Purdue University (2023-2024)

[stone lotus]

it seems like all the purdue rejects got into umd

12k?

[urban sierra]

12.5k per year

Iirc

[stone lotus]

nice

what else

[urban sierra]

I figured I messed up essays in ea

[stone lotus]

u got into

[urban sierra]

unc

[stone lotus]

oos?

[urban sierra]

In state tho

[stone lotus]

oh

unc oos is mad tough

[urban sierra]

Yeah

[stone lotus]

so you going to unc then?

[urban sierra]

probably

[stone lotus]

nice

[urban sierra]

Ubless I get lucky in rd

But I doubt it

[stone lotus]

6 days

[spark wind]

i was thinking of applying to UMD but then i saw how sad the campus looked and heard of the immense crime that happens there. i dont know if it actually has much crime but by God the campus just looked sad

[urban sierra]

I did also get into uw Madison

[stone lotus]

yea campus is pretty meh

[stone lotus]

same

[urban sierra]

but still prob going unc

[spark wind]

was also thinking of applying there but thought

nah

[stone lotus]

unc in state is great

[stone lotus]

crime is mostly in baltimore

not college park

[urban sierra]

I had solid stats but not much cs ecs

[stone lotus]

but yea there is still lot of crime

[urban sierra]

so didn’t have much expectations from the beginning

[spark wind]

i heard robberies were really high in college park

[urban sierra]

yeah I’ve heard that too

[spark wind]

you generally dont need CS ECs to get into top colleges. you just need to show general passion and a reason youd go into CS. I had like, one research essay I wrote on cybersecurity for school and one internship and i got into purdue

[urban sierra]

my main ec was a sport which I tried getting recruited for but the coaches either didn’t respond or wanted me to be a bit better

[stone lotus]

cant get robbed if you become a part of them 😈

[urban sierra]

true but I didn’t really have much to show in terms of cs interest on my app

[spark wind]

bro has never heard of gang violence lol

[urban sierra]

Is what I meant

[spark wind]

yeah thatd do it

[undone geode]

Its situated in a relatively dangerous area but the campus itself isnt that bad

Imo

[spark wind]

i focused heavily on CS in my essays like all the time lol

[bleak quest]

If mine says completed, am I probably getting the result today?

[dusky lynx]

if u were deferred then probably

[bleak quest]

yes I was

[simple isle]

bruh I was deferred and it still says decided

[dusky lynx]

then maybe not today but next week, not 100% sure tho

[bleak quest]

what time does it release usually?

cos it's like 1:30 am where I am

[undone geode]

is today also for defrred applicants?

or also rd

wasn't last week deffered or something

[dusky lynx]

another hour

[dusky lynx]

it isn't fixed guys. not all deferred get a decision one week and no other

[mossy kindle]

hey

[undone geode]

when do decision usually come out?

[dusky lynx]

5 pm est

[bleak quest]

.

[undone geode]

oh shit that's like an hour away

[dusky lynx]

yep, getting nervous lmao

[remote tartan]

anyone get any emails

Still ain’t get shit 😭😭

Applied cs I’m cooked

[undone geode]

Nah i didnt

[opaque spear]

what major did you apply for?

[neat field]

I am computer science

[bleak quest]

ce

[opaque spear]

oh shit you prob got in then

[pine gale]

reject wave

probably today

[opaque spear]

nah reject wave is last week

[bleak quest]

what makes u say that

[opaque spear]

you got deferred right

[bleak quest]

yes

[opaque spear]

yeah so if your status page changes back to complete it means you'll be getting a decision soon

and im assuming purdue doesn't reject untl the last week which is the 31st

so you probably got lucky and got someones withdrawn spot

[bleak quest]

I appreciate you saying that
but I am a follower of the philosphy that "expect dissapointment and you will never get dissapointed"

[opaque spear]

if that statement was actually true, everyone here would get accepted to cs

[bleak quest]

(saying this after getting rejected to umich uiuc ucla)

[opaque spear]

everyone here basically gave up on purdue if they didn't get a decision yet

[opaque spear]

but this instills some hope in me so thank you lol

[bleak quest]

haha okay let's see I wish you the best wherever you decide to go

[mossy kindle]

Ik scRed

Infix

[opaque spear]

you too

[frosty cipher]

28 mins guys

[dusky lynx]

no don't say that, I am getting it today lmao

[dusky lynx]

ahhhh

[opaque spear]

you rd?

[dusky lynx]

nah deferreal ea

[magic briar]

18 mins till purdue?

Meh i feel like i wont get mine im rd

ive literally waited the other 3 or 4 times just to be disappointed

[fair sequoia]

i think after 2 fridays of nothing ive given up hope

[magic briar]

same

seems like most people have too because its not as active anymore

[undone geode]

Honestly now that i got uw Madison im fine getting rejected from purdue

[foggy jay]

Ok boe

[neat field]

I DIDN’T GET ANYTHING AAA

ME ANGRY

[opaque spear]

did it change to complete

[magic briar]

i mean its 3 minutes but like

meh

[remote tartan]

Does deferral change to complete if u get it

mines still decided

[digital remnant]

they probably have it set to release in :00

[opaque spear]

changing to complete just means you have a decision update (soon)

[digital remnant]

coding works that way lol

[remote tartan]

even if deferral?

decided to complete

[opaque spear]

especially for deferrals

you can't really tell for RD

[dusky lynx]

okayyy guys, 2 mins

[opaque spear]

cause it changes to complete right after they submit their application

[dusky lynx]

atb to everyone who gets it

[opaque spear]

EA is a dead giveaway

[dusky lynx]

yh

[opaque spear]

this ^

all the best

we hope for something good, even if it means closure

[undone geode]

45 seconds

I just want a decision

[dusky lynx]

ahhh 30 seconds

[digital remnant]

wont even go cus its expensive

[undone geode]

20

[civic spire]

yo does it say completed

[opaque spear]

okay yeah that doesn't mean anything

[civic spire]

omg is it over😭

[frank hedge]

what are you talking ab

[thin kite]

what if they already decided everything since the first friday but they are just rolling the admissions out to deload site traffic

[opaque spear]

purdue rolls decisions every friday

[frosty cipher]

is next week ea rejections?

:(

[civic spire]

congratsss

[opaque spear]

the last friday is the 31st which is next week

[frosty cipher]

im ea defer. does that mean ill be rejected now?

[frank hedge]

theres a lot of fridays after march actually

[opaque spear]

nothings confirmed but

don't get your hopes up

[magic briar]

its 29th but yeah

[opaque spear]

they'd roll by the hour not a whole week 💀

[thin kite]

yeah u right

[opaque spear]

29th yeah mb

[thin kite]

maybe last week is for indie campus acceptances

[civic spire]

omg

why r they like this

[magic briar]

can't believe we're so unlucky that we have to wait until the 29th

actually puts me off sm

[bleak quest]

I got in

[civic spire]

r u sure it’s over for today

[frosty cipher]

will more decisions roll out today...

[civic spire]

maybe they roll more

[bleak quest]

computer engineering

[frank hedge]

did anyone get into cs today

[velvet hare]

wtf purdue

[frank hedge]

or just fye

[neat field]

Nope

[livid fiber]

ea?

[frosty cipher]

congrats <3

[opaque spear]

told ya

[civic spire]

omgg rolling is criminal

[thin kite]

bro 29th is AFTER ivy day

[magic briar]

im rd

[civic spire]

how do we know it’s not still rolling today

nooooo it’s ok bro

[thin kite]

it hasnt done that for any other days

[magic briar]

anyone here that's rd that GOT their decision?

[neat field]

Is this for deferred only?..

[thin kite]

hopefully next week is acceptance + scholarships

[foggy jay]

Idiot purdue

[velvet hare]

hahahah ong

[undone geode]

wait so only ea got decisions today

or even rd?

[thin kite]

no

[neat field]

Brah

[velvet hare]

Purdue after ivy day is acc crzy

[magic briar]

i saw that people got accepted up until the last friday

[thin kite]

im ea deferred no decision

[civic spire]

anyone got their decisions and is rd?

[neat field]

I’m RD and got nothing

[undone geode]

same i got nothing

[civic spire]

😭

[undone geode]

im rd

[civic spire]

I should have done ea

[foggy jay]

So only one person got it?

[thin kite]

next week might be alternate campus or alternate major acceptances or rejections

[velvet hare]

Surely next week is not all rejections right?

[remote tartan]

Yeah I’m cooked

[civic spire]

prob more that r not in the sever

[remote tartan]

deferred cs last week😭😭😭

[frosty cipher]

same

we sent in our apps 5 months ago

[thin kite]

idk why they cant just release all the decisions at once

even if it takes longer

[magic briar]

right?

[velvet hare]

me too

[frank hedge]

..or it might just be acceptances

[thin kite]

i hope

[frosty cipher]

is it true next week is mostly rejections? like any basis or?

[frank hedge]

nope lol

[undone geode]

that's what people are saying lmao

[thin kite]

i think its speculation based on previous trends

[velvet hare]

hopefully not

[undone geode]

im not sure thogugjh

[thin kite]

but no way to truly know

[frank hedge]

people "speculated" this week to be mostly rejections but that was cap

[civic spire]

no

[frosty cipher]

i didnt know purdue rolled their decisions uptill after ivy day..

[frank hedge]

and the week before that 💀

[civic spire]

ik ppl who got in the last week

[thin kite]

maybe we can call them and ask for our decision

[civic spire]

so don’t believe that

[thin kite]

guys this might be a sign

[frosty cipher]

hm could someone try that

[thin kite]

we didnt get our decision today which means we will get into all our ivys

[frosty cipher]

trueeeeee

what else could it possibly mean

[thin kite]

exactly

[magic briar]

lol what

[undone geode]

wait so next week is not rejections then?

[magic briar]

is the correlation

well

itll be a mxi

mix

[summer lagoon]

hope so

[magic briar]

but defo a higher chance of being rejected

everyone will finally get their decisions then

so thats at least a bit of certainity but wtv

[dusky lynx]

yessir, trye mindset

[foggy jay]

why tf would they edge us to just reject us, should just release the rejections first

[dusky lynx]

nah cause they wana give everyone the best shot so they wait and compare you to the pepole who aplpied and see how many people end up not accepting their offer. then they decide. so I mean you guys have aa chance still, it is defo not gonna be all rejections. don't lose hope

[magic briar]

lol

thats just not healthy

hope is good to an extent

[opaque spear]

it is

not all at least

but most

decisions end on the 29th

thats the last day

[lyric current]

dang that sucks

imma be rejected

or maybe cuz i might have submitted my loci in the beginning of march that it's taking long for mine to come

[velvet hare]

Me too

[bleak quest]

thank you man
really

[neat field]

Rejections being last confirmed

[opaque spear]

source?

[neat field]

I just know

It is overrrr

[frank hedge]

we got some doomers in here

[remote tartan]

We’re cooked

I knew the moment accidentally submit my 1400 sat for cs

[neat field]

Me who submitted a 1570

[magic briar]

maybe theyre leaving the best for last 😛

[fast robin]

certified pinaki moment

[neat field]

Smh smh

[opaque spear]

take this with a grain of salt but

[neat field]

Instant rejection next week

[opaque spear]

im assuming FYE was released today

maybe CS next week?!

[magic briar]

i didnt get FYE

[dusky lynx]

maybe, I was fye

[magic briar]

and im RD

so rejected

great

[frank hedge]

thats what i was thinking

[dusky lynx]

no no guys why the negativity, just be neutral

[magic briar]

idk man

this rolling business is really terrible

[velvet hare]

I didn’t get cs yet so maybe

[fast robin]

i didn't apply but my friend's tweaking out about some "wave of acceptances" shit and how it means he's either WL or rejected because he didnt get a decision yet

do any of y'all know if this is true

[opaque spear]

lots of FYE people tdy

[magic briar]

[opaque spear]

hope!

[magic briar]

im leaving the thread and withdrawing my app!

byebye

[opaque spear]

@magic briar WAIT

whats your major

[magic briar]

fye

[opaque spear]

FYE?

[magic briar]

im rejected

what a surprise!

[opaque spear]

oh

well you can still keep it in i mean a spot may open up

thats why they release in waves

[magic briar]

no the whole process is fucked tho

[next ridge]

What is fye

[opaque spear]

first year eng

[next ridge]

oh

[magic briar]

first year engineering

they make people get their hopes up every friday just to not release anything

its acc fucked

[neat field]

Which is why I’m withdrawing sorry.

[summer umbra]

yup west layaffate is getting destroyed

[next ridge]

Yo this school sucks

[magic briar]

terrible school

terrible adminstration

ranking means nothing

they cant even admit people correctly

how can they function correctly overall

[next ridge]

Im going to umass

cheaper

[summer umbra]

FUCK PURDUEEEE

[magic briar]

^^^

[deft cargo]

so true

cornfield school smh

[magic briar]

literally

[summer umbra]

i have them getting knocked out second round march madness

😭😭

[mossy kindle]

Yall@chill

[neat field]

Purdue Rejection Reason:
“Oh this guys geography states that there is a GeorgiaTech nearby, therefore we need to reject this kid”

[mossy kindle]

Im@sure u have other options

[summer umbra]

i don’t

it’s over for me

imma yell at them during their office hours

[foggy jay]

What is FYE?

[opaque spear]

^

[foggy jay]

Oh 👍

[opaque spear]

i know how it seems like ass to you guys but its actually them trying to help us

they release in waves hoping people who get in and don't want to go withdraw

so that they can consider everyone in the pool

[dusky lynx]

.

[opaque spear]

yeah that ^

if they did it all at once, we'd see a lot more rejections and some of those rejections could have been WL/acceptances if people who had no intetion of going withdrew their offer

[keen patrol]

For sure. My friends are stressed asl meanwhile I got it first week

I feel hella bad for them

[dusky lynx]

yep, I applied 5 months ago lmao. Been waiting a while for this

rolling is defo stressful

even worse if u get deferred and/or waitlisted and rlly wanna go there

[summer umbra]

wl is getting bombed

[craggy mantle]

is it not coming out today

[opaque spear]

next week if you didn't get anything today

today was FYE accepts

[craggy mantle]

what time is it supposed to come out or did it come out

fuck that means I got rejected

lol

[mossy kindle]

It doesn’t bro

Damn ppl just yap

[opaque spear]

5pm est

[mossy kindle]

Next week everytning comes out u could be accepted rejected or wl

[opaque spear]

nah apparently they releasing decisions by major

[mossy kindle]

Just wait a week

[opaque spear]

what major are you

[craggy mantle]

CS

[craggy mantle]

Ohhh

[neat field]

Wait so when does CS come out?

[opaque spear]

yeah cs isn't today

next week

[craggy mantle]

Alr alr

[earnest sleet]

I doubt that's true

Unless there are multiple waves for the same major

(cause I got accepted for cs on march 1)

[frank hedge]

fr 💀

[craggy mantle]

I got deferred

[opaque spear]

shit

[craggy mantle]

So idrk anymore

[opaque spear]

idk then

random ass lottery atp

[earnest sleet]

y'all got this 🙏

[opaque spear]

if you guys got in and aren't going, pls withdraw 🙏

[dusky lynx]

yep, may everyone be with you

[mossy kindle]

Having a good school you got into is so nice

I stilll want Purdue but I’m chill

[dusky lynx]

oh are you the person who got into umd or uw mad?

[polar siren]

Already done. Hope you get my spot

[vernal shadow]

Did anybody get cs today after deferred?

[stone lotus]

wsg guys

[urban sierra]

apparently not

[opaque spear]

nada

[opaque spear]

cs?

[stone lotus]

i think cs admitting is done

[urban sierra]

Idk abt done

[stone lotus]

considering they're tryna reduce class sizes

im pretty sure they're done

[urban sierra]

is yield high for Purdue?

[stone lotus]

wym

[remote tartan]

cs accepted ppl who aren’t planning to attend reject your admission 🙏🙏

[urban sierra]

Like do a lot of the accepted ppl choose to attend

[stone lotus]

yea

mad cheap

[urban sierra]

uh 40k isn’t mad cheap

[stone lotus]

40k coa

is cheap

comparative to every other state school

with 60k coa

purdue instate gotta be a minority

its west lafayette

[urban sierra]

ig

[stone lotus]

who tf lives there

majority students are prolly OOS

so for OOS id assume 40k coa is cheap comparative to other colleges

[polar siren]

Oof. Sadly no. Aerospace

[opaque spear]

oof rip

[stone lotus]

dang

so no cs admits

maybe next week?

or maybe it was just the first two weeks

[daring iron]

yea cs no descicion

[native tartan]

maybe it’s joever

[daring iron]

I applied cs no decicion

[trail patio]

ok nice feeling better now

[native tartan]

lmao

[pine gale]

css no decision

[stone lotus]

💀

[gusty ivy]

purdue i love you

[long breach]

40k still sucks

i only applied because i hoped they would give me a merit scholarship

[reef niche]

anyone been to purdue's forge the future event?

[stone lotus]

did u get in

[gusty ivy]

i got in ea lol, i just come to say that after every rejection

[fair agate]

i got deferred

and got in today

FYE i think idrk

[dusky lynx]

yh same

got deferred for eng and got in today FYE

but I mean Purdue has been my top choice forever so I'm really happy

[glacial grove]

nice!

[eternal imp]

When will rd come

[dusky lynx]

Next Friday is when everyone gets their decisions

[eternal imp]

Okay

[serene shard]

ffs it still says complete

augh

[unique mesa]

did anyone get in

cs?

rejections aren't last

[unique mesa]

fye

literally pumps

in so many kids

its not space restricted

[unique mesa]

u guys overreacting is crazy

u could get waitlisted

[small beacon]

I’m still waiting

[unique mesa]

how may cs kids did purdue already admit

[summer umbra]

the waitlist conversion rate is like 2%

[dusky lynx]

On this website, it is stated that "In 2021, Purdue waitlisted 5,307 students. Of those, 2,740 eventually were offered a spot." - some reddit dude

so I mean close to 50% back then, shouldn't be too much lower this year (but will be lower caue they are becoming more selective)

[native tartan]

i’m not him 😭😭

[pallid ingot]

who needs purdue when i got into GEORGIA TECH HEHE

[frozen dune]

no decision yet ITS OVERRRR

[summer umbra]

purdues common data set

[native tartan]

bro if im getting waitlisted

i will just cancel application

[toxic ruin]

no way 😭😭

[sharp dock]

19 💀

Well, if it helps, I got in and prob wont go to Purdue

[toxic ruin]

0.3%

[sharp dock]

save +1 seat for whoever is next in line

[toxic ruin]

Lower than IIT ffs

[frozen dune]

19 lmao

[hardy charm]

but for 2023 there were 466

https://www.purdue.edu/idata/documents/CDS/CDS_2023_2024.pdf

page 19

[glacial grove]

i did but that was for EA

[spark lotus]

is there an admitted students discord or forum or whatever

[static laurel]

is purdue indianapolis cooked

[thin kite]

whoever got in after being deferred ea, did u get indy campus or west lafayette

[mint burrow]

WL

[remote tartan]

Purdue admissions department is being a pain in the ass

like if they reject me why not just say so there’s literally 0 reason to hold out

bc if they’re waiting for room in the cs department just put me on the waitlist

these Mfs I swear

Might reject the offer out of spite if I somehow get in

[mossy kindle]

We know u ain’t rejecting if u get in

Just have patience lil bro and stop bitching

Go read a book

[vague briar]

Guys how hard is getting into first year engineering?

My friend got in and wants to know how competitive it was

[deft cargo]

incredibly hard

purdue is famous for its eng, ofc its hard to get in because of its reputation and how good the program is

from their website: The acceptance rate for new-beginner First-Year Engineering students for Fall 2022 was approximately 37%.

it ought to have gone lower because of the increase in number of apps

[fervent scaffold]

Reminder to respond to RD poll regardless of what wave you got your decision in

[deft cargo]

yea, that ^

[vague briar]

37% isn’t incredible hard tho

[dusky lynx]

WL

but tbf, in my common app I said I was not interested in being considered for the indy campus

[digital fulcrum]

yep it’s a target for most

[vague briar]

Gotcha

[undone geode]

Can Purdue stop being a bitch and say that I’m rejected 💀

[viral reef]

purdue engineering isnt incredibly hard

i agree, its a target

[tropic oyster]

wait no purdue wave this friday?

[upbeat oyster]

Bro how many schools did you apply to 💀

[native tartan]

ikr why the suspense

[untold dagger]

Hey I’m one of those people lol

So excited. This is probably my top choice

I can do stats if people want idk if that’s normal on this server

[untold dagger]

Wym. 37% is a hard reach for most unless you consider most to have 4.0 and 1500+ sat

Also it’s definitely lower this year

[fervent scaffold]

it's pretty normal lol yeah

[muted dirge]

I forget where I heard but the acceptance rate for engineering dropped down to 32% this year

[untold dagger]

I got deferred on Jan 12th for engineering like lots of other people. Wrote a LOCI by the end of January and was accepted on March 22nd to engineering at West Lafayette. About a week before my decision came out I sent a brief email to my regional admissions counselor(officer?) basically just saying my grades are improving (they were bad first semester) and that Purdue is still my first choice, I dont know if it made a difference but could have...

Stats are:

3.46UW 💀

School doesnt rank

2 APs (both in senior year)

1520 Sat (760, 760)

OOS

AeroE intended

[untold dagger]

Saw this somewhere too

[muted dirge]

I wonder if that number includes Indy acceptances or not

[dim trail]

Bro I still haven’t gotten my decision

Is it rolling?

[livid fiber]

yes

you should receive one by 29th

[inner comet]

still havent got a decision yet after deferral :/

[blissful flame]

why is purdue so slow 😂

[rough quartz]

wait i didnt submit a LOCI will i still get a decision?

[untold dagger]

Yeah it’s not required but it’s encouraged. I did and was accepted but idk if there’s correlation

[digital fulcrum]

i’d say it’s a target for people with a 3.9+ and 1500+

at least for people at my school

[untold dagger]

Yeah….so like .1% of the population. Definitely not most

[digital fulcrum]

a good amount of stem applicants at my competitive bay area high school are like that lmao

[muted dirge]

Key words are competitive and bay-area

[untold dagger]

^

Average sat score in the USA is like 1000

[spark wind]

if your in A2C odds are you are above average

generally those who care about getting into a T50 college to this extent are the above average people (in certain aspects)

[untold dagger]

Yeah that’s a good point, but even then I’d argue it’s above average. I have 3.44 gpa which is kinda ass for these schools yet I’m still involved in A2C and CC

[urban sierra]

how many aps did your school offer

but gg though

you prob had something that stood out to them

[untold dagger]

I want to say they offer 8 but that’s just a quick count in my head

[untold dagger]

Yeah I think so. I think it could’ve been improvement. I started out really bad in low level classes freshman/sophomore and by senior year I was in all honors/high honors/ap. But also my application was very AeroE centric

[urban sierra]

I mean something outside of grades

but I definitely thing the improvement played a role

honestly grades aren’t always the best indicator and colleges know that

[untold dagger]

Yeah and I think my sat carried me super hard

But also I got a C first semester in AP calc so I thought I was cooked

[urban sierra]

for example I applied cs with a fairly high gpa and sat but my ecs didn’t show much of a interest in cs

I’m still deferred so I don’t have too much hope for Purdue rn

[untold dagger]

I know last year the last week had no admits but I think there’s a chance it’s different this year because nobody got in for CS this week and in the past the only rejections were the last week but this year there have already been rejections. Fingers crossed for you

[urban sierra]

ngl I don’t care too much abt Purdue at this point cause it might be too expensive anyway

[untold dagger]

That’s interesting Purdue is actually the cheapest on my list besides Lowell despite being OOS. It’s not cheap obviously but cheaper

[urban sierra]

I’m oos so my best bets for cheapest schools are privates with good aid or in states

and I’m pretty lucky with what schools I have instate

[untold dagger]

I got waitlisted to my state school of UMass Amherst unfortunately

[spark wind]

yeah and thats why i said in certain aspects. you wont be above average in every category but you most certainly are in many, if not in the GPA of your earlier years

[spark wind]

case in point

[radiant maple]

yeh

not heard anything yet

[brisk atlas]

Is there an admitted discord server

[unique tapir]

if anyone would like the overall purdue discord server let me know (all classes in there)

[bronze dew]

me!

[unique tapir]

sent :)

[sour ferry]

mee

[untold dagger]

Me

[raven jackal]

Me

[idle kettle]

they have plenty of people who did it to accept. I think it just shows to them who cares the most? Also only changes they'll see from your application since their ea decisions will be midyear grade... How else will you show them your improvements in ecs without loci?

[static laurel]

does anyone know when a decispion would be sent if u submitted a form for major switch

[brisk atlas]

me please

[sturdy iris]

Me too

[boreal linden]

Me as well

Is there one for just engineering?

[dusky lynx]

omg could I please?

[fair sequoia]

i emailed them asking if it was and they said it is

i still havent received my decision though so i think i'll get rejected/wl

[deft cargo]

bruh what do u mean, 37% is pretty difficult

from 2 years ago its probably even worse

[neat field]

I def got rejected

Next week will be bloodbath

[vague briar]

Meh

But still proud of my friend nonetheless

[deft cargo]

ok tbf i forget im on a2c

the data here is so scuffed

37% is hard everywhere but here

[deft cargo]

but congrats to ur frend :D

[vague briar]

1/3 chance is a lot better than 9% chance 🙂

That’s just my view tho

Bc I applied to schools like that

[vague briar]

Yippee!

[deft cargo]

wait what is 9% in purdue?

cs?

[untold dagger]

It’s not a 1/3 chance tho. That’s not how it works

Just like a 50% acceptance rate isn’t a flip of a coin

[vague briar]

I just meant like schools I applied to had around a 9% acceptance rate so

[untold dagger]

If 100 stupid people apply to MIT the 5% acceptance rate doesn’t guarantee 5 will get in

[vague briar]

Well obviously it depends on your stats but when ur looking at smth like this, that’s the best metric you have to measure when looking at competitive applicants

[deft cargo]

i mean "difficulty" is subjective
like 37% is pretty hard to me, but prob not for u
i also applied to a bunch of incredibly hard places, and now im #4 in the a2c rejection leaderboard

[vague briar]

😭

[deft cargo]

hey, at least im finally a t20 in smthing :D

[untold dagger]

I just don’t like acceptance rate in general. I think middle 50% for sat gpa etc is better

[vague briar]

Yippee!!

[deft cargo]

https://tenor.com/view/yippee-happy-yippee-creature-yippee-meme-yippee-gif-gif-1489386840712152603

[vague briar]

Assuming you have the stats, the acceptance rate is the best metric you have to see your “chances”

[deft cargo]

nah gpa is hella scuffed

[untold dagger]

Yeah you’re right actually lots of inflation/deflation

[deft cargo]

yea

and its so teacher dependent

[untold dagger]

Definitely. And idk how colleges weight different years like freshman vs junior or something

[deft cargo]

if there are 2 math teachers, one is ez other is diffuclt, no way for colleges to see that one kid had ex one, one kid had bad one

[deft cargo]

and covid rly messed everthing up

way easier to get good grades, but also cud be harder, no way to find out

[untold dagger]

I did pretty bad during Covid actually

And I explained that

But it also meant I had an awesome upwards trend

[sour ferry]

if anyone wants the fye class of 28 discord dm me

[fair agate]

me 2

thanks!

[jade crag]

me pls 🙏

[inner comet]

Is Purdue out next fri then

[untold dagger]

Yes. Last wave

[inner comet]

they rlly put me in the last wave💀

[native tartan]

it’s probably joever for us

i don’t think anyone got a rejection in the previous waves

[inner comet]

yeah wtv I wasn’t gonna go anyways aha

[deft cargo]

can u dm me too please

[thin kite]

I think the last wave is cs only

Cuz last wave I haven’t heard anyone getting results for cs

[toxic ruin]

where did u guys send ur letter of continued interest?

bc i emailed admissions and they j said to upload it as a doc from the portal which is what i then did

[crisp wave]

i dont see a decion for purdue yet

is RD supposed to be out yet?

[untold dagger]

There’s a form under “reply forms”

[untold dagger]

Some are some aren’t. The rest will be out next Friday

[serene shard]

What is your role

[toxic ruin]

for rd too? or just deferred

[untold dagger]

Just deferred

LOCI isn’t required for RD

But if you want to add one what you did is good

[toxic ruin]

got it, thanks!

[crisp wave]

i just cant find anything to write in them, i mean its been like 2 months

[untold dagger]

I understand. I didn’t really know what to write in mine. I ended up basically just telling them Purdue is my top choice, recounting a story of how influential my campus visit was, and shared that I’m still doing well in my hard classes. I also sent another LOR and some class levelings were changed so I told them that

But no real updated achievements or anything

[dim marsh]

I am getting Purdue housing ads on my insta reels 😭😭

[inner comet]

is that a slide

[dim marsh]

I think so

It’s off campus housing

[outer plume]

when will purdue be giving out results?

[untold dagger]

Next Friday

[outer plume]

so like 29th/30th?

[untold dagger]

Likely 29th at 5:00 pm est

[outer plume]

alright but why do some people already have results

for example one of my friends got their result around a month ago when they applied rd

[untold dagger]

I couldn’t tell you. One thing tho is that they have all been acceptances

this is also how they did it last year

[dim marsh]

It’s coming out in waves…

[blissful belfry]

Guys what does it mean when the application state is awaiting material and there is a ✔️

Also, I sent my DET result but I can't see it anywhere on my application

[native tartan]

there is probably something missing on your application, send a screenshot

[blissful belfry]

Yes I think it is the english proficiency. (I can’t send screenshots here idk why)

[native tartan]

dm

[narrow dew]

Are there any Purdue students here?

[opaque spear]

its basically rolling rn

they're def rolling cs and fye towards the end so they can get more people off RD and deferrals

fye already happened for a bunch last friday

[jade crag]

guys how likely is purdue to give me more financial aid i am literally dirt poor and the estimated cost of attendance is completely out of budget

[fervent scaffold]

most publics don't give oos kids money

[jade crag]

it’s ggs

[fervent scaffold]

see if there are scholarships you can apply for

[jade crag]

in another universe somewhere out there i am not dirt poor and could afford purdue

[unique tapir]

slim to none

[jade crag]

i choose debt

[mossy kindle]

Does Purdue give little money to oos ppl?

[unique tapir]

correct. dont bank on any money from public unis if you are out of state

not to say it doesnt happen, it does. but dont expect it, because its generally uncommon

[digital remnant]

ehh merit scholarships exist tho unlikely for purdue uiuc and those type of elite publics

[unique tapir]

merits are still not that common from many public unis for oos students. they exist yes, but do not expect them is all im trying to say

[mossy kindle]

So Purdue being 40k I can expect to pay about that if I’m oos

[digital remnant]

are you making your argument for non elite publics?

if so i disagree its a gamble yes but they do randomly give a lot of aid

[unique tapir]

i would expect it yes

[unique tapir]

i am making it for a the average public. scholarships happen yes, but they arent common and shouldnt be expected.

[solar sapphire]

always plan for your worst case scenario

scholarships are far from guaranteed lol'

[dusky lynx]

probably yes

[digital remnant]

average public? do state schools count in the average public?

i got one full ride and two 80k+ scholarships from average public schools

and im an intl

if ur good and qualified you can expect scholarships lol

but if ur applying with a 1230 sat then obviously dont expect anytyhing

[muted dirge]

Yes

[muted dirge]

I got money from Purdue but my experience seems to be the minority of most people

[summer umbra]

so when the hell is this gonna finally say completed

[dusky lynx]

probs next friday

[unique tapir]

exception not the rule

like i said, it does happen but you shouldnt expect anything

[velvet gazelle]

Mine has said completed for the past month lol

[summer umbra]

r u rd

[velvet gazelle]

Yes

[mossy kindle]

Thas why

Only deffered ppl change

[velvet gazelle]

I c

[dusky lynx]

cause ur rd, the other person was deferred

[short sand]

any of u admitted EA submit a change of major get a response yet?

i submitted mine like a week after getting in and haven’t heard anything

[static laurel]

i submitted mine back in jan

i heard they get back end of march or sum

[covert hemlock]

is it true that if you get your decision this coming friday it most likely is waitlist/rejections

[spark wind]

Nope

[undone geode]

George Pickens rejected Purdue's offer

for CS

so hopefully help you guys on the waitlist

[deft cargo]

😔

[neat field]

I got nothing

From Purdue

[tropic oyster]

same

[spark wind]

Legend 🔥

[sharp verge]

purdue is also known to be exceptionally stingy

at least from my experience

[opaque spear]

its everything

but yeah it'll be a bulk of waitlists and rejections since thats the last friday

[muted dirge]

Yeah it’s like only like 15% of admitted students that Purdue gives merit to

[digital remnant]

its obviously not the rule but its not an exception either lol

dont downplay how much aid publics can give you if ur applying w good stats

[narrow dew]

is purdue Polytechnic reputable?

[sharp verge]

they literally go to purdue

believe me purdue is broke

[digital remnant]

what? if you read the whole convo you would know that im not talking about purdue or elite publics

and purdue is broke as fuck not just broke theyre literally charging teh same tuition as they did a decade ago while all other schools are inflating their prices

[plucky zodiac]

Is Purdue polytechnic reputable

[unique tapir]

again, literally all im saying is dont expect aid

[digital remnant]

well yeah its not 100% certain and u shouldnt get ur hopes up but its more common than u think lmao thats all im saying

me and my friend applied to a bunch of the same average publics and each received similar aid packages so i believe they do have some sort of criteria

[unique tapir]

sure, and for some publics (such as ones that have automatic merit aid) that absolutely can happen. but for many, that is not the case

[digital remnant]

yea did you hear a specific state is offering 100% certain aid packages if u submit an sat score higher than __

i forget which state it is

might be alabama

[unique tapir]

i havent heard about that, i dont look at those kinds of things anymore given them im already in uni

[daring iron]

any updates on purdue CS deffered applicants?

[mossy kindle]

Dawg it’s this Friday

[nocturne parcel]

did any business majors get their RD decisions?

[sharp verge]

... why are you in the Purdue chat then

I'm talking in the context of Purdue because it's the Purdue thread

#💵-financial-aid exists for aid talk

[neat field]

Purdue rejection this week

[digital remnant]

it relates to purdue in the sense that purdue is an elite public school, a type of school that does not provide aid to oos students

and the conversation stemmed from purdue

i dont understand why people who had no involvement to the discussion at all are making assumptions based on 2 text messages

either read it in an entirety or dont comment at all

its that simple

[last summit]

are u saying that not giving good aid == elite 😭

[summer lagoon]

man does not know how Purdue admission works 💀

you had a chance to get an update each Friday for like the past month

and this Friday is the last Friday

[twin timber]

What update??

[upbeat oyster]

Decision update

[echo wind]

UIUC > Purdue CS
ma deffered guys we stay strong

[digital remnant]

no, im repeating myself for the 3rd time but if you had the patience to read over maybe 20 messages of conversation you would know that both parties agreed that elite public schools are unlikely to give you oos aid. either read or dont get involved at all

Washington or wisconsin?

[quartz knot]

anyone do a transfer request?

[fervent scaffold]

#954425230896545792

[sour ferry]

no i think theyre asking if uw means washington or wisconsin

[fervent scaffold]

OH

oops

mb

usually UW refers to washington though, wisconsin is either wisco or uw-m

[twin grotto]

uwm is both milwaukee and madison

honestly madison should just shut down

all problems solved

[mossy kindle]

Uhhh

[twin grotto]

did i say something wrong💀

[mossy kindle]

Yes

[undone geode]

yea

[stone lotus]

wash

[boreal linden]

Why would you want the main campus to shut down

[mossy kindle]

Hoping I flop the nuts with this Purdue decision Friday

[twin grotto]

I'm salty obv that's why

[stone lotus]

this wave

gon be all CS

for sure

[native tartan]

and rejection

[wet barn]

if you do i'll add you to the poker groups once you come here

[lavish vault]

what are the blinds

[wet barn]

10cent/20cent

going up to 25/50 in a couple weeks

[stone lotus]

10 cent blind is wild

[wet barn]

with 10 people on the table and multiple re-buyins it still leads to ~600 dollars on the table most nights lol

[stone lotus]

dang

[mossy kindle]

Love to hear it 🤣

[stone lotus]

poker is fun as hell wont lie

[toxic ruin]

no one has heard back from rd cs right?

[earnest sleet]

I did

[toxic ruin]

not deferred?

[earnest sleet]

Yeah I applied RD and got in cs

[toxic ruin]

oh damn... I thought no one has

I assume that's one of a few tho?

[earnest sleet]

beats me 😅

I think a couple of other people here who applied rd got in for cs as well

[gusty ivy]

just curious, what are the odds of getting any financial aid oos

if anyone knows

[unique tapir]

slim

it happens but isnt all that common, id expect to pay full price if your oos

[boreal linden]

Purdue oos is much better than comparable oos engineering and cs public schools

In terms of price

[stone lotus]

true

[muted dirge]

This is why I’m going

[fleet onyx]

Anyone who DID the LOCI after being deferred and still no decision?

how are ppl still getting deferred for purdue...

[native tartan]

wdym? people send the loci only after getting deferred or waitlisted

[remote tartan]

Me

I did loci like a week after deferred ea

oos cs

[stone lotus]

same

[deft cargo]

does anyone know how purdue dining/food is

is it bad, good, or just meh

[torpid smelt]

this is something tay, aria, or other billert might know more about

[deft cargo]

other billert lmao

[upbeat oyster]

What time does decisions come out?

[eternal imp]

5pm - 7pm EST I guess

[topaz knot]

Hi everyone, I have a question towards Purdue alumni or current students

So I've been considering if I should buy an electric guitar for a while, about $500 if I buy all the equipment. I wanted to know if I should bring it to campus and store it in my dorm, unless there will be complaints or someone steals it

I got accepted to the honors college btw

[muted dirge]

Something you’ll prolly talk to a roommate abt if you’re not doing a random roommate

[topaz knot]

I'll probably be using headphones in the dorm

I was just wondering if anyone would steal it

[undone geode]

nah, im aerospace

[wet barn]

no

my roommate keeps the door to the room unlocked and wide open literally the entire day despite me telling him not to

i live in the shadiest dorm and nothing's happened

you'll be fine in honors

[snow frost]

R any purdue decisions coming out today

[sour ferry]

friday

[snow frost]

Ok

And this is the last fri they can send rite

[sour ferry]

afaik

[summer lagoon]

yep

[topaz knot]

Thanks for the tip

I'll be attending the boilmaker bound so I'll ask people there too

[sharp verge]

sorry it's pretty ass

it used to be good

[deft cargo]

aw

and how bout dorms

[chrome bone]

does anyone here know if you can make it just by the requirements into Electrical Engineering CODO if you start with something like data science in the college of science

is it better to codo or go somewhere i got in guaranteed for engineering

[deft cargo]

iirc, college of sci -> college of eng is tough, but ill let someone more qualified answer

[deft cargo]

and whatever qualified person choses to answer, wud it be easy for this dude to go from ds to cs since theyre in the same school and department

[wet barn]

afaik it's pretty easy

[wet barn]

ds to cs is pretty much guaranteed. almost everybody ik who came in as a ds major and wanted to do cs is doing cs

[muted dirge]

I mean I don’t see somebody stealing it

[queen dirge]

As a double major or completely switched to CS?

[wet barn]

double major, it's the same though, you can drop the ds major once you're a double major

[queen dirge]

Oh damn

Didn't know this

[dusky lynx]

5pm est

[pine gale]

friday or td

[dusky lynx]

oh damn no rejections so far?

[dusky lynx]

friday 5pm est

[pine gale]

we r rejection and waitlist wave 😭

[dusky lynx]

nah u can't assume that, there will be acceptances as well. otherwise they wouldn't have another week only of bad news

[long breach]

its probably a mix

[civic spire]

wait today?

I thought they always release on Fridays

[neat field]

Man getting rejected from Purdue with a 1570 | 4.16 GPA | NASA internship is such a sad thing.

I just know it’s a rejection next week

[hard horizon]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1154055137388667002.gif?size=128&quality=lossless

Are you fye or cs

[neat field]

CS

[urban sierra]

Cs I’m assuming right

[neat field]

Yes

[urban sierra]

we love cs

[neat field]

Cs brah

I can’t believe choosing a major is a break for an application

I should have done business

[urban sierra]

Welcome to cs

The grind never stops

[hard horizon]

whats your best option thus far

[boreal linden]

I have the same GPA as you and I got in with a lower sat score than you. You can definitely get in.

[abstract cloud]

what happened to it

[abstract cloud]

CS?

[boreal linden]

Engineering

[abstract cloud]

CS RD is a crapshoot, altho i knew someone who got in a few weeks ago

[pine gale]

4.4, 34 ACT, NASA Internship too and I’ve been rejected from every single OOS I’ve applied (GTech, UW, UIUC, UNC, UW-Madison)

We will be fine just apply pathways for nasa during 2nd year of college wherever u go and you start entry position NASA out of college and we have advantage cause we already have internship exp with them @neat field

It’ll be okay

[fresh dune]

Why is everyone saying next week is rejection

[deft cargo]

and do uk about ai to cs

i wud assume its the same since theyre in the same department and school

[wet barn]

@low thicket

[wet barn]

similar to ds but harder because ai majors take the intro cs course in freshman spring instead of fall

and you need to have taken the intro course to be able to switch to cs

[idle kettle]

Last week I got my decision 5pm est

[deft cargo]

ohh

is it impossible

or just a little harder

[wet barn]

just a bit harder

way easier than any other major -> cs

[deft cargo]

wait so if its a fall freshman req that u cant get, whats the process then

do i have to take something to make up for that

[wet barn]

no, you just stay a sem behind

until sophomore year spring sem. that's when everything equalizes and you can take whatever course you want whenever

[deft cargo]

so grad in 4.5 years instead of 4?

[wet barn]

no, you only stay a sem behind for the "core" classes, so only the first two years

there's still a ton of time after that to make up for the one missed class

[deft cargo]

aight tysm :D

[wet barn]

a ton of cs majors end up being a sem behind anyways, so it's not a huge deal

[deft cargo]

wait and what course is the intro course?

[abstract cloud]

doesnt mean its true

ppl just love speculatign

[wet barn]

cs180

[untold dagger]

Because the last years the last week was all rejections and waitlists

[visual igloo]

will a bad citizenship grade get me rescinded like purdue wont know right?

[deft cargo]

wait does anyone know purdue's rescinsion guidelines

what does "drop in academic performance" mean

[visual igloo]

yeah i wish they were more specific about it

[low thicket]

bro pinged me but already answered the question

🗿

[deft cargo]

lmao

r u an ai major?

[fleet onyx]

Yea

Noone got rejected bruh now im scared

mass rejection release this friday

[deft cargo]

oh shi

gl ppls D:

[fresh dune]

Wishing on people getting rejected is crazy

[unique tapir]

people jave gotten rejected, just not in here

[pine gale]

Lil server flex

Server intelligence flex

[dusky lynx]

lol even in early, there were hardly any rejections. mainly deferrals for this year

cause they're trynna reduce number of admitted students due to housing issues

but they still want everyone to get the best shot they can

[boreal linden]

Out of the people I know who applied to Purdue, one person was rejected

And another one was accepted to Indianapolis

[abstract cloud]

ik for FYE everyone was accepted, but close to half the ppl ik for cs/ds got deferred

ik one person who was admitted RD

[fresh dune]

Everyone?

[abstract cloud]

i mean tlike eveyrone i knew

[fresh dune]

There’s no way

[summer umbra]

so over

[abstract cloud]

idk, the ED boost goes crazy i guess idk

[pine gale]

FUCK

[abstract cloud]

also its prob self selecting or whatever its called

[pine gale]

i shouldve applied ea

[abstract cloud]

ppl who mightve gotten deferred might not have told me

[pine gale]

but my act wouldnt have come ion on time

[abstract cloud]

CS or FYE?

[pine gale]

cs

[abstract cloud]

for CS is till know qualified ppl who got deferred

ik a UW oos CS admit who was deferred

its a crapshoot

[pine gale]

it was either i submit ea with test opt or rd w a 34

35 superscore

[abstract cloud]

EA with test opt is guaranteed defer

they are test required
