

[strong snow]

All good bro don't worry I found it funny

And it might be a joke but I dead ass think I'm gonna be the only person there

How many people get into Honors College for engineering anyway?

[spark wind]

someone sent a pic here with the percent of honors college people who were in CoE. maybe @unique tapir can help

[bronze dew]

same

[strong snow]

Honestly Honors seems more of a pain for engineering than anything else

[spark wind]

i feel like honors people would be a bit more intent on actually going to honors events minus the internationals

[spark wind]

LMAO

[strong snow]

Yo @spark wind you get in for engineering?

[spark wind]

nope CS

non-honors

[strong snow]

We'll see, I'm sure there will be someone else there

[strong snow]

Nice nice. Is Purdue University your top choice?

[spark wind]

https://tenor.com/view/gone-empty-alone-gif-13310087

[spark wind]

nooot really but its a solid choice. im hoping for better aid/costs from other schools but Purdue is still a rly solid choice

[strong snow]

Well those who forge the future often do so alone and unappreciated by the plebians around them

[spark wind]

you will one day be a roman consul with that attitude

[strong snow]

Yeah I feel like this is the general sentiment for everyone who gets in. It's like "woohoo I got into a good school but lemme just hope that MIT or something works out"

[strong snow]

Who says I'm not already?

Where you from dude?

[spark wind]

NJ, in South Asia rn though

[strong snow]

No shot, I'm in NJ too

India?

[spark wind]

am i speaking to Flamino himself rn or something

[spark wind]

nope

one of the other 3 countries

[strong snow]

Caeser actually

[strong snow]

Sri Lanka?

[spark wind]

wasnt Caesar the dictator not the Consul

[spark wind]

NJ rep #BestState

[strong snow]

Semantics and seblantics

[spark wind]

aiming for even greater heights icic

[strong snow]

Also I don't gotta worry, the event seems to be booked out so I won't be forging nothing by myself

[spark wind]

yeah i was kidding, i figured quite a few people would be attending especially since i dont think this is their first FTF event either

i hope if i do end up going into purdue that i get a good dorm

[strong snow]

Yeah I figure but no one on this server seems to have applied to Honors College so

[spark wind]

i dropped my sister off to purdue when she got in and the dorms looked horrible 🗿

[strong snow]

The Freshman dorm building looks hella nice from the outside if you're into the whole castle aesthetic.

[spark wind]

i am not. i do not want to be living in the dark ages

im already there, seeing as im in south asia (jkjk)

my standards arent even that high either, i just want a medium sized room that isnt made entirely of wood

[strong snow]

Anything is better than the mud hut you're in now right? jkjk

[spark wind]

im typing from my laptop by generating electricity through my homemade potato battery. so yeah i guess an upgrade would be maybe alright i guess

[hasty ruin]

was anyone able to get into the purdue class of 28 discord server?

if yes could you dm server link pls

[lucid hull]

^ same

[raven shoal]

im in it

wait

just class of 28?

[hasty ruin]

the one from the office of future engineers

so for engineering

although if there is a general one I'd appreciate it if someone could slide that too

@raven shoal which one r u in?

[raven shoal]

I sent it to u cuh

[hasty ruin]

oh yeah just saw it

thanks

[tired leaf]

Can you send me too

[celest bay]

Can you send it to me too pls

[raven shoal]

Just search up Purdue discord

[wet barn]

submit by end of january

[thin kite]

do you know when the loci is due?

[raven shoal]

whats ur major

[wet barn]

cs. adding econ/math by the end of the sem

[wet barn]

there’s no official deadline, but they generally release decisions in early march so anything past mid-february is too late

[raven shoal]

in daniels?

[wet barn]

rn i’m in the college of science, not sure how it will work once i add an econ double major though

[raven shoal]

Do yk any business majors?

[wet barn]

a ton

[raven shoal]

What do they major in?

[wet barn]

finance, economics, business analytics, and business management are the main ones

[raven shoal]

Ooh nice im dojng business analytics

[short sand]

is purdue indianapolis campus gonna be mid? any predictions for greek life/social scene?

[unique mesa]

they plan to accept more ppl in indy campus to fill that up id assume

so thats good for social life then

[raven shoal]

Its probably gonna be very mid...

like how iupui was....

[half tapir]

mid

[wet barn]

very mid

[raven shoal]

what makes u say that?

[wet barn]

the only thing that’s gonna be similar to purdue is the name. everything else is gonna be exactly like a random regional midwest uni

arguably even worse than that because purdue indy is brand new with nothing to its name rn

[cinder scroll]

But the degree is the same right

[raven shoal]

isnt it basically iupui?

[raven shoal]

what do u mean by that last word?

[wet barn]

yes and iupui was also very mid

[cinder scroll]

And isn't a field like CS mostly self study anyways?

[raven shoal]

do yk anybody from there?

[wet barn]

doesn’t matter, the “name” of the degree isn’t the only thing that counts

[raven shoal]

Cant u just list Purdue University on ur resume?

[wet barn]

it’s still gonna be a worse program overall with a “worse” (for lack of a better word) peer group and worse opportunities

my bad i should’ve read that message before typing it out 😭

[raven shoal]

You cooked him dw

[cinder scroll]

And apparently it will say degree awarded for study in west Lafayette

[pine cloak]

Yes it's part of the WL campsu

[cinder scroll]

Yeah

[raven shoal]

is daniels school good?

[cinder scroll]

You got into Indy?

[raven shoal]

na i got into WL u can stay on that side

[cinder scroll]

So rude

[raven shoal]

just kidding 🙂

[raven shoal]

hehehe

no

[cinder scroll]

You can do that for Purdue Indy tho 🙂

[sour ferry]

iupui wasn't mid

it was terrible

[cinder scroll]

Damn

[sour ferry]

like atp just go to iu or purdue

[cinder scroll]

It's not IUPUI anymore tho

It's purdue indianapolis and IU Indianapolis

[raven shoal]

what about it

ur opps go there?

[sour ferry]

i have a friend who went there and transfered out after his 1st sem

idk he told me it was terrible 💀

[raven shoal]

to where

[raven shoal]

why

[sour ferry]

i cld ask him what specifically

[sour ferry]

university of louisville

[raven shoal]

https://tenor.com/view/twitter-dad-meme-gif-2905134038800061545

[unique mesa]

it isn't

[unique mesa]

i mean maybe ig yeah more ppl should go then there

[unique mesa]

it isn't iupui which is why it wont be mid

they're hiring professors now

[unique tapir]

ehh idk if itll necessarily be terrible but it will be new & probably not worth the price of going to an oos/intl uni for whats essentially a branch/regional campus.

[hard horizon]

they give schollys to good intl students

full

[unique tapir]

even at a reduced rate would you really want to go to a regional campus of a uni

like idk

cant fathom that as an oos student going to a regional campus

[remote tartan]

has anyone that was deferred gotten their final decision yet

ppl on reddit were saying ppl can get their decision within weeks

or is that not true and its same as rd time

[fervent scaffold]

usually its same as rd time

like for most universities

[mint burrow]

does purdue rd and deferral decision come mid-feb or march?

[cunning gazelle]

i think its meant to come out by the end of march but it will probably come out before then

do you guys want to make a purdue class of 28 server for the people that got in ea so that we can meet each other?

[cerulean beacon]

can someone send me the purdue discord server link

[summer umbra]

what do i write in a loci

i got rejected from all my targets only deferred from purdue so this is my only shot lol

applied CS

[lavish cloak]

new ECs and awards, but also how youve involved yourself w your community i think

my counselor was nice enought to send an update to my EA schools about the service i did at school and i think that helped me results a lot

[summer umbra]

hmm

okay

is it like a letter where i say like Dear Admmission Officer,
balhblbalhlablhabalhab

[lavish cloak]

yeah ig?

you can prob find templates online

[unique mesa]

make sure you update ur grades

for senior year ig

idrk tho

[half tapir]

yea

you gotta yap alot

[summer umbra]

okay i as of now have new ecs

and such

so i just mention those and grades

[unique mesa]

yes

[summer umbra]

do i leave a section of how

purdue is my #1 choice or nah

[unique mesa]

say that ig doesn't hurt

but they might just end u giving indy campus even if u didn't select it 💀

[summer umbra]

bro im not going to that shit

prob gonna be so dead

[cinder scroll]

They don't do that

Only if you say you're interested

[rancid cliff]

not directly but say that you're still convinced purdue is the ideal college for you

or you could be blunt ive heard that they prefer bluntness like that

[summer umbra]

would it work if i say i got rejected from everywhere else

[unique tapir]

no

[summer umbra]

and purdue is my last school

[boreal linden]

They want to see why you are interested in going to Purdue

Saying that it's your last option is not really a reason

Cause they want to give the opportunity to people who will benefit from their resources

[boreal linden]

Hopefully you get in

[mint burrow]

what's the deferral acceptanc rate for engineering at purdue

[unique mesa]

they prolly will cuz they want to decrease acceptance rate

[unique mesa]

low cuz they accept most in EA

so instead of giving people main campus because of the housing crisis there they are instead just going to offer people to indy location as they need to fill that up anyways with new students

so similar to how northeastern did it with the international programs

people who just applied west lafayette got other satalite campuses as well like fort wayne etc

even though they just indicated preference for main campus

[mint burrow]

but i've heard there are some seats which become empty as some of the students who have been admitted to Georgia Tech or Umich or any other ivy leave their purdue spot

due to better engineering programs in the other unis

is this true ?

[summer umbra]

it’s literally my only school

that i can get into

i got rejected from everything else

[unique tapir]

this is why it is so important to have safeties, im wishing you the best of luck though

[summer umbra]

i only got into my safeties

but i’m just saying i got rejected from like every target

[unique tapir]

then yoy didn’t get rejected everywhere and purdue isnt really your last shot

[summer umbra]

yes it is

or i’m cooked for the next 4 years

[cerulean beacon]

Hello

Can someone send the link for purdues discord server

[spark wind]

CC --> T20 pipeline it is then (▀̿Ĺ̯▀̿ ̿)

[unique tapir]

why apply to your safeties if you hate them and think you wont succeed there.

[summer umbra]

ig it is

[unique mesa]

i mean very few though

purdue like knows who accept who prolly wont get into gtech or umich

like ik a guy who got into MIT/Berkeley but was waitlisted at UIUC cuz he was USACO Camp so its obvious that he'd get waitlisted from UIUC cuz they knew he wouldn't go if they got in

which is why the have the waitlist and they can waitlist hella ppl

[unique mesa]

ur chill

safties are still good

like u kind find good opportunities at like penn state

which are considered safeties

the only thing is that like flagship schools are just getting more competitive and theres nothing much that can be done about it

[boreal linden]

Plus, you can always transfer if you don't like a place

[abstract cloud]

yield protection is a lie 😭 UIUC cs oos accpetnace rate is 4.67% man thas not always how it works

of all schools a state t20 is NOT yield protecting esp for CS where its more selective for all t20s /25s

[half tapir]

t20s dont yield protect

maybe they're just not a right fit there

a single aspect didnt align

smth

[jolly knoll]

Yo if i got deferred are my chances a lot worse or still pretty good?

[jolly knoll]

Also when's a good time to submit my LOCI?

[analog sorrel]

asap

[analog sorrel]

a bit worse

[jolly knoll]

Aight cool

Gonna glaze Purdue really hard in this LOCI

[mint burrow]

but like I know a guy now from my school who got into uiuc eng and purdue eng . he's obv goona go for uiuc. so what would happen in that case

[unique tapir]

wdym what would happen in that case? morpheous is way off, publics rarely yield protect, and a top cs program like purdues is not going to yield protect.

[abstract cloud]

Idk what he’s saying purdue doesn’t yield protect

[open axle]

if i got into purdue for cs

can i switch to comp eng?

[abstract cloud]

i mean even if u swithf into fye u have to get a certain gpa js to get comp eng

[languid widget]

whats going at purdue i feel for the families affected with the student

[spark wind]

what is going on at purdue?

[muted socket]

A kid passed away bc of the cold

Similar to what happened at uiuc a few weeks ago

Its very unfortunate

[spark wind]

wait is this the same kid as the indian double major cs student who went missing on sunday?

or is this a separate incident

[muted socket]

I believe its the same

[raven shoal]

What rank is Purdue

Nationally

Oh #43

Tied for OSU

[languid widget]

its that guy

real sad

[muted socket]

Fr?

Thats interesting

[raven shoal]

yea. rutgers is above it

eng ranks at purdue

business and comp sci at purdue

[pine cloak]

🤓

🤓

🤓

[plucky zodiac]

Are the Purdue additional scholarships available for people who have been accepted but haven’t enrolled?

[cerulean beacon]

It seems I might me coming to purdue boys

[deft cargo]

i was accepted to purdue but for the change major "essay" in the portal

it has a 1000 word limit which is scary

how long is the general text written there, cuz i cant write 1000 words lmao

[lavish cloak]

all my schools gtech and uiuc admits also got purdue cs

purdue must be rlly shit at "yield protecting" 😂

[young silo]

anyone have the purdue discord server?

[dim marsh]

Same yo

[pine cloak]

Nah

Me got into CMU and UIUC and still got into Purdue as well

[polar siren]

Oof, I got into Purdue, GT and Michigan

[unique tapir]

like a co28 or the actual@purdue one

[young silo]

the 28 one

[sour ferry]

which one are you thinking of committing to

[polar siren]

USAFA or USNA. Leaning AF since 8th grade me decided I wanted to go to an academy, but I go back and fourth

[eternal ember]

Is there a Purdue discord?

[muted socket]

When does purdue aid come out?

Im assuming i wont get any but j wanna see

[spark wind]

did anyone who got accepted to purdue get merit aid? or does merit aid come later?

[fervent scaffold]

I got merit aid, it comes with your letter

[spark wind]

whats your major again?

[twin grotto]

guys im on team uiuc now did i betray purdue

[deft cargo]

at least its not IU

[alpine belfry]

if ur not going to purdue and got accepted withdraw app so i can go thanls

[deft cargo]

lmao

[mint burrow]

lol same

pls do so😂

[raven shoal]

If I withdraw as a business major does that mean anything for cs majors on the waitlist?

[pine cloak]

Most likely won’t meaning anything for anybody

They factor their expected yield rate into the number of acceptances

The waitlist is only if they are below their predicted yield rate

And even then since Purdue admits by major if you “cause” the yield rate for the major to be too low they’ll pull from the WL for business

[unique tapir]

god i hope the next freshman class is a lot smaller

theres too many people here

[sour lynx]

I think I heard they were cutting this year

[deft cargo]

15th biggest school in the country

and i was looking for a small school 😦

[boreal linden]

Considering that there is the Indianapolis campus, the class size will probably reduce

Cause they will start funneling kids into both campuses

Instead of 1

[unique tapir]

if you want a small school, a state school is not the kind for you i fear

[deft cargo]

yea 😔

i miss you harvey mudd

[clever moon]

purdue sent me someone elses acceptance

[lucid hull]

I received that email too, lol (with dear Olivia)

[young silo]

interesting

I got one with my own name

[clever moon]

is ur name olivia

[deft cargo]

me too

apology email in 3... 2...

[young silo]

Last I checked, I don’t believe so

[deft cargo]

"last i checked" lmao

[young silo]

Only one way to be sure.

[cerulean beacon]

guys 99% commit to purdue

the only thing is that I've heard purdue is a socially dead place

and very tough to make friends

I'm telling you guys alr

[bright urchin]

LOL i also got olivia

i think everyone got olivia

[deft cargo]

yea

[cerulean beacon]

3-4 of y'all need to be my be my best buds

or else 🔪

[deft cargo]

hey what if u make me commit to purdue and then u commit to somewhere else

[cerulean beacon]

@unique tapir is this true?

[deft cargo]

ill be lonely 😦

[cerulean beacon]

My only other decent acceptance is UIUC

[deft cargo]

what major

[cerulean beacon]

but in UIUC I have IS

[deft cargo]

ah

[cerulean beacon]

information science

I have Data Science here

[deft cargo]

is that in college of science?

[cerulean beacon]

which is really good

[cerulean beacon]

yes

[deft cargo]

ey me too 😄

[cerulean beacon]

If I choose my concentration in CS

its basically the same thing as CS as well

[deft cargo]

how easy is it to get cs classes as a non cs majors

[cerulean beacon]

also I checked the first year classes for CS are pretty similar

[cerulean beacon]

not too sure

[cerulean beacon]

comma dude

Im tellin you

We gonna be best buds in purdue

[deft cargo]

,

[cerulean beacon]

Im gonna call you comma,

[deft cargo]

😔

[deft cargo]

wait what state r u from

[cerulean beacon]

International student

[deft cargo]

ohh

[cerulean beacon]

Take a guess which country

[deft cargo]

hmm

kiribati?

[lucid hull]

pretty obvious

my guess was india

[deft cargo]

no no actually im pretty sure its tuvalu

[cerulean beacon]

thats true

[lucid hull]

ah, could be Vanuatu as wel

[cerulean beacon]

what is that

[deft cargo]

Brunei?

[deft cargo]

its an island country

[cerulean beacon]

ahhh

Theres been a total of 2 deaths in UIUC and purdue in the last 2-3 days

all of them indian

its insane

[deft cargo]

since u didnt know what tuvalu is, its safe to assume ur not from there, so 194 guesses left

[lucid hull]

I read, very unfortunate

[cerulean beacon]

Its alr up there 😭

[deft cargo]

they arent saying cause of death of the purdue student, so now my mom is like "purdues so unsafe im not letting u go"

[deft cargo]

yea ik

[cerulean beacon]

Nahh my school's senior told me

He got drunk and passed away due to hypothermia

Pretty same as the one in UIUC

[deft cargo]

yea i assumed hypothermia, but my mom is assuming gun violence cuz 'merica 🇺🇸 🦅

[cerulean beacon]

Ahahahah na its not that

you're from kuwait right?

[deft cargo]

me?

[cerulean beacon]

ya

[lucid hull]

the UIUC student was different though, I read that he was murdered by a homeless drug addict with a hammer

[deft cargo]

wait whyd u assume that

[deft cargo]

yea

[cerulean beacon]

didnt you write it somewhere in the chat?

[deft cargo]

im from california lmao

[lucid hull]

oh dang

[deft cargo]

I am from Michigan but I live in india

[deft cargo]

i love my cash crops 💪

[deft cargo]

wait so do u count as intl or domestic

[lucid hull]

domestic

[cerulean beacon]

my bad lmao I confused you with someone else in the UIUC chat

[deft cargo]

lmao

[cerulean beacon]

Should be OOS

[lucid hull]

yep

[cerulean beacon]

where in india do you live?

[deft cargo]

got rejected from uiuc 😔 who wants to go to a cornfield anyways smh

My name is not Olivia.

[languid widget]

[simple isle]

anyone know when purdue rd comes out

[lusty latch]

I got the olivia too lol

[spark wind]

this one person named olivia privately celebrating her acceptance letter not knowing it was broadcasted to the entire freshmen base of purdue university 💀

olivia if you are in this chat, congratulations

[fervent scaffold]

lmaoooo

[bright urchin]

Olivia is the GOAT

[lucid hull]

For real, she’s famous now

[deft cargo]

she probably doesnt even know shes famous

[deft cargo]

so relatable

[fleet onyx]

Anyone went from deferred --> Accepted yet?

[rapid brook]

no

they start reviewing past mid feb I think

[fleet onyx]

oh bruh

thats a long time

[rapid brook]

yeah cause they want to give time for people to send in midyear reports

[rapid brook]

does anyone know how you can self-report grades in the purdue portal

[sharp bobcat]

i can only do stuff ab housing after i accept my offer right

or can i do it earlier like in ut austin

Cus idk if im 100% oging there but highly likely and dont wanna get screwed on housing

[languid widget]

one of my friends got in LOL idk how

after deferred

[undone geode]

is now a good time to send the loci or do i wait

[mint burrow]

really !! when ?

[languid widget]

like a few days ago

[tall estuary]

@stoic mulch I got accepted for fall 24 CS. Can I dm you?

[pine cloak]

CS 🥰

[pine rain]

Does purdue require midyear reports?

[wet barn]

anything before 15april is the same

[tall estuary]

are you studying there?

[bronze jungle]

Got into Purdue fall 24 UX polytechnic

[stoic mulch]

sure

[shadow vale]

niceeeee

[pine rain]

Is Purdue rolling admissions

[deft cargo]

purdue ea came out

i think theyre talking abt deferral response?

[deft cargo]

is there a purdue co 2028 admits discord or reddit or smth

[remote tartan]

yes i am also wondering about this

[pulsar pumice]

is purdue better than tamu for aero?

[polar siren]

I think (don't quote me on this) that Purdue is ranked higher if you care about ranks, but not much higher. I also think it's bigger. Like more people in it, if that matters to you. Otherwise, as someone who researched and applied to both, I don't think there's a huge enough difference to matter

If you're deciding between them, look at the school as a whole and what they offer, as well as locations to see which you like better

[languid widget]

i think also look at tuition imo

if ur oos tamu

go to purdue

tamu is like 50k oos

[polar siren]

Yeah, I should have added tuition because that's honestly the most important thing

[languid widget]

otherwise thats up to you if ur instate

[languid widget]

yeah but what you said is also facts

[polar siren]

Weather for some people too. Both get cold but Texas doesn't get near as cold for as long of a period and very rarely gets snow. That's a point for Purdue for me, but some people don't like the cold lol

[languid widget]

yeahh tru

[opaque pumice]

has anyone gotten accepted package for purdue yet?

[void sluice]

dont those come out in march

[blissful belfry]

Does Purdue have compensation for English proficiency?

[bitter orchid]

I wish some school sent me a sweatshirt

Why does only uchicago do that

😭

[languid widget]

cus money

[jolly knoll]

Lowk if i go to Purdue ill glaze mbb so much

[cerulean beacon]

What’s mbb

Ohhh nvm

[deft cargo]

does purdue send acceptance swag or nah

[opaque pumice]

yea but apparently not until latterr

[deft cargo]

aw

and is the acc rate of a major change rn if im accepted higher than applying rd

like now that im admitted do i have a higher change of changing major into cs if i request major change than if i had applied to cs in rd

[analog sorrel]

no because u cant transfer into cs at purdue

[deft cargo]

what?

oh... im not trasnferring, i just got admitted into purdue, and i want a major change to cs, not trasnfer from another university

it was an option on the form, and i think its restricted for spring term, not fall
