yeah
you know that giant landfill near boca?
thats the closest we had to a hill lmao
yep
i do remember that thing
its been almost 10 years in delaware
i like the hills
now im feeling hella nostalgic 😭
fake hills
i used to see ts everytime i went down the turnpike
i heard broward county is getting light rail so...good for them!!
nah
it depends tho ofc
you could be in a nice urban area and then it turns to fields in 20 mins
no,its straight farm fields
and then the urban north
the suburban city of indy
and the many college towns
no
I know someone that’s trying that right now and he just flunked out of calc 1
well i mean i passed calc ab with a 4 so that shouldnt be an issue
outside of that dyt thats a good pipeline
No
why so?
Anything into CS is kinda hard
I know one person from engineering to CS
and plenty from CS to DS
is it the number of internal transfer applicants, the course requirements, or both?
it’s kinda hard to codo into a ‘better’ major or another major in general
It’s the GPA and the fact that they are full
like the gpa requirement to be a cs major?
To transfer into CS
ohhhh i see
The Purdue course catalog bulletin lets you search for every class and course for every major offered at the West Lafayette/Indianapolis campus.
See if this is helpful
thanks bro
@blissful shoal also iirc if you wanna change majors you have to take off season CS classes which are weed outs on steroids
Not sure tho you can ask @pliant garnet
hallo
Yuh
yea so for codo to cs
i see
You got another one
they look at 2 main things when theyre considering ur codo to cs
ur math gpa, and ur cs 180 gpa
as well as what math ur taking
those are the most important factors
so cs180 in the fall is only available to cs majors, in the spring its open to anyone
and in the spring, they make it a lot harder, and ur stuck with bums for projects and stuff
fall cs180 average gpa is 3.4 ish
spring cs180 average gpa is 2.4 ish
and then purdue math is shitted no matter what
r u taking bc rn, or uve taken ab and thats it
i've taken AB and im self studying BC
will take the BC test this may
i see
which is the hardest math course here
average gpa of calc 2
its bad
the highest gpa teachers dont teach this course anymore
so its only gotten lower
💀
So glad I don't need to take calc at purdue 💀
Not even calc 3?
What major
CompE
Yeah you’ll be fine purdude’s roommate is doing compe
wait is there a diff between ece and compe
i mean ee
how difficult is purdue business for oos
i saw that overall acceptance rate is like 60%
if youre an overall competitive student, youre probably fine
bro is just spreading propaganda holy fuck
💀
it is really not that hard
people are just not used to the rigor
also watch the avg gpa shoot to a 3.5+ this coming spring
the person teaching calc 2 is matsuki and that dude legit gives you a "study guide" with all the exam questions 1:1 same values and all
next semester i mean
if you're doing trash with the goat himself you are not cut out for any engineering college
I might've asked this q before but how's compE here
have you considered that different people have different strengths/weaknesses & that it costs nothing to be kind
no because people are bitches and he is one
no bro it is that bad
but uh thank god i never have to do those calculus classes again
(we dont get a choice and no ap courses offered)
holy shit im so cooked
holy shit thats INSANE
you should theoretically get in with that gpa
im about to farm the shit out of office hours in 180
but then intl and asking for as much aid as i can receive (purdue doesnt give full aid to intl iirc)
ngl they wont give you shit, its a public state school
the max i can afford really is like 30-35k a year (with a loan) so im really cooked
there isn't a lot of schools that will get you to that cost
but purdue is pretty cheap compared to others like nate's saying
i assume its like what, 50k for you @tulip harbor
wait coa is just 42k?
im paying 43 out of state i think
same costs as UCs
definitely no more than 45 but def not less than 40
damn thats nice, without any aid right?
yeah no aid no nothing
^
ok so i think if i can by any way get work or something with college i can afford
you guys got my hopes up
i didnt even see coa cuz i assumed it was gonna be 80-90k
you can apply for work study with fafsa
but idk how easy it is for intl's
fafsa is not for intl right?
yea im dumb
it's "federal" so only US
my fault
yeah, but i wanna try for ug cuz only way im getting in a decent college is by getting under 500 rank out of 1.6 million
and even then i cant double major or get any electives smthn
yipppeeee
im from india, got in cwru but not enough aid, they said if i can provide proofs that i can pay with 20k yearly scholarship they'll take me in
purdue is so easy to double major
most schools have hella restrictions
congrats on case western, really good school. but this makes sense money wise, i know it's expensive even for here
yippee
time to do business and gender studies
😛 🔥
lolllll what ok. what schools have you getten into, you havea solid percentage so far
but im econ and stat here at purdue
uc merced csuf penn state trinity indiana university
oh shit thats really solid, what major? but glad that you have good options thus far
Yeah so IU’s a good start
And here too if you’re mathy
definitely
Yeah makes sense. I fucked up during college apps and didn’t apply to anything early
same as usc
i did like everything early except some random ones
You got into USC?
I did only Illinois Wisconsin and Michigan early
ED’d Northwestern ED2’d UChicago
Struck out somehow
They’re solid
ye
I mean you applied to 30 schools you’re not lazy
Still you got time if you want anything else
At this time last year idt I had apllied to Purdue
i have 1 more spot
technically
i saved a bit for no app fee and no supplemental colleges
no chance,es
Isnt the max 20 on the commonapp? Whats the point of 30 unis 💀
huh
not everything is common app
Oh okay mb, most ppl ik applied through commonapp with like 3-4 ucs
o lol
Yes
one of my friend has 1400 sat and hes wondering if he should apply test optional
hes looking for mathematics major in college of science
he has 790 on math so idk if it would help
yeah im pretty sure this would help a lot
but his english score is pretty bad
making his total at 1400
it falls in 50th percentile tho iirc
Oh then it should be fine
im pretty sure purdue prefer a score
Yeah it says they expect a score
so it would be better to send one as long as its not under 25th percentile?
like a general view
hes above 50 percentile according to last year data so i think it would be fine
just wanted to confirm here tho im intl so not much experience
If its above 50 percentile it should be obvious to submit especially when they basically require it
Also 790 math
oki, thanks
also just one last question
which campus is better, indianapolis or lafayette
im confused here
Lafayette is main campus
DO NOT APPLY TEST OPTIONAL
purdue is basically test mandatory in practice
its damn near impossible to get in test optional
lafayette is the good one, i personaly am not a fan of indy
do not do test optional
only wl, dont do indy
does anyone know exact date of purdue EA release
Jan 15
hello yall
i'm an IBCP (IB Career Related Program) student
basically IBCP is similar to IBDP but we don't have a requirement to take 3 HLs and 3 SLs, rather, we have our own choice as to how many subjects we want to take, but we also have a "CRS" (Career Related Study, a subject that you study so that you can actually get jobs and internships after the completion of the IBCP)
Like IBDP has its core subjects (CAS, TOK, EE), IBCP has 4 cores
LD [Language Development, where you take a completely new subject and you study it to a levle where you can fluently speak it]
RP [Reflective Project, basically EE]
SL [Service Learning], same thing as CAS
PPS [Personal and Professional Skills]
apparently IBCP has a lower chance of getting into unis because we have lesser classes as compared to DP
i wanna go to purdue and major in AI, the subjects ive taken up as of now are:
Math AA HL
English Lang Lit HL
Physics HL
Chemistry SL
I want to drop chemistry and take up psychology SL and maybe Business management SL, do i still have a good chance of getting into purdue for AI even if i drop chemistry? what do yall think
Ok this message turned out much larger than i thought
Also to make it worse im from india
IBCP is not preferred over the DP program because it is seen as less rigorous
ur chances would be higher if u pursue the diploma route
im already in cp
i cant switch now
lafayette
Indianapolis doesn't even have their buildings built yet
fr
i almost ended up crying when i went to the indy campus when i saw how badly purdue was being treated
💀
i swear it's like IU is bullying us
everywhere i went I saw IU signs
the only thing that could distinguish between a purdue building and an IU building was a sad piece of paper that was taped and half torn
Please stop
just take a bunch of aps and ull be fine ig
itll be helpful in the long run
u can basically ditch gen eds requirements
let me in let me in let me in let me in let me in let me in let me in let me in let me in let me in let me in let me in let me in let me in
less expensive than paying for the college course
!purdue
Now why didn't I think of that?? 😭
i hope i get that admission officer 🥰
nah
my guy is onto something
he knows something we don’t
i wanna apply to transfer to purdue and write an essay like that now
waiiit am i allowed to send a transfer app to purdue? 
naww what was this
this is just funnt 😭
if i was an ao and I read that I would be like Hell Yeah
i wrote about star trek for most of their supplementals, its literally free game
That’s good to know because I wrote my personal essay on Star Trek
i love star trek
the star trek club tho
it hasnt met in nearly 20 years
saddenning
That’s so sad :(((
Hey no way same
Although I only mentioned it for like two sentences haha
Idk how to do that
Just ask the HKSA disbanded for a while
Like 5 years
Oh ok
u only need 5 members and a faculty advisor to start a club
5 star trek fans...
If Purdue accepts me (pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease) I’ll become a member, trust
Fr
me too
why does purdue require me to fill out the courses and grades on commonapp instead of just taking the transcript
who do they think they are
same for cmu
why
whats the point bro
theyre gonna get the transcript anyway 😭
Purdue isn't for the weak
Does Purdue University admit students based on their intended major, like the applicants to the College of Engineering are evaluated differently compared to those applying to the College of Health and Human Sciences or the College of Liberal Arts?
gg
standardization probably
yes its by school/major
im gonna crash out
r u intl?
two weeks before it all starts again
I know I’m shitting myself. They better accept me or…… or I’ll cry
Yikes
the semester starts in two weeks
it happens
i cried when i got rejected from uiuc
which i tottally wanted to got o
but shit happens
Yeaaah I promised myself I would get attracted to a school for that reason and here I am WAY too attached to Purdue
oh yeah, but i was just saying that purdue comes out in 2 weeks
yeah purdue is highkey just a matter of stats
especially if ur instate
flight and nursing might be a bit more essay-focused tho
they have lower average stats AND lower AR than something like CS so probably rely heavily on essays
Hell yeah
what is a boilermaker
A dude who makes boilers
Purdue Pete is a boilermaker
As are we all 
boilermaker is funny
Sameeeee I'm terrified
me too
We got this guys
Fr only 2 weeks?
17 ish days I think, so a bit over, but who's counting? (me. I am)
what time does it come out
5:00 PM eastern
im pst bouta open it when it comes out
I might have musical rehearsal that day and if I have to WAIT I will scream
6:00AM for me 💀
which is usually the time i wake up on school days tbf
great i have to stay awake till 330 am again :D
i rmb this
this was so stupid lowkey
but i lowkey fw them for doing that in a way since they scaled my gpa to a 4.0
i feel like i was nowhere close to that so
big W
I was setting up for a quizbowl tournament when the decisions came out last year
I forgot about that lol
How they made us put in grades
lowkey i was j playing pokemon showdown when it came out and my dad was like yo it came out check it
and i didn't expect it bc it was 2 days earlier than 15th
i just saw that i got admitted, did a mini celebration and went back to grinding
why is this the realest thing i have ever seen on this server
i was playing forza throughout, it really didnt phase me
cause i thought id be at a different college
im allowed to report only the RW score from one test and the M score from another test right?
This is waht i have for test scores is this okay?
where is math
bro idk
i self reported my scores on the common app
I stg if i get fucked over because of this
report again
its fine
there is option to report new scores
yeah i reported my math score
gg
I hate global warming bc wdym it’s 50 degrees and raining in late December
Midwest winter is not wintering
no it should only have 1
i dont think the "R" means reading
oh nvm then
more 16 days aaaaaaaaaaaaa purdue lemmme innn
Yeah
purdue 🙏
I am so excited to make boilers
In the gatech chat I put that I am so excited to sting venom into unsuspecting vacationers
Lol
I'm excited to get into the game
Get studying again
Home is nice but the grind is nicer
It is??? 💀
I never want vacay to end hs sucks
I like the grind
Purdue grind hits different
Makes me feel useful
Shut the fuck up
I've been rotting in bed for two weeks
Good. Do it for 2 more weeks
Nah my mom wants me productive
But i cant
Cause that's for the sem
Go see friends
Or go somethjng with your brother
I did
But delaware boring
Drive everywhere
Fun things 30 miles away
Fair
I like feeling useful cuh
Fair
Fr
Just us fucking around
Thats so cute
Just like we would if we were back on campus
lol
I want vacation to end, break is so boring
COME INTO VERIFIED
i agree, im ready to go back. i miss my friends
Friends being friendly
thats so cute
Yeah those guys are my ride or die
For real. My state really does not have anything to do that, isn't fifty miles away
purdue lowk kinda seggsy
I'm not about to drive an hour to have fun
same costs as UCs
I miss just walking down the street and dealing with something
You can most likely find that I just don't know where
it said 60% overall
idk if i trust it 😭
purrizz university
purrizz\
2 weeks gang
I think Mr. Purdue Pete should be nice and just tell me now actually
It’s not that impossible to get in and they’re gonna be accepting more people
well nothing is impossible

yes i agree with your statement
manifesting your statement
manifesting ur statement
lol
fr fr
real
i alw feel like something will bite me in the ass when im at purdue and that feeling is good
it motivates me to become so m better than i am
im such a fucking bum at home
i just realized you can submit resume in additional materials for purdue on the portal
is it too late or should i upload mine (i applied EA)
try uploading
if ur luck is nice they didnt see ur profile yet so it will be added
I feel incredibly naive to say that I’m confident in my Purdue application
But I kinda am
ee
2 weeks!
2 weeks!
2 weeks…
btfu
Fr
I'm so lazy at home
On campus, there was always something to do
And we are always surrounded by people and friends
ive been sleeping until like 2
its so bad
i need pressure
I spent 3 hours in bed watching Netflix this afternoon
I could have been doing so many other thjngs
I hope so🤞
I want a school and this is my earliest school so purdue is my dream school rn
!purdue
real
what is the time again
jan 15, 5pm?
tweakin out
Yes it's 5 PM Eastern
bruh me when im in physics
Why are the Purdue class of 2029 insta profiles already getting so many students posting
Surely they can’t all be athletic admits
thats what i was wondering lol
some r even from countries other than usa like india and sg and idt they even recruit from there
Should I email admissions to let them I forgot to report one of my senior year classes
The class is band 😭
I just realized I didn’t submit it on the common app
yea shouldnt be too hard
theyre fake
yall havent been admitted yet
those pages should normally pop up around late feb
early march
13 days
I think anyone can be defered
can you be deferred for a RD decision ?
No, thats basically waitlisted
fake but ive noticed a lot of time that they reuse the instagram so those might be 2028 kids
If I were an ao I would be more embarrassed by that than portal astrology ngl ☠️☠️
they’re student run
they don’t have any control over that
i got two more honors can i send it in any way?
im going to be in my free period then
13 days!
🎵 On the first day of waiting for purdue decision 🎵
🎵 My AO gave to me 🎵
shit now i have to think of 12 clever things
kphrghjkoeghniosrhnioghbnsrr
wamkdhjowadhawiodhaoidahda
does anyone have like
something to determine how likely i am to get into purdue
lowk scared agf
like off of stats and stuff
theres not a single thing
ur just gonna have to do it like the rest of us did
sit here and wait?
yep
theers no guarantee
we dont do chancemes
purdue i love you pls let me in
WE GETTING IN
🎵 A mini panic attack in my bed room 🎵
purdue is so sigma
Purdue
Boilers

WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
College admissions are literally a coin toss. Especially with the overadmitting of students and housing crisis here, its hard to tell what the university will do(defer a lot of people, admit at the same rate, or push more people into the indy campus). Just hope for the best and everything will work out in the end
yes sir🫡
i guess we’ll be back here in 2 weeks
yes
I got this email does it mean anything or am I delusional
No. I got the same email though 💀 and I’m choosing to be delusional
I didn't recieve this???
death and tragedy
It was for women in engineering. Idk if you are a woman or applied for engineering but if one of those things doesn’t apply you wouldn’t get the email
??
ur delusional
I will get rejected 🙏
I GOT IT TOO
(IM DELUSIONAL)
like 45k ish
oh
Its so true
oos
wait penn state or upenn
Cs at purdue is not for the weak
state
so yeah
im so surprised how i even got in
im going into mechanical engineering
Ngl
BRO FR IDK HOW I GOT IN
I applied ce as my second choice major but now i want ce
Anything i can do ab that
some ppl say it was under 10%?? i dont think so tho
apperently penn college of engineering is giving out scholarships
but i have to write 4 essays bruh
😭
nahj
its reuse tho
from my past supplementals
ur chill then
its like why penn state
why ru sressing
oh right penn state never had a supplemental
Penn state > Upenn
this one
💀
idk bout this
that shouldnt be too bad
me when i get into penn state:
fr
Penn state is the upenn of Pennsylvania
what
thats why i hope i get into a UC
logic went out the door:
what did u apply to
it was 20k tuition
ut austin same
or some
ggs
its ok id die to go
their business school is TOP TIER
engineering too
fr
one of my family friend got in
ut austin is a public ivy
for '27
they barley had any ecs tho
my sat score is gonna kill me tho
but like a 3.9 gpa
i submitted a 1390
damn 😭
if i get in ut austin somehow
well idk if id commit
right away
im too delusional thinking that ill get into a top tier UC school
imma party tho
lowk
uc riverside?
yes
nobody saw that
i heard ppl on tiktok say uc irvine is abg heaven
never heard anything bout riverside
interestig
no ur not, ur getting into fye
joining the pain of the rest of us
good luck tho
well for purdue yeah
cali instate? Cuz ucs are like 60-70k 💀
Purdue is my 2nd cheapest option.
Purdue let me in my options r limited 💀
my cheapest options is ucs
💀
which are kinda hard for me to get in (other than ucm and ucr)
cause engineering major
but im delusional
I need to clarify but university of california? I looked at oos tuition and it was insane
im in state
so
yeah
Nice
in state
Fair enough, i’d prolly just commit to a uc if i had in state ngl lol
do they not want to wish the males in eng happy new year?
whats this partiality 😔
theres literally so many dudes in engineering
some of these majors are just straight dudes
doesnt matter
yes it doe
:/
i have
Mb
but theres also like 2 minority nuclear engineers
I have yet to meet a female
thats the sovietss fault
/ j
u got ur friend tho
what about the 49% female ratio
where did everyone go
I ate them
damn
this is so sad
I have yet to meet a nuclear engineer
yall need to go to lambertus more
Nah
Funny sounding building with too many engineers
great study room
but that's because you're scared of them
they exist dw, there's some in engineering
fatass
Hey I applied early action, but now i have my first semester of senior year grades (7th semester) and they're better than what I've already submitted. My decision is supposed to come by the 15th, is there some way I can share or add my new and improved grades for their consideration?
Pretty sure you only send if you get deferred early action
i applied rd and i think im fucking cooked but its okay tbh
🎵 on the third day of waiting for Purdue decision 🎵
3 golden acceptances
2 days of depression
We have fye, so you don't declare an engineering major till the end of first year
If you put another engineering major as your first choice, you should be totally fine
fye my total enemy
i applied for mechanical engineer
so how it works
is u take these general first year enginering classes
or have college credit for them
u have to get a 3.2 gpa to get into mechE
so thats a 3.2 gpa cummulatively over 1-2 semesters
for mechE theyre strict, so 3.2 or bust
and its a 3.2 gpa for your fye classes and general gpa
The Purdue course catalog bulletin lets you search for every class and course for every major offered at the West Lafayette/Indianapolis campus.
its not that bad
CS or bust
How is purdues campus
It’s so pretty. I like their water features
theres water features?
amzing stuff
The fountains haha.
yippee
its pretty massive
like real big
the southern part of campus so far away
love purdue
you think its big but then you go visit a campus like ohio state and it feels tiny in comparison
purdue is nice
how many swimming pools y all got?
is there like a nice lounge by the pool too
one big ass building thats just swimming
and one in the 5 story recreation building
We should go swimming sometime
Is the pool heated?
anyone know when ea decision will be out?
the 15th
Isnt Purdue bigger than Ohio state though? Checked online before applying
I though Purdue was huge
as someone whose been on both campuses, ohio states feels much larger than purdues but maybe it feels so large in part to the city
PURDUEEEEEEEEEEEE
Yeah fs
Can I join?
Aren’t you like, not even here?
Everything’s walkable, love it
But there’s still more than enough stuff
They struck a good balance
hows are the internship opportunities at purdue?
One of the best in the US
are you enrolled in any?
Yeah, I got an internship next fall thru purdue
Had the option of one in the spring but chose not to
would be possible to self sponsor 50% of my OOS tution
Meaning?
Like thru internship pay?
I’m not sure about that
@pliant garnet is there anyway to uh check the admission stats through ur portal
Admission stats?
and sometimes ig companies can sponsor your education
yeah once check texas a&m chat
billernt could check, was wondering if u could
Like they could see freshman profile thru their student portal?
i guess so
Tf???
Hm idk anyone who is doing that rn, but I also don’t know many upperclassmen, maybe tay can help u with that
ic
No engineering
Send pls never heard of it
I got this link: https://www.admissions.purdue.edu/academics/freshmanprofile.php
Engineering has corporate partners as well iirc
cooked cooked
This is mine
Oh but this is tdm

How about for meth or econ yk?
Thanks for trying love
Not me

tell me how much u got in ielts
no its just an estimate that i came up with
ielts doesnt matter
