Purdue University (2024-2025)

[fluid sequoia]

what abt prof

can u choose the prof bro

[sand aurora]

No

[fluid sequoia]

WUDDA THE FUCK

[sand aurora]

I mean you can

After the schedules are released

You can go in and try to transfer to other sections

[ebon cipher]

You just gotta get lucky afterwards in class switching

[fluid sequoia]

ok good

[sand aurora]

Or waitlist

[sand aurora]

Yeah

[fluid sequoia]

i am not tryna do 8;30 classes bro

[sand aurora]

At least it's not a 7:30 lol

I went to a 7:30 once and we were walking to class in the dark

#abnormal psych

[marble wagon]

Somehow i assumed 8 am classes r the earliest based on insta lol

[ebon cipher]

For most schools 8 am is

[marble wagon]

Everyone: dont take 8 am classes its not hs you will regret it

(I dont get the logic but sure)

[ebon cipher]

I thought Purdue was 8:30 for the earliest but damn 7:30 is NOT it

[marble wagon]

Rn i’m used to early classes so idrm idk if that’ll change in college though

[velvet hare]

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[sand aurora]

It changes

[karmic parcel]

i wanted to but some of those classes...

mechE the move

[sand aurora]

My hs starts at 8:20 and I had no problem waking up. Now, waking up for 8:30 is annoying

[karmic parcel]

730s are not it

u think u can do it

[sand aurora]

Avoid them at all costs

[karmic parcel]

but its hard

[sand aurora]

Job security wise, it's the move

[karmic parcel]

a reason i did this

was cause 730s were evil

[karmic parcel]

yea totally, but i think i can still to aero jobs

[marble wagon]

But for what reason, late night studying? Late night activities/parties/clubs? or cuz the weather makes it dark in the morning

[karmic parcel]

if i focus my experience that way

alr doing an aero class this semester

[sand aurora]

All of the above

[karmic parcel]

everything and more

[sand aurora]

You probably can

[karmic parcel]

night time is when everything happens

[sand aurora]

Damn

You really avoided the early sections

[ebon cipher]

A lot of my friends in college have stopped functioning before 9 am 😭

[karmic parcel]

its acc not that bad, most of the classes are in the same building

[karmic parcel]

its also cause theres too much overlap

only issue is my scla

but my tuesdays are too filled

i cannot be doing 5 classes on tuesdays

[karmic parcel]

me fr

[ebon cipher]

A guy I know has a sleep schedule of like 3:45 am to 11 am

[marble wagon]

Do u think if it wasnt so dark like of u were in a warm place your schedule would change? (My parents r pushing for uab over purdue 😔)

[sand aurora]

Gives hs schedule vibes

[karmic parcel]

yea but it cold outside

[remote nymph]

Is there a lotta chemistry in FYE?

[karmic parcel]

and its the physics building

[sand aurora]

No

Just one class

[karmic parcel]

one chem class u have to do

[sand aurora]

Minimum

[karmic parcel]

and another that u can do

if u hate urself

[remote nymph]

Ok good, I haven't taken much chem in highschool

[karmic parcel]

or like chem

[marble wagon]

Chem sucks

[karmic parcel]

i got a C+ in chem 115

[sand aurora]

I know a guy who put phys lec, rec, and lab back to back

[karmic parcel]

i hate chem

[karmic parcel]

thats what it gave me intially

[marble wagon]

Who actually likes it though

[karmic parcel]

i was not doing allat

[remote nymph]

Is it the same for physics, or is there more physics

i like physics

[sand aurora]

True

[karmic parcel]

one physics

cant avoid

well a 5 in ap physics cm

[marble wagon]

Chem is like the annoying byproduct of stem, cant escape it

[remote nymph]

and can you test out of classes?

[karmic parcel]

some of em

[sand aurora]

Damn. Honestly, the weather was one reason why I originally wanted to go to tamu over purdue. I was scared going to a colder place. But purdue really builds your cold tolerance. It sucks at times, but you learn to survive and you become stronger

[karmic parcel]

tunnels

veo

running

[sand aurora]

To me, 30 degrees is no longer below freezing

[karmic parcel]

30 degress is sweatshirt weather

[remote nymph]

I gotta figure out credits and such too

I got a 4 in ap calc bc

[sand aurora]

30 degrees on the east coast is so much better than 30 degrees in the midwest

But that's only after spending time in the midwest

[sand aurora]

Type in Purdue ap credits

Tells you what classes you can get credit for

[ebon cipher]

That should just put you into multi 1st semester

[sand aurora]

Based on your ap scores

[remote nymph]

thanks

[marble wagon]

Ironically the cold weather is why i wanna go to purdue over uab, i hate hot weather and i rlly wanna experience living somewhere with snow (i’ve lived in chicago n Michigan but i barely remember it)

[sand aurora]

No problem

[remote nymph]

im not even accepted yet so thats to worry about later

[sand aurora]

Lol. If you have lived in Michigan, you can definitely get used to Indiana

[ebon cipher]

I require cold weather so badly

[karmic parcel]

For engineering its different

[ebon cipher]

I’d hate going to a southern school

[sand aurora]

How so

[karmic parcel]

Physics

[sand aurora]

You need a 5 on ap c

[karmic parcel]

They only take 1 physics exam

Purdue takes ap physics 2

As well

[marble wagon]

Lol i havent been to michigan in a few years, i’ve been living in india since middle school so i’d have to readapt

[karmic parcel]

Engineering doesnt

[sand aurora]

Interesting

[sand aurora]

I see. You can do it tho

[karmic parcel]

https://engineering.purdue.edu/ENE/Academics/Undergrad/FYE/AP

[karmic parcel]

Bolded black is what they take

[sinful viper]

ive had 7:30s but now i try to statt at no earlier than 9:30

you can request times its just not always recommended

[remote nymph]

ah this is helpful

[ebon cipher]

Oh they don’t even take EM credit interesting

[sand aurora]

Bold is relevant courses to engineering or fye

[sinful viper]

my hs started at 7:30 it is so different than a college 7:30

[sand aurora]

They do

E and m is a second year course

[ebon cipher]

Ohhhh yeah

[remote nymph]

and how hard is securing your intended major after FYE? i wanna do mechanical but should i consider the fact that its not guaranteed when deciding where to commit?

[karmic parcel]

I'm kinda cooked ngl

[sand aurora]

98 percent of people get their first choice

[karmic parcel]

I sold first semester

But other folks chilling

Alot of smart and persistent cookies here

[remote nymph]

okay so its not a crazy struggle tho

[karmic parcel]

Nit me tho, getting weeded out off rip is crazy

[karmic parcel]

Its a struggle alr

[ebon cipher]

Heard it’s pretty much guaranteed if you keep your GPA high enough

[karmic parcel]

But as long as ur on top

Ur good

[remote nymph]

hmm alright good to know

[pliant garnet]

So was I 😔

[karmic parcel]

Do not underestimate these classes

[remote nymph]

again im not even accepted yet so

[pliant garnet]

But 730s are horrendous

[sand aurora]

As long as you get a b or higher in every class, you are good

[karmic parcel]

I'd be sleeping in my calc 3 lectures

That's why I stopped going

[ebon cipher]

Same I’m just hoping 🤞

[remote nymph]

its pretty soon

4 days

getting in will be quite the relief

[sand aurora]

Depends

The grind is real

Just got to keep on top of things and hope for the best or get lucky

[remote nymph]

🙏 🙏

[sand aurora]

It all depends on what you are good at

I suck at coding, so engr 133 was a huge pain in the ass for me

But I had a good group, so it worked out in the end

Math on the other hand, I took an L

[drowsy vector]

im so scared abt purdue

[karmic parcel]

As they say, Cs get degrees

Just not for semester 2

Causes As save the day

[sand aurora]

Indeed

[sand aurora]

Don't be scared

[drowsy vector]

last year they only took 2/10 ppl from my school

so lowk cooked

[sand aurora]

I thought I would be cooked coming in but turns out, that wasn't the case

[sand aurora]

Hopefully you aren't

[drowsy vector]

yea praying

[drowsy vector]

what time does it generally come out

[sand aurora]

5 pm est

[drowsy vector]

oh shi okok

and wait

is there confetti when u open

[pliant garnet]

Yep

Black and gold confetti

[drowsy vector]

praying 🙏

[ocean lichen]

The Purdude is here

[drowsy vector]

it says last year 46.1% acceptance for college of eng

do yk how much it approximately might be for out of state

[pliant garnet]

Idt they release that

[drowsy vector]

ah ok

[ebon cipher]

Damnnn

Last year they took like 27 people from my school

And 40 applied

[drowsy vector]

wow

nice nice

[ebon cipher]

Year before that it was 24/32

[drowsy vector]

im from md and here ppl regualrly dont apply to purdue

[drowsy vector]

oh wait thats lowk good

[ebon cipher]

BRO WHAT 4 YEARS AGO IT WAS 31/32 😭

[drowsy vector]

holy shit

thats so good

[ebon cipher]

I did not expect that

[drowsy vector]

hopefully works out for both of us

[ebon cipher]

Ah that makes sense then

I hope so too

[drowsy vector]

what state u from

[ebon cipher]

Ohio

[drowsy vector]

ah

i applied comp eng 💀

whatd u apply for

[ebon cipher]

Well aero but it’s just FYE so it doesn’t matter

[drowsy vector]

oh yeah tru tru

fye pls bless up 🙏

[karmic parcel]

I was the only person in my school to come here, don't worry it's not about that

[marble wagon]

somehow atleast 5-6 ppl go to/get accepted to purdue from my school every year. My college counsellors make everyone apply as a safety 💀 (i think its a target for non-stem though dk how its a safety)

[fringe gyro]

last year 4 people from my school got in, nobody committed 🥲

I think for the past few years no one from my school has committed to Purdue (I will change that...PLS TAKE ME IN PURDUE)

[marble wagon]

lol atleast 1 person commits every year ironically none of them r eng though they usually go to gtech (purdue > gtech imo)

[fringe gyro]

exactly yeah, same here

one chose gatech and other one uiuc over purdue

[marble wagon]

most ppl commit to gtech, eng order goes gtech > uiuc > purdue in my school (idk how everyone has the same logic)

[fringe gyro]

literally same

[marble wagon]

i'm not into eng but personally i'd choose purdue > uiuc > gtech. i think purdue has an edge over uiuc from a cost pov

(i just dont like gtech its prolly better though idk)

[obsidian glacier]

gtech vibes are off

ngl

[eager kelp]

Little late but I applied to poly, what's the package for that?

[pliant garnet]

apparently this is from last year

[obsidian glacier]

my god

[acoustic violet]

CRASHING OUTTT PURDUE DECISION IN 4 DAYS

[foggy void]

do you guys know the exact time the decision is released?

[odd skiff]

i read 3 30 am somewhere (india time)

[acoustic violet]

i think it’ll be at exact 5pm EST, usually depending on your country's time zone. Since I'm international, it's on 16th early morning.

[foggy void]

hmm ok thanks a lot

[tranquil finch]

i wonder who told you that

[acoustic violet]

Hmm i wonder who

[sand aurora]

I think it's a water bottle, beanie, stickers, and some other stuff

[grim sonnet]

5 days left

Purdue is amazing

[sage charm]

104 hours left lesgooo

[sand aurora]

Brutal

Hopefully that doesn't happen this year

[sinful viper]

it was rough

[drifting lintel]

is there an admitted students day?

[woeful dagger]

Woooooah

[tranquil finch]

admitted to purdue?

[woeful dagger]

Aghhh

[eager kelp]

Sick that sounds really cool

[velvet hare]

polytechnic

[eager kelp]

Yes

Please let me in cyber security 🙏🙏

Do yall think they dropped the acceptance numbers for poly this year?

[grim sonnet]

do they ship internationally?

[tulip harbor]

Nah

[tranquil finch]

aarush are you perhaps living in Middle east or india and love chess?

[grim sonnet]

India and yes

why do you ask?

[tranquil finch]

did you live in UAE at any point

[grim sonnet]

nope

[tranquil finch]

ok nvm

and when i say every single person like legit everyone

that too either fye or cs

[glad bear]

wtf is fye

[obsidian glacier]

first year engineering

[glad bear]

oh right

[glad bear]

bro who even uses these engineering acronyms 😭 theyre different for every single college

just say engineering or meche man

[obsidian glacier]

i was lazy 😭

[glad bear]

who even says fye

that cannot be an in-use acronym

[obsidian glacier]

fye is something related to purdue

so i just used it

I’m literally fucking not a finance major

[shut lotus]

But yes I’m in the business school, ask away. We’re good and they’re pouring hella resources. Come here if you are going to do mathemetical or quantitative side of business

[onyx sequoia]

3 days…

[grim sonnet]

how many students from here made it last time?

[tranquil finch]

200 gazillion

[obsidian glacier]

thats devent

decent

but considering my luck ill prolly get deferred

[acoustic violet]

What have you applied for?

[noble dune]

is it true purdues cutting down on admissions this year

because of the housing crisis from overadmitting last cycle

[tranquil finch]

not basket weaving

[eager kelp]

Yeah that’s what their president said

[ocean lichen]

Cooked

[tranquil finch]

NOOOOOOOO

THEY SHOULD CUT DOWN LIBERAL ARTS ADMISSIONS

[fringe gyro]

biochem

[obsidian glacier]

yep

im not getting in

[fringe gyro]

???

why what happened?

[eager kelp]

Idk what schools it’ll affect but I think it’s across the board, ( I could be totally wrong)

[obsidian glacier]

im just dooming dont mind me 😭

[fringe gyro]

they already dont hv many ppl applying for liberal arts in purdue

[drowsy vector]

praying...

[tranquil finch]

mightaswellreduceittonone

[drowsy vector]

who else did comp eng here

[fringe gyro]

purdue is lowkey just stem school imo

[drowsy vector]

ya

[obsidian glacier]

second major yeah

[fringe gyro]

m/f ratio is off too, but not too bad

[ocean lichen]

Same

[obsidian glacier]

(god knows why i kept it as second major)

[sage charm]

Second major

[obsidian glacier]

should have kept it as first major but it is what it is

[ocean lichen]

Comp eng is hella competitive right

[sage charm]

I'm cooked

[drowsy vector]

i did comp eng first major

uh oh

[obsidian glacier]

yeah engineering itself is competitive

[drowsy vector]

is it that difficult

o shi

[obsidian glacier]

they dont admit by major

[ocean lichen]

Cooked

I see

[obsidian glacier]

but eng is easier to get into compared to cs

so im cooked

[tranquil finch]

im cs

youre cooked

[ocean lichen]

Cs just hard everywhere

[fringe gyro]

yeah

uiuc cs is brutal

[obsidian glacier]

even im cs

😭

[fringe gyro]

purdue is still alright

[tranquil finch]

I APPLIED CS

[obsidian glacier]

nothing compared to uw

[drowsy vector]

uiuc out of state cs is brutal

[tranquil finch]

whats the required stats for uiuc cs

[drowsy vector]

wait wisconsin is brutal too?

[obsidian glacier]

washington

[tranquil finch]

for intl

[obsidian glacier]

udub

[drowsy vector]

ohhh ok nvm i didnt apply there

[obsidian glacier]

idk 1500+ like a gazillion cs related shit

[fringe gyro]

be perfect and have extraodinary ECs, major related

[drowsy vector]

i know ppl who got into umd cs and georgia tech cs but rejected form uiuc

[tranquil finch]

i dont got major related ecs

its more like debating

[obsidian glacier]

umd is pretty easy to get into apparently

umd and uw-madison

[fringe gyro]

might be lowkey cooked on that part but I dont think it will affect ur app a lot

[ocean lichen]

Isn't UIUC acceptance rate heavily inflated

Since they accept a lot of instate

And like 0 oos

[obsidian glacier]

yes

[drowsy vector]

oh im from md and everyone here talks abt the difficulty for umd cs

[obsidian glacier]

same as ut austin tbh

[obsidian glacier]

oh

[drowsy vector]

yea its tough

[obsidian glacier]

im cooked there aswell

🔥

[drowsy vector]

uwisconsin idk anything abt it

[acoustic violet]

WHATT

[ocean lichen]

I mean if ur not auto in state doesn't really help

I heard it's 8%

[obsidian glacier]

valid

[tranquil finch]

its over for you bro

[acoustic violet]

Oh great then

[tranquil finch]

give up and become a janitor

[obsidian glacier]

asian intl cs applying to ut austin

[drowsy vector]

generally for instate ppl here everyone says if ur 1520+ and 3.8+ ur usually fine

[obsidian glacier]

cooked hard

[fringe gyro]

I mean uiuc n purdue are land grant unis, they are for the instate students

[acoustic violet]

ITS OVER FOR YOU TOO

[tranquil finch]

join my janitor company

[drowsy vector]

ut austin is difficult cuz of their instate rule

[ocean lichen]

I see

[ocean lichen]

It's becoming top 5% next yr

[acoustic violet]

give up and become aqua

[tranquil finch]

im ut austin cs intl, bro it does not become more cooked

[tranquil finch]

im alraedy aqua

[ebon cipher]

I mean they say that but they probably won’t reduce it that much

[fringe gyro]

yeah so an instate student with fairly avg stats can still get in compared to intl with perfect stats

[tranquil finch]

become one with water

[drowsy vector]

oh i guess thats good

[fringe gyro]

also depends on major since both uiuc and purdue admit based on major

not many unis

do that

[drowsy vector]

r u guys all international

[fringe gyro]

yep

[tranquil finch]

NO WAIT THEY WONT REDUCE IT

[obsidian glacier]

what

[acoustic violet]

rip

[ebon cipher]

It’ll be a slight drop

[ocean lichen]

I mean there's still gonna be most auto admits

[obsidian glacier]

isnt it easy for instate to get admitted

[tranquil finch]

BECAUSE OF THE BIRTH RATE DROP 18 YEARS AGO

THERES GONNA BE LESS PEOPLE APPLYING THIS YEAR

[drowsy vector]

im talking abt cs

[fringe gyro]

probably by 5 or 7 percent

[drowsy vector]

most ppl dont get into cs and get into information science or letters of sciences or smthng

[ebon cipher]

You do realize this year is like the highest number of applications in the last couple years…

[obsidian glacier]

still 1520+ is diabolical

[drowsy vector]

yea im so cooked

[obsidian glacier]

here i am thinking ill be fine with 1460

[tranquil finch]

thats okay

[obsidian glacier]

oh boy 😭

[ebon cipher]

Look at UT they went up like 25%

[fringe gyro]

I hope so but I feel like this would be for class of 2030 (the 2026 admission cycle)

[drowsy vector]

what did u select as ur second major

[obsidian glacier]

uhhh

information sciences 💀

[ocean lichen]

Cooked

[tranquil finch]

this year is gonna be a time bomb for financial aid

less people applying

[ocean lichen]

90000 apps to ut

[drowsy vector]

wait im not trynna scare u or anything there have been instances in my school that ppl with 1300s got in but wrote killer essays so u got it trust!!

[obsidian glacier]

i aint paying like 65k per yr for information sciences

[drowsy vector]

ah same

[acoustic violet]

NAH SAME

[acoustic violet]

how do you know

[tranquil finch]

birthrate drop 18 years ago

[obsidian glacier]

some random study

[tranquil finch]

cause of financial crisis in 2007

[drowsy vector]

i thought it ws the opposite

i feel like hella ppl were born like 2006/2007

[tranquil finch]

less people applying to college in general

[drowsy vector]

ohh

[tranquil finch]

idk specifically about purdue tho

[drowsy vector]

thats good ig

[fringe gyro]

no thats valid cuz essays actually do matter as many ppl like to deny that...I mean even in their CDS its marked as important.

[tranquil finch]

but i think purdue might be affected tho

[acoustic violet]

yeah withdraw your app

[obsidian glacier]

why cant that be for this cycle 😭

[tranquil finch]

Ill withdraw your life support

[drowsy vector]

yeaaa like ik my friend who had like 1200s wrote killer essays and got into nyu... at the end of the day college apps r so random u never know what happens

[acoustic violet]

after i see my decision

[tranquil finch]

Nyu is predictable

[obsidian glacier]

mann idk

[tranquil finch]

they are the least marks centric

[tranquil finch]

nah thats too late

[obsidian glacier]

my essays were fire(they are ass if i see them now), my ecs were trash and my sat score

well

i have no comments

[fringe gyro]

if you are ED and full pay, ur there 70%

[drowsy vector]

ur sat isnt trash bro

[acoustic violet]

Dw im senior i just clicked on random flairs

[drowsy vector]

ur ecs r prolly fine dont doubt u got it

[obsidian glacier]

its cs :/

[tranquil finch]

im rd and financial aid along with intl

[ebon cipher]

It has only gone up since COVID 😭

[ocean lichen]

[ebon cipher]

The cope is crazy

[fringe gyro]

[obsidian glacier]

publics dont give aid

[drowsy vector]

[acoustic violet]

You're shocked hmm

[obsidian glacier]

nope got rejected 💔

[obsidian glacier]

😭

[drowsy vector]

same brahhhh 😦

[obsidian glacier]

chatgpt gives me delusion that i have 40% chance of acceptance

but i highly doubt it

[drowsy vector]

but i feel like u have a decent shot since ur international and idt a lot of int apply ed2

[tranquil finch]

Yeah

[acoustic violet]

thats acc really good

[tranquil finch]

I didnt think i'd find anyone living 8km from me

[obsidian glacier]

[fringe gyro]

biochem

[drowsy vector]

ohhh

[astral breach]

which doi have more chance

[tranquil finch]

theyre lying

dont believe them

[acoustic violet]

econ is better

[acoustic violet]

WOW DOXX ME

[astral breach]

econ deals with a lot of social doesnt it

[fringe gyro]

bro my stats are ass

[meager mesa]

they seem to both be quite comparable in salary outlook

[acoustic violet]

what are your stats

[obsidian glacier]

doesnt matter

[meager mesa]

how so

[drowsy vector]

no one does biochem

so u got a shot

[obsidian glacier]

sat range is pretty low for purdue non-competitive majors

so ur fine

[fringe gyro]

jobless'2029 (me)

[meager mesa]

oh right purdue admits by major

[astral breach]

mid asf 1400 sat, 98/100 boards, international so no aps ig and uhhh i have a business of my own and a finance internship

[drowsy vector]

nah at like purdue

[obsidian glacier]

wait WHAT

[acoustic violet]

Honestly I'm science student and not very well educated though, i do have a friend who got into an ivy for econ

[tranquil finch]

1600 sat, 3 research papers, rsi, isef, usamo, ipo, imo, jee advanced rank 1 2024

[ebon cipher]

Everything but engineering

[obsidian glacier]

oh

ok thank god

[drowsy vector]

1600....

[astral breach]

i have more ecs but these are related to econ or finance so i only listed those

[fringe gyro]

thank god for that, or I wouldn't even stand a chance...

[obsidian glacier]

bro u realize everyone here are indians

[sage charm]

That's far from the most impressive thing listed

[marble wagon]

I almost believed this till i saw jee rank 1

[obsidian glacier]

u lost me at adv rank 1

[drowsy vector]

its time for me to log off now wtf kms

[acoustic violet]

are you perchance in cbse??

[obsidian glacier]

he is capping

💀

[tranquil finch]

im jokinh lmao

[astral breach]

no

[astral breach]

no im not

[acoustic violet]

look at this

[tranquil finch]

if i was jee adv rank 1, id be in mit already

[drowsy vector]

oh 💀

[astral breach]

uh stateboard ig idk

[onyx sequoia]

Research is fake, don’t do it

[drowsy vector]

whats jee

[acoustic violet]

your stats are really good!

[astral breach]

[tranquil finch]

i did it

[obsidian glacier]

[obsidian glacier]

oh my

poor soul

[marble wagon]

I did two research papers lmao

[tranquil finch]

No its Rishab Jain

[obsidian glacier]

[marble wagon]

Neither were fake

[obsidian glacier]

oh

[sage charm]

Trauma in an exam

[drowsy vector]

oh

[acoustic violet]

I did..

[tranquil finch]

i did 1

and one research camp type thing

[meager mesa]

oh both are in the same college (college of business) so admit rate is the same. pick the one you genuinely prefer

[acoustic violet]

stop lying bro

[astral breach]

thanks... i d k lets see but idk if i shall choose econ or finance man. which has a better admit rate ykw yes ill go by that

[tranquil finch]

someones jealous

[astral breach]

cuz both are similar

[fringe gyro]

and u would be in the front page of my hindustan times papers and 5 institutes would claim that u did coaching through them

[eager kelp]

yeah they said theyt wanted to Reduce it cause of hte housing crissi

[astral breach]

i see. is it harder to get into either of them than cs tho?

[tranquil finch]

yeah the bank you make cause of the coaching thing is wild

[obsidian glacier]

u get like 2 cr in hand

[acoustic violet]

Yeah i remember seeing a reddit post

[obsidian glacier]

if u get air 1

[fringe gyro]

and a bmw

[eager kelp]

Yeah

[obsidian glacier]

not even 2 cr

sometimes 4 cr as well

[marble wagon]

Did that also
1 month lab research internship (no actual research just lab work), 2 hospital internships, 1 psych research paper, 1 bio research paper, 1 bio poster presentation in a national conference and some other irrelevant ecs

[eager kelp]

hopefully I get in, I applied for Cyber Security

Poly take me pleaseee 🙏

[meager mesa]

it’s easier than cs

[obsidian glacier]

oo

wait

so

do u have to get into cs

to do cyber sec

or is it completely another major

[tranquil finch]

I did one presentation in a symposium

surely that counts

[sage charm]

Is polytechnic considered worse than a normal purdue degree or does it not matter

[eager kelp]

Completely other major

[marble wagon]

Cool

[obsidian glacier]

which major bro

[eager kelp]

No?

[obsidian glacier]

ooo damn

[marble wagon]

Ofc it does lol

[acoustic violet]

Nono for what i know its different

[fringe gyro]

I heard its relatively chill like not too tough to get in, I know someone with 24 ACT score got in

[marble wagon]

Genetics

[eager kelp]

Yeah it sounds really cool

[obsidian glacier]

thank god

[eager kelp]

Yeah well did he apply for cyber security?

[obsidian glacier]

yeahh

[fringe gyro]

finally bio student

🙂

[marble wagon]

Bio W

[fringe gyro]

yep

[fringe gyro]

fr

[acoustic violet]

I'm applying fye for aerospace

[marble wagon]

Eng n cs r so basic /j

[eager kelp]

Cause poly itself is 50 somethin % but when I went to a like purdue information session in person they said Cyber Was at the higher end of the stats so it's prolly lower than that

[tranquil finch]

Yeah they're building a rocket for me

[acoustic violet]

WHO SAID

[tranquil finch]

YOU

imagine not remembering the contract

[marble wagon]

🚀

[obsidian glacier]

they want to get rid of u permanently /j

[fringe gyro]

oh he is indy resident

[sage charm]

Aerospace is soo cool I would do it if I was smart

[acoustic violet]

I SWEAR

[tranquil finch]

They cappin

[fringe gyro]

guys this is crazy, I might see u guys in a few months if we all get accepted and eventually commit

[marble wagon]

Gotta be envious of in state ppl, purdue tuition is basically nothing compared to oos 💀

[acoustic violet]

Manefestingg ahhh

[marble wagon]

Manifesting

[acoustic violet]

I'm not

[tranquil finch]

Nah yall better hope you dont see me, Im pu with an airsoft gun

[marble wagon]

In my head i’ve already started making a pros n cons list of purdue vs other unis even though acceptances havent come out 💀

[fringe gyro]

thats me ong

[sage charm]

I'm pulling up with a REAL gun if i get rejected

[fringe gyro]

I was like if i get both uiuc and purdue...I might need a month to decide

[tranquil finch]

Im choosing UIUC

It has more quants than most ivies

its like 2nd to mit

for quant

[marble wagon]

If i get purdue it’ll be Purdue vs uab (got a rllyyyy good scholarship in uab) and if i get usc with fin aid both r blown out of the water lol

[eager kelp]

Well that would make it easier lmao

[fringe gyro]

yeahh, but u should be fine if u have got good SAT

essays

ecs

gpa

everything

[marble wagon]

Everyone is good by that criteria lol

[tranquil finch]

i'd be chilling if thats the case

[marble wagon]

By that logic missing even one means u r toast

Remove sat and i’m chillin for purdue (purdue pls ignore sat score i hate tests)

[fringe gyro]

at least they take LORs unlike UIUC😔

[marble wagon]

Very important

I’m toast

Wait what if u dont have a class rank

[fringe gyro]

nah but if ur in the middle 50% or slightly above it for ur major

it shouldn't be a problem

[marble wagon]

🤞

[fringe gyro]

thats why it only says considered

its not rlly imp

[marble wagon]

1500+ ppl plz go to eng/cs

Stay away from bio

[fringe gyro]

this year its not test optional

[marble wagon]

Yea test flexible

[eager kelp]

Yeah i'm in the 50% for poly so hopefully i;m good

[marble wagon]

Wait uiuc doesnt take lors? 💀

[fringe gyro]

nope

not used at all

at least they are test optional

ig

[marble wagon]

Well i was expecting to get rejected from atleast one of my targets. It’ll be uiuc then

[fluid sequoia]

woah

wrote this for my purdue essay

💀

novemebr

[sage charm]

absolute cinema

[fringe gyro]

oh damn

[marble wagon]

It happens every year?

[fringe gyro]

yeah

[tranquil finch]

its almost as if it was a prediction

[fringe gyro]

wait is this why purdue or why major

[marble wagon]

Damn, i thought this year was an exception. Cursed in a way

[fluid sequoia]

i think alternate major

[marble wagon]

Imagine writing that for why purdue, “i wanna come to purdue cuz its cold with no wildfire chances”

[fringe gyro]

I glazed purdue so much in the why us essay

like they hv to take me in after glazing them so much

😭

[pliant garnet]

No way me too

[fringe gyro]

LMAO

[fluid sequoia]

TWINSS

[marble wagon]

I took a weird route with the why purdue essay, i wrote it as a day in my life in purdue

Just listing stuff i liked seemed boring. Def over scheduled in the imaginary day in my life though, basically a weeks worth of work in a day 🤣

[fluid sequoia]

interesting take

[drifting lintel]

Praying I get honors college

AND A SCHOLARSHIP

🙏🙏

[fringe gyro]

yeah thats nice, defintely going to be impressive

[marble wagon]

You’ll get it

Idt purdue gives alot of scholarships though

[drifting lintel]

Wednesday is gonna be a field day at my school

Purdue and IU decision day

[marble wagon]

IU is on the same day? damn the indiana showdown

[brave python]

should I seriously consider purdue if I get in as a student from the carolinas

[drifting lintel]

I think like 500-600 ppl apply to Purdue every year at my school

Roughly 300 get in

[pliant garnet]

Yes

[marble wagon]

Depends on your reqs, like if cost isnt a problem then its chill to be open minded abt it n actually consider it

If cost is a factor just go to unc or carolina state raleigh etc (in state is def cheaper)

[brave python]

even if i recievered zero merit and had to pay full price it would still be in my budget

cost aside i would seriously consider NCSU engineering over purdue

[brave python]

yea

[marble wagon]

Then add it to your list lol, u arent gonna lose anything. Weigh the pros n cons n decide

[brave python]

already applied bucko just waiting

[marble wagon]

I meant your uni shortlist
Like i have a list of unis that i’d consider going to if i get accepted

[brave python]

true

my shortlist is like ncsu unc purdue grainger and vtech

and ig uncc if i dont get into any of those

uncc is so ahh tho

[fringe gyro]

oh why

[marble wagon]

Cuz of the campus?

[obsidian glacier]

charlotee?

idk spelling

[marble wagon]

I thought of applying n the only remotely appealing things were the cost and the metro

[brave python]

i dont wanna hate on uncc but it would just be hs part too and idk if the cs there is worth $30k/yr

like why is my safety more expensive than all the reaches on my list 💀

[marble wagon]

💀

[brave python]

ong

[marble wagon]

My reaches r all x10 more expensive than my safeties

which is why even if i get in i aint going 💀
Throwing money at undergrad seems stupid

[fringe gyro]

did u get any scholarship for psu?

[brave python]

ik

[tranquil finch]

i got a form

[brave python]

save money

[tranquil finch]

for engineering

[marble wagon]

Nope
Checked the website n apparently there r only 2 oos merit scholarships others u have to apply after admitted

[fringe gyro]

this is why purdue is my top choice, compared to other schools it has a fair fees for intl

[tranquil finch]

scholarships

[fringe gyro]

although if I got scholarhip in any other I would throw it all away

[marble wagon]

Its why Purdue was my top choice, it still kinda is but i’m contemplating whether its worth the extra 20k compared to uab

[brave python]

purdue is definetly not my top choice but its definetly cheap

[fringe gyro]

thats me for UMN

[pliant garnet]

What’s ur top choice

[marble wagon]

Did u get a scholarship? I applied rd cuz i heard they give out good scholarships

[pliant garnet]

What could be better than purdue 😔

[brave python]

unc/ncsu for financial reasons

[tranquil finch]

ivy

[brave python]

IU Bloomington!

[marble wagon]

Woah

Thats wild

[pliant garnet]

https://purduerejects.com

[drifting lintel]

I think you have to apply EA to qualify for scholarships

[brave python]

unless purdue lets me in of course

[fringe gyro]

yeah they do, lot of my oos friends got scholarships

[marble wagon]

Damn, k too cold anyways

[marble wagon]

I didnt know abt the uni before otherwise would have applied ea 1

finished all my apps except uw seattle n umn ea

[fringe gyro]

the most appealing factor is its not in the middle of nowhere

[brave python]

better lock in for that uw

[marble wagon]

Yea

[brave python]

minnisota is worse than the middle of nowhere

[karmic parcel]

scholarshops are not that common

i believe

[marble wagon]

Why purdue 😔

[sage charm]

purdue cool

me cool

me purdue

[marble wagon]

5k and i would commit in a heartbeat

[karmic parcel]

on my flight, both of the people i sat next to were profs from IU bloomington

[pliant garnet]

Damn my condolences

[karmic parcel]

they gave me 15k and i committed quick

[pliant garnet]

Wait how r u eating rn

Assuming u are

[karmic parcel]

nah it was fire

[pliant garnet]

All dining halls are closed

[karmic parcel]

i did doordash

[marble wagon]

By any chance were u wearing a purdue hoodie

[karmic parcel]

im more broke now

[marble wagon]

THEY GAVE U 15K

[karmic parcel]

[marble wagon]

lol

[pliant garnet]

There’s a lotta notre dame ppl on my flight rn

[karmic parcel]

yea i was blessed

[pliant garnet]

Can’t find any purdudes 😔

[karmic parcel]

yea from detroit to indy it was more purdue, but from philly to detroit, it was more notre dame

i was suprised to see a purdue person in philly

[marble wagon]

Purdue gimme this kind of luck, i wont even question whether i should go somewhere else. Direct commitment

[karmic parcel]

i didnt even get their highest scholarship

[marble wagon]

damn

Are u in honors?

I heard scholarships r mostly for honors students

[karmic parcel]

nah

i am not in honors

i was not feeling writing 750 words

[marble wagon]

Me lmao

[karmic parcel]

and im still not feeling it

im applying to undergrad research and its 500 words

i had to write a 2k word essay last semester for my english final, i wrote my heart out for the paper, and i only hit 1k

[marble wagon]

Research is worth the 500 words
Harder classes meh

[karmic parcel]

u know how bad it is to write a research paper and get the research and do all the work, just for u to fall short of 1k words on the word count

[marble wagon]

2k in an exam room or 2k over a period of like 1 week

[karmic parcel]

this lead to repitition

[lucid flint]

Literally me

purdues gonna come out at 5 pm est tho i think

so after school 🙏

[karmic parcel]

it was supposed to be over a period of like 3 weeks

i did it all in two days

it was the last final i did

[drifting lintel]

Wait what’s the highest level scholarship

Do they give full rides

[lucid flint]

no

😭

unless fin aid i think

[drifting lintel]

😔

I mean

Purdue is hella cheap for instate anyways

[lucid flint]

true god bless

[marble wagon]

Weirdly i do, worked on a research paper over the summer and i literally had like 20 tabs open n still couldnt hit the word count my supervisor gave even after staring at my laptop for days

[karmic parcel]

it is but i not getting it

[marble wagon]

ironically every other ‘research’ project i’ve done i ended up overwriting 💀
Like school essays, ib ee, psych research paper etc. Depends on the topic

[marble wagon]

Manifest lol

[karmic parcel]

16k for oos, and 10k for in state

[karmic parcel]

ive alr been rejected from 3 different programs

for undergrad research

[marble wagon]

Maybe 4th is gonna be your lucky one

[drifting lintel]

So basically no tuition for in state
