Idk i havent seen the bathrooms
Someone posted a pic of the meredith bathrooms in the 29 server n it was just a curtain instead of a door
Idk how thats allowed like cβmon give ppl a door
Never done it but sounds sucky.
Iβm honestly too comfy rn with my private bathroom connected to my room n walk in closet π
Purdue gonna teach me life skills ig lol
Yeahhhh
It sucks terribly
Probably doesnβt help that one time I had to do that it was for a week with no hot water so i was taking cold showers π
Iβd be a cs major for a week n not shower if its cold π
I HATE cold water, even if its summer
Bro it was terrible
Like atrocious
With curtains
And it was like half walls to like therrr was only a wall like past your knees
Eh little below that
But not full walls
Yikes
Yeahhh it was terrible
gsp is always in earhart
its different in every dorm
honors has a stall (like a bathroom stall) door and then an actual curtain for the shower. windsor is just the curtain
idk taybf has a private bathroom so i just use that atp but im back in honors next year and thats sufficient for me
Lessgoo, heard Earhart is one of the nicer dorms
What abt hilly
um hilly i think its just a curtain because its a suite style bathroom and you can lock the doors so nobody can come in
Oh yeahhhh
just make sure you like
unlock when youre done so your suitemates can also shower/use bathroom
Any idea abt earhart bathrooms? All ik is they r better than meredith lol
ive been screening articles for a scoping review all week and ive done like 200 articles since clocking in today at like 1:40
oh lmao yeah
unfortunately i have no clue i am sorry
id just picture generic communal bathrooms. probably 3 toilet stalls, 3 or 4 sinks, and like 3 showers with a curtain
Its fine, guess iβll have to save some suspense for move in day lol
Curtains π
Crossing my fingers for doors, the idea of not being able to lock while showering is disturbing/weird
at least in windsor theres 2 layers of curtains idrk how else to explain it
but theres one curtain into the little changing station with a bench/hooks for towels, and then theres another curtain into the actual shower
earhart may also have a private bathroom or two but idk for sure
Oh thats good
Trust u do not wanna know what iβm imagining rn, like just a thin curtain in a very small box that the uni calls a shower
Thats how my friend describe communal bathrooms here π
I aint getting those, ranked the cheaper dorms higher aka double > triple/double/quad without ac > triple/quad with ac
Hi π
Hey
Gotta get used to it ig lol
Also do yk if they pair intl students with intl students as roommates or is it entirely based on the questionnaire matches
the private bathrooms for a floor are shared with the whole floor. idk what dorms all have them but both honors and windsor have a few bathrooms per floor that is just the door it locks and then theres one toiler, sink, and shower in it. its mostly meant to be the accesible bathrooms as the other communals are not very accessible
in GSP they will pair an intl student with a domestic student
and in general its just entirely based on questionaire matches
Yessss
Not that i didnt want another intl but itβd be cool to have a roomie who didnt grow up in the exact same environment. Smth new
That sounds confusing ngl π
So they r like communal bathrooms in the sense where a large number of ppl share it but they r different cuz its an individual bathroom for one person at a time compared to communal being one big bathroom with a row of shower stalls?
yeah thats like the whole point of GSP actually
yeah you got it
so like for example in the windsor bathrooms theyre very large and have 4 sinks, 3 toilets, and 3 showers in the communal style and then within the bathroom there are 2 minibathrooms (also with toiler + shower + sink) in which you can lock it. so its still communal in that you share it, but it is single-use
Ik, thats why i applied lol. I didnt know the lc controlled roommate pairing though, assumed it just meant weβd be living on the same floor/building
idk how other LCs do it, but i do know specifically that GSP does it that way
Sounds good, hope earhart has smth like that. I think iβd get used to communal at some point but nice to have other options
its defo a shock at first but youll adjust
Btw whats it like being an RA. U said u became one recently right
so I got hired on to start this upcoming academic year
so like I'll be starting in August
but i just know a lot of shit already because taybf is one and then i am very good friends with a couple others
mhm, im excited
rip windsor they wanted me so bad but honors poached me
Honors picking the best at the speed of light lol.
Alot of my friends r going to be in the honors dorm this time.
maybe they will end up being my residents LOL
but yeah i think honors gets kinda first pick a bit because to be in RA in honors you have to be in honors and theres less honors students applying compared to non-honors students so they need to make sure they can get a full staff
purdue honors is >
in general i think honors at public unis is very underrated
but tbh most people apply for the dorms
Ngl i think i would have applied for the dorms if i had known π€£
While applying i assumed honors was just harder classes n thought why make stuff harder than it needs to be
yeahh no tbh the honors classes like the actual HONR classes are stupid easy
the contracted/honors sections can depend, i personally contracted psych classes so it would be easy and then any research for credit automatically counts anyways and same with any level 500 class
I just realized that since i have usa citizenship Iβm technically classified as out of state π
So would i be considered the domestic student n be paired with an intl? Or will they look at my current location n consider me as intl
Everything is better than Meredith lol
not wiley
Is Wiley that bad
the main thing with Meredith is that they have no ac and a nonexistent community. Their common area tends to be lacking and it looks like a retirement home lol
people say Tark is bad but the community and the whole tark shark identity counteracts the downsides of living there
Finally got to see Purdue's campus today! Holy cow, it is huge!
yeahh its so nice, i love it :D
Yeaah, it is awesome! Honestly, it's so big it almost scares me a bit-
tbh once u get used to it, u know ur way around it rly rly well
but yeah campus is lovely, especially ag side of campus
Ikr
Not cuz of getting lost but have to walk to class most of the time so π
My friend at msu said some of her classes r on literal opposite sides of the campus n she has only a 30 min break between them. Race against time
Understandable, the pics r horrifying π
Canβt get worse lol
there are no bathroom doors? 
10 minutes in between classes π
Worth it? Yes 100%
Affordable? Def no
Imma wait until maybe 3rd year to consider spending money like that
Bro Iβm in Shreve next year
Shreve is one of the good ones right? One of my friends is in shreve n didnt look bad
Itβs aight
I wanna reward myself if I can for my third year
Hopefully Frieda/winifred or first street
I aint ever paying for first street. Max iβd go is off campus or hilly. Hilly suits seems ideal
my bf is in a hilly suite
Dk anything abt frieda/winifred
Steal his shower fr
lol
I saw a price chart and at least for the double room hilly rates are pretty in line with the rest. It is more expensive than non AC rooms though
Freida is mostly upperclassmen and Winifred is mostly honors overflow but they have been adding in more non honors people
They are pretty new
Built within the last 10 years or so
Nice places to live
Oh okay, i didnt look tbh. Assumed hilly was mainly suites
it is, the suites are comparable in price to other doubles
a hilly suite is cheaper than a large windsor double
and on par with an honors double
Ohhh k
I was comparing it with the cheaper doubles
does anyone know
how i can appeal to a new major
before i attend
i got in for ai
but i want to do cs
i wouldnt attend for Ai
so this is really important to me
:(
the ai programs good tho π
but there should be an appeal form in ur admissions portal somewhere
u can also email admissions asking what the process is, they get back rly quickly (its friday so maybe not)
switching from cs to ai is rly rly tough tho, they know a lot of ppl apply ai and then wanna switch into cs, and they purposefully are making it rly annoying
which has the unfortunate byproduct of restricting me from getting a double major 
i did they jsut ghosted π
its not lol
at least for me
i dont wanna take philosphy and ethics courses
like 5-8 of them
i thought double major in cs from ai is doable
in terms of getting in
oh lmao
those are easy as hell
and lowk kinda fun
but anyway
ehhhhh
im unable to
a few of my ai friends are unable to
but then also i have a convoluted math pathway, so that could be a large factor
so basically if u choose purdue, assume that ur not getting the double major, thats the best way to go
oh yea then im def not coming to purdue lmao
i was assuming that double major in cs is free
Anyone know how you can post on commitments?
waittt you got into uiuc?
I did not get in directly but I did get into the parkland pathways program where I am able to dorm at UIUC, take classes at UIUC while being dual enrolled at parkland college (a community college nearby in the Urbana Champaign area). I get access to every facility and resource UIUC offers while paying a cheaper tuition rate (community college rate) for both parkland and UIUC classes
But the program was really selective this year so Iβm still proud of my decision regardless
And no college debt, yay!
Thanks!!
It does all work out in the end :))
No Purdue but did get into this program last week!
Really grateful π
Might as well add that after two years you get guaranteed admission into your major to UIUC
it truly does π
whoaa that's fire
dude didnt you apply for engineering or somethin?
I did
But Iβm thinking about switching to cs+ linguistics in this program because itβs a way better fit for me
omg so you get to pursue engineering at uiuc?
And I really am beginning to hate physics after taking AP physics c π
damnn that's fire
Yes but probably will be doing cs+linguistics
real
that's actually so cool, congratulations mate!
Hate e and m with a passion
Thanks! Congrats on Purdue!!
thank you!
ay you too dawg!
Tysm π
DM mod mail with proof of commitment with like a deposit, and then like your discord in the corner
Purdue casually making a quantifiably greater impact than Harvard despite having 8% the endowment
purdue π―
hell yeah
gods plan
e and m sucks
if you take physics in college, mechanics is very chill and e and m is not
Yeah hopefully I never have to take that class again
I'm in E&M for my AP Physics C class and I love it, so I think this kind of depends a bit.
Do you want to do ece?
just curious
Meh, I kind of just like physics!
Gotcha
Kind of wanna do more physics stuffs in college, but engineering seems interesting as well~
Physics mentioned
E&M is badass compared to intro mechanics
Yeaaah, I absolutely love E&M! Although learning about Orbits in Mechanics was pretty awesome too.
I went to an IB high school and the coolest thing I did back then was the special relativity option unit
Yeah I remember orbits being cool
A Molniya orbit ( Russian: ΠΠΎΠ»Π½ΠΈΡ, IPA: [ΛmolnΚ²ΙͺjΙ] , "Lightning") is a type of satellite orbit designed to provide communications and remote sensing coverage over high latitudes. It is a highly elliptical orbit with an inclination of 63.4 degrees, an argument of perigee of 270 degrees, and an orbital period of approximately half a sid...
Whoaaa, special relativity in high school is awesome!
Lol I got 100% on the exam for that unit and felt like Einstein. It was a lot of fun
Circuits in high school, less fun
Lmk if you have questions about the physics major or anything @lapis panther
Uuuu, of course!
@pliant garnet Do you know how we find out about LC decisions is it just an email or is it in our housing portal somehwere?
i dont remember exactly
i think i got an email
for data mine
I got mine in June lol
maybe the less competitive ones come in may
ive never heard of people getting rejected except for data mine, epics, and larson leaders
youre probably fine
eh if you applied by apr 15 itll prolly be out by may
ig if it was post 15 april, the decision would come by late june-early july
Makes sense, the gsp questions werent even related to qualifications or the llc itself. Just whats your major n hobbies to match with a mentor
I applied for EPICS on May 13th and got a decision June 6th
so give them about a month to send out decisions
yall will probably get them in may. the reason why we got ours in June is cause all the deadlines were pushed back last year cause of fafsa
the commit deadline was pushed to May 15th/June 1st I believe
Ah okay
That makes sense
purduel,;.,.,.,,.. take me .. plz.
(co30)
damn co'30 is here, we've officially reached unc stat
there are hs'2028 peeps here π
Withdrew! Good luck to everyone on the waitlist :-))
You are now officially uncs like us
Time for the joint pain cream π¨βπ¦³
i need you to sponsor some of it π
YES DIR
NICEE!!!
Wait did you have to accept your offer to get into the career portal thing
No
U have to accept your offer to apply for housing though
Cause I went through to the career thing and it said βaccept your offerβ button after making a password
No not a second one
just the original from being deferred
whats the chance i get accepted to the physics data science lc?
i want that so bad its literally my dream
I have a friend who was just accepted off the waitlist, and I want to room with him, however I also want to do the data mine and applied for it already under the impression I was gonna go random. How long do I have to change my roommate so I can be with him, and how does it work since I met priority and he didnβt for the housing deadline
Email housing for that, they should be o accommodating
I would assume p good, iirc only a select few lcs are competitive, like data mine
hey i just got admitted off the purdue waitlist, and am planning to decommit from a diff uni and commit to purdue
is it too late in terms of housing and everything
you will get housing
it will not be your first choice housing (although freshman rarely ever get that anyways unless theyre being realistic with their expecations) but all freshman are guarenteed housing
ooh what major
sorry i meant data mine physics
idk why i said data science
When they do, they release all decisions at the same time
Yep
π i hope my essays were good enough
π glgl
Data mine has been so so so worth it tho omg
its literally what i wrote abt in my purdue app essay for my future goals lol
oh are you in it?
Yeahh!
which sub group?
Itβs so underrated holy crap
I did vip last sem, im in general this sem, and corp part next sem
oh thats cool!
Still in vip, but left the class
i didnt know you could just change around like that
Oh u def can, as long as ur taking the one credit seminar, u can hop around all u want
And once u get in general cohort, u can take corp part or vip any other year, and way more easy to get in
wait thats pretty nice wow
tbh i didnt really like purdue before but now i kinda do
cause of the data mine physics thing
SAME I was kinda biased against it, but now I love it so so much
Iβm so glad I chose here
Dramamine physics mentioned
LMAO dramamine
Datamine
Yes physics datamine is great
Dramamine π₯
yeah
im waitlisted π
i would 100% go just let me in π₯Ί
data science
got it, tysm
yay hopefully i get in π
if I got off the waitlist and Im already enrolled at a university, do I have to withdraw my application to that university before enrolling at purdue?
Or can I enroll first then withdraw later
What do u consider as realistic, like suits n apartments r understandably unrealistic n wild to expect as a freshman but what about doubles?
doubles and triples with or without ac should be what you expect as a freshman
π€for a double
My friend got stuck in a quad last year idk if she applied by the priority deadline though
the university shoves people into any space they have
oil up π₯

Ok unc
if my gpa progression is 1.3 -> 2.7 -> 3.57 ish
and if i can pull off like a 3.9 or something in hs senior could i get into purdue AI
Didnt know a 1.3 gpa was even possible until now π
it is possible if you flunk 90% of the tests that happen in class and have a 14% attendance rate
tbh missed many classes as a HS freshman because of covid (i didnt have covid but lockdown and shi) and i used a lot of the time to learn stuff like video editing and programming which helped me land paid internships and stuff now
Maybe thats something worth mentioning on apps? Idk
Goddamn
Lock in for senior year u should be fine, idt unis care too much abt freshman year. Just apply n see what happens
- Iβd avoid blaming covid cuz that affected everyone n it singles u out unless u had a valid reason aka health issues, family crisis, death in family etc
- Def mention whatever u did n accomplished

wait up ts is an actual job??
it aint just a stupid term?
ngl the work looks sigma af
Yes lol itβs a real job
WTF IS THIS FREAK ASS COLLEGE π
withdrawing later today good luck anyone on wl π«‘
Current students will doing priority housing give me a good chance at a better dorm
youre more likely to get your preferred roommate(s) and not get put into a converted conference room dorm
Do not have a roommate yet lol
should i be looking for roommates if i applied for lcs? or is it not worth it cause we might not get our top choices?
idk personally i went random and for my first two roommates it went fine
Most people I know went random
Itβs really hit or miss tho
Iβve heard a mix of friends forever to we chill to my roommates suck
And everything in between
Itβs really hit or miss
One thing I will say tho in general is donβt room with your high school bestie. That has the highest probability of going downhill
whoops
hmmmmmmmmm
you can pair with someone...pairing will break if you get different lcs tho
i roomed with one of my closest friends from hs
and were chill, gonna room next year as well
u shud be fine
okay cool lets say u and ur friend applied to the data mine but one physics and one vip if we get accepted into diff parts of the data mine we can still dorm together in hilly right?
Yeah
okay yay sounds great
Did u apply physics or vip
Eyyyy hell yeah
One thing id recommend tho is to reach out to current students in the labs ur interested in
Cuz some labs are⦠meh
ooh over the summer rn?
While others are rly rly rly good
I mean it canβt hurt, worst case if u donβt get in fall, youβll definitely get in spring
wait how does vip work do you get put into a random research group or do you get to choose out of diff ones
hmm ur right
And I got rejected from vip initially lmao, but I just emailed some dude at the top to pleaaaase let me in and they were like βsure π β
U get to pick out of a list (assuming thereβs space in them, if ur registration slot is late, then u may not be able to)
Lemme send the list
wait so after getting into vip you have to lock in again and race for a spot on the team you want? π
HUUH that sounds terrible
ooh i alr looked at some of them
But more like u get a time slot for ur registration
i mentioned the AI OMICS one in mine
And at that time u can then register for the teams
oh so its just luck
interesting
ai hell yeah
yeah
OKAY TY
but some of the groups, u can email the lead and theyβll be like βsure π β and open a slot for u
Or if u rly rly like a group, u can ask to join the lab without taking vip
hmmm okay thank you for the insider info lol
also
if we are planning to take calc II over the summer and transfer it do we talk to our advisors as soon as we can?
idk when our advisors talk to us
yeah just email ur advisor like βoh im taking calc 2 whatβs the process to waive itβ
Late summer
I did that for psych
And the process is that theyβll initially register u for Calc 2
And then once ur credits come in, then just drop the course
OHHH but would you still be able to take calc III that fall semester
Or since itβs Calc 2, u donβt even have to register for it
or do you have to wait till the spring one
Yep
omg okay sounds good
ohh ok
btw do i need to be a physics major to do the physics data mine lc?
i wanna do it so badly but im going for comp engineering
Has anyone here appealed and gotten their decision back yet
Guys I put the wrong birthplace in my Purdue's NOI, now my I-20 form is wrong. I emailed the ISS about this problem, they told me to create an e-form to ask a counselor, and I did so, but I haven't heard anything from them for a week (they said please wait 5 full business days before I email them again asking for a status update). What should I do? Should I email them again? Can my I-20 be renewed? Have anyone encountered this problem before?
i would email them again
it can be renewed well depends on how purdue does it ig
but u should be able to correct it dw
give them some time
thanks guys
purdue
@pliant garnet how does the ai major differ from the computer science major at purdue?
philosphy requirements
u dont need as much cs classes
for how filled cs is
its a good alternative
but compE still better
I assume you also take some more advanced ML/AI classes as a junior or senior as well
just look up the curriculum
Well yeah but I was also interested in his experience / thoughts of the program
because itβs sort of a unique major
you can ask @pliant garnet
I did π
.
@pliant garnet get your ass over here
mb just woke up lmaooo
so its rly rly similar to cs, it just has a few things different. Firstly, u dont learn C like the cs majors do. Itβs all python. U get more ml ai classes in third and fourth years. And thereβs more psych and phil classes
Thatβs a small gripe i have, they donβt differentiate it as much like the other schools, like Penn focuses a ton on optimization, which is rly nice. But if ur looking for a major rly rly similar to cs, then youβll like the ai major
I kind of like the phil and psych courses cuz theyβre easy lol, and theyβre actually kinda fun. Iβm learning stuff in those classes and then i actually see them get applied in other things im doing, like my research, so itβs cool when that happens
rn my cs classes are rly basic since itβs freshman year gen eds, so im not rly learning anything at an applicable level yet. Next year however will have rly nice courses, so im excited for that
What classes are you taking next year?
I got kinda screwed over for a very stupid reason, but I think Iβll be taking cs243: intro to ai, stat350: intro to stat, phil25601?: ethics of ai, tdm211: internship for credit, pes116: golf!!!
And I may be forgetting one
Are you excited for 243?
Does anyone know where to find a class of 29 gc
u get invited to it iirc
at least thats the case for me
From who
a friend of mine
Discord server or insta?
Either
Dmed u
can you dm me too please?
dude can i have it too
Man this sounds much cooler than what Iβll have to study in cs
nah someone will clown on you for being an ai major
that someone being me
besides there is a machine learning track or sth like that in the purdue cs degree
i would recommend the compE concentration
for machine learning and ai
absolutely not
CE is a horrible major if ur not into computer hardware
You do realize this, a concentration that's literally just for software engineering
As well as almost computers
The matrix allows for it a decent amount of customization for how much software and hardware you want to do
Now, yes, you're still gonna have to take hardware classes, but it is easier to get into than computer science
If you plan out your schedule, you might not have to take more than a few
but fye and the ce part of the major is still a huge part
like circuits and e&m and stuff will still be ur main major
and then ur selectives would be ai
fye is ez tf u on about
fye
is hard
in teh way that
it is set up
to fuck u over if you dont instantly suceed
its not easy, engr 133 is fucking ass
engr 132 is just beyond things
the classes are made for you to question ur intelligence and validity in choosing engineering
no like the circuitry and stuff
i aint doing that
There ainβt no circuitry in fye
computer engineering my guy
if u wanna do ai
ce is not the way to go
Oh
u gotta explore the ce degree
weirdly enough fye is hard for the fact its tedious not content wise but just setup, the other years are hard cause the content is hard
Sure
Done
133 is much better than doing 131+132
they all suck but the fact that we get it over in one semester + get to do more hands on work via epics/vip + and have it count for the science, tech, and society gen ed credit is pretty good
we got lucky with it
thanks!
ong
if i want to sign up for a purdue online summer course, how do i do so? and am i too late π (i want to take physics 17200)
it says to make an appointment w/ my advisor but im going to purdue next year so idk how that works
can i even do that as a hs senior going to purdue in fall 2025?
Idk how it is as a senior in hs, but registration for summer session ends around like when classes start, so u got a while
But id email either ur advisor, or just the summer session administration
What is like the mandatory general classes needed as a cs/ds major
you can find that on the course catalog
for 2025
this the stuff you should look for
The Purdue course catalog bulletin lets you search for every class and course for every major offered at the West Lafayette/Indianapolis campus.
Thanks
Just curious, do you already have chem credit or do you need to take chem during the school year
should i go to pitt or tulane for engineering?
pitt
thanks ill do that!
doing ap chem rn so i think ill have credit
gotcha
if you did not, I would have suggested you do chem over the summer
cause physics is more chill in person compared to chem
100 percent pitt
unless you really care about the party scene
ohh ok
thanks tho!
no problem
Damn Purdue is still reviewing appeal requests
I submitted mine 3.5 weeks ago and I emailed to ask how long it would take and they didnβt even give me a time frame π
Purdue be underresourced at times
I GOT IN
off the waitlist
AHH
if I commit now how cooked am I for housing?
and how much are yall paying to go here
(and how long do I have to accept)
Prolly may first
No clue, I would submit sooner than later tho
Iβm going to be paying about full price (45k)
Their website says three weeks for ppl who got off the waitlist to accept
Guys 20k for UTD or 45k for Purdue?
what are job opportunities like for CS majors here?
and about how long does it take for my financial aid to show up? it still says my FAFSA is in review
just got off the waitlist let's goo
JUST GOT OFF WAITLISTTT
congrats! me too
hi !! where would i find the option to decline my offer
wait guys how do u see ur financial aid offer
i just created the career account
i clicked next steps and got this idk
oh what i got off for cs
Is it available rn
Yeah I don't have it yet either
not for me
i made the mycareer account, i clicked new student task list, and clicked financial aid, if u wanna check it yourself
ye cant do it on the phone
declined my offer
What major
Computer science
Oh mb
Hmmm
I donβt know twin can you afford it?
And do you like the west laf life
Yeahh I may take like 20k debt over 4 years
Idek
Purdue has lots to offer
But nothing outside of campus
Personally Iβm a stupid one so I study a lot
And I go to clubs and boom summer break is here
Hi bits
yeah it depends on what ur looking for in a college
even then, utd is better than purdue, yale, pittsburgh's entire concept as a city, and the steelers combined
Oh ong
if ur a nerd like us, then purdue is perfect :D
It depends whether you like the city
go to utd
Or whether you want an attractive partner
debt is bad, but 20k is less time wasted than 45k
I love when I go from crying over my mental health and then taking 300mg of caffeine and immediately feel like dying
im doing my procastinated interview
in a bit
didnt do a lick of studying
today
after 4 am
Me but the entirety of the week
I have 4 midterms im so cooked
ONG
now i gotta do this interivew
its not that i dont know what to say
idk how to articulate it in a way that sounds right
without rambling
Purdu
Purdu
are LLC apps still open for incoming students?
u submitted one as well
but it will probably take more time
since they care mpre abt waitlisted kids
purud
pudrue
pudrue
I LOVE DA PURDUZZZ
purdue our beloved
Yes
@sinful viper sorry for ping, but like for the hilly suites, do we have to clean the bathroom ourselves or will there be a janitor like in the other halls
i mean its up to u lol
i say yes 
but whatever u feel is best
how rigorous are the courses there
theyβre rly rly rigorous
purdue grades are p deflated too
does the campus ever feel really crowded considering there's so many undergraduates
not at all! the campus is rly big, and it never rly feels crowded. Maybe once in a blue moon a dining hall serves something rly special so then it gets extremely crowded lol
But except for those rare occasions, Iβve never rly felt it to be uncomfortably crowded
are clubs and such ever overloaded with people?
This place is too large that you will only ever see.At most a thousand people. In one place, and even then it's not that crowded
Weirdly enough no
The biggest club I know only has a few hundred people
But there seems to be multiple versions of some of these clubs
So you should be fine
Purdueis really walkable
Really, really walkable, you can get almost anywhere on campus with your own two feet
Because of that, and because of how large it is campus, never really feels as big as it should feel
There's sixty thousand people here, but it doesn't feel like you're seeing sixty thousand people at once
It feels like you're seeing a set of small towns of a thousand people at one point in time, usually midday
From my day to day life, I see at most a few hundred people.Now that it's finals
neat!
hi guys, might be a dumb question but does anyone know how to defer an offer from purdue to next year please?
purdue
One of my friends did that so he can get internships and explore stuff before uni and i heard that he just sent a mail to admissions
bro shoudlve just asked me they do have a janitor but just for your shitter
i asked admission office, this is the link they gave: https://admissions.purdue.edu/gapyear/index.php
Purdue CS degree = license to print money
youβll have a service staff come clean once a week
ford last night
and the wiley line in general
Yeah
I got there hella early so didnβt have a problem
i got there past 8 and it was packed
But when I was leaving the line was so so long
the salad line was three times larger than usual
and so was ice cream
the only difference was they were giving ice cream cones
Ikrrr
okay but ford last night was so worth
the funnel fries were really good
the bratwurst was so bad though
it made me depressed
Half the stuff was not there when I went
it wasnβt even bratwurst it was just italian sausage
Either that or the line was way too long
It was pretty fire overall
Should have gone much earlier lol
To beat the lines
@pliant garnet
kindaaa
some ppl donβt like the major and make fun of it, but idrc
but itβs mainly just a few stuck up cs majors or engineers, since they have an ai/ml concentration available
why do u care abt others bruh
Iβm curious silly
me frfr
I saw someone say thereβs like 15 ai majors is this hyperbole
Thereβs like 15 current sophomores (the first year of ai) and about 75 current freshmen
So itβs a rly small major compared to the behemoth of cs or ds, and the dept of cs wants to keep it relatively small
Thank you @pliant garnet youβre my idol
smaller/more niche majors are better imo you get to know your peers a lot better
bro that doesn't matter
i went at 6 pm and it was super long line
what
Nono the line to enter was very long
I was happy I was leaving not entering
What was your original major
I shouldβve swapped damn
i shoulda said like CS or sum idk why i said AI
Oh well
ai goated fr fr
Maybe Iβll be here next year when I try to transfer in with an even lower acceptance rate π
tru
dosent purdue accept a lot of transfers?
purdue FYE is basically just weedout classes for first year
so if u have high gpa then u can def transfer in
where r u commited rn?
Yeah itβs more itβs just not where I want to be for 4 years
dww bro u can transfer
OSU is a very solid school
do u like UNC?
it is
ohh yea
So are you going to Purdue now?
prob not
i lowk just appealed cuz i could
spent like 60 bucks for them to review my application so had to make sure i got as much as i could out of it
Ah fair enough
ai hell yeah
π
withdrew my fye acceptance
declined
whateva
I HOPE SOMEONE GETS IN OFF THE WAITLIST!
is this the right thing to pay for deposit
Yuh
Damn Purdue is a 500 dollar deposit??
yeah 300 of that gets applied to the housing contract
purdue scammer
How cooked would I be as a potential external engineering transfer to Purdue
the gym is beautiful
yay
I'M COMMITTING π£οΈ
waiting for the end of the 3 week window though to drop the deposit
you shoulda just done compE concentration for ai
ig but i dont really like hardware stuff
idk why i applied FYE lol
we got actually like 2-3 ppl
ponky hargun solarei and a few more i cant rember off the top of my head
it be like that
the other majors are interesting
for example
the chemE major
can be a glorified data science major
if you want it to
does anyone know when i should recieve finaid offer after i got off waitlist
ohh ok thanks!
Finished purdue 101!
π€
is purdue cs lightworj
goodbye purdue chat
Definitely not
The complete opposite of the word
Nothing here is easy. Everything here is just an arduous challenge after challenge
not at all
itβs rly rly rigorous, and the courses are tough
the ppl on cs are extremely smart, and even then, the average cs gpa upon graduation was 2.8
will i have free time if Iβm in cs ππ the way you guys talk about it makes me fear it is there anything i can do to prepare over the summer as well?
Oh no youll def have free time for cs, if u dont itβll be on ur own accord with like clubs or smth
Its just tough material, its not insanely bad
Really just be disciplined and you will be fine
Hey is there a class of 2029 Purdue server?
I'd also like to know
Is it hard to switch majors from CS to AI?
not at all. the other way around is tough though
okay lit
yes
and join the main purdue server
and proclaim nalgo
when u first join
can you send it
i did
tried to send it
hey guys how do i send something to purdue
my asshole friend decided to drop me for no reason and slur me out and hes going to purdue cs
he also decided to leak my address too and call me the f slur multiple time with his friend
anyways goodbye
wild
I would recommend emailing admissions
Yeah I joined the main server
I wouldnβt do this
yeah is it really worth it
Could you please send it to me too?
i mean he did cheat on all of calc, stats, gov, physics tests and he was selling his tests but never got caught or punished for it, and hes planning to do it in college so idk
Thatβs Terrible if true, just email admissions and theyβll sort things out
Strongly weigh out the odds of him knowing it was you who sent that info @tall gazelle
Odds are this person would just do the same and pull info on you?
And ppl send retaliatory stuff to admissions all the time, they usually donβt do anything unless like the school itself says something to the college
Or itβs something thatβs provably really bad, not just by a single person emailing admissions
Do what you think is the best for you and for your future!!(im sure all of this bad stuff will catch up to that person in the future either way)
anyways, is it possible to triple major
i will have about 16 ap credits and i wanna do cs+math+econ
yes but not recommended for obvious reasons
It could be a cs plus math with an econ minor
yoo is purdue worth 46k oos for engineering?
u think there is any shot they can give aid or nah
Not a single chance
The nly one reason.I got anything was because I applied early action and I got in early action
You really don't want to do that
personally i wouldnt. cs math is doable and you can always pick up an econ minor
For any cyber majors
I was thinking of triple majoring too
however
i was going to do double major in Cyber Security and network engineering, however network engineering only needs 4 additonal classes
and then would it be feasible to do a degree+ plan with econ?
are you coming in with any ap credits?
im personally double majoring (3 extra classes) and 2 minors + honors and itll be fine but i think a big part of why is all of my APs
Yeah AP and DE credits
i think youβd be fine but donβt add it immediately
yeah fs
I would hope so
I Know the doulbe major should be light
it's only 4 classes
and the degree+ is like 8? and i already have to take an econ class for CIT to begin with
12 extra classes can be a lot if youre trying to keep good balance within your schedules and not take crazy ones
just be smart
yeah fair
idk why anyone would do that
fye better
lowk
ai is a W choice
lowkey alot of options
42k a year π
Bro
Good choice π
There are two Econ majors at Purdue one in CLA and one in Danielβs and you can only do the former through degree +
Yeah th'ats good with mr
an econ degree is an econ degree
hola
Look into the cla Econ degree tho
Well not technically BS
hi
I have
what do u think about the AI major?
Why
Absolutely not
hallo
There are AI concentrations in CS and ECE
the CE concentration is a load of garbage
no offense to anyone doing that
Youβre a load of garbage
ik but i thought CS was full
but itβs so insanely surfacial that it doesnβt teach anything of value
π
@pliant garnet what do u think about the AI major?
ive heard it dosent go as indepth compared to the CS major with a AI concentration
Do you mean superficial
What's the difference between "pre econ courses" and "upper division econ" courses
mb surficial or superficial
My guess is that you have to take those before you can declare the major and upper means 300+ in Econ course number
Ah
When would i declare that i want to do degree+?
You tell your advisor
Like asap
i like it quite a bit, though i do have some complaints about it relative to other ai majors, i think itβs a good major
it goes as deep if not deeper than the cs concentration, but theyβre both rly rly similar plan of studies, and u canβt go wrong either way
Aight bet
Dude just do the AI + AI double major
Also are you taking the HTM class
How Feasbile is this if i want to do a double major that is technically a minor?
What do you mean
So i'm double majoring in cyber + networking engineering
Right
not worth it π
since im gonna do grad school, itβs pointless adding anything
Network engeering is only +4 classes compared to cyber
A lot of people do that
yup
The double major
Nah it conflicts with a class π
Yeahhh
Die
How feasbile si that plus Degree+?
Bro it depends on the degree in CLA
Like will i be killing myself
True
I'm doing Econ
or that's the plan
Fair
If I can graduate in 4 years with a masters I donβt see the point of graduating in 4 years with a BSME and a BA in sum BS that wonβt be useful in my career
You did calc 1 right
Have you done micro and macro
What credit do you have bro @eager kelp
Yup
I'll need to go through all of my CC classes and check, but i'll have History Credits, POLS, Calc 1, maybe Calc 2, English
Yeah fs
Probably around 1-2 classes in Econ per sem
The Purdue course catalog bulletin lets you search for every class and course for every major offered at the West Lafayette/Indianapolis campus.
Which is fine if you like what you study
Doesn't seem like that many classes on top of the CIT core
No
Because you can account in the polytech gened
Yeah that's what i'm talking about
Because they overlap
a lot of them do
Right
purdue does that>
classes double count
I can theoretically get an Econ minor without any extra classes
But then I realize I speak fluent Chinese
So I donβt need gen Edβs anymore
i'll have every other credit just by being in poly
Good
All the red
overlaps
so besides 251 and 252
I'll be taking those just by being in poly
I also have to take 251 aswell for poly?
Ask your advisor if you can do COM 217 to fulfill the com req
No just one
@eager kelp do you have an account in my Purdue
Is that class light?
yup
Itβs alright but it fulfills another requirement so it buys you time
I didnβt take it personally but my bf is in it right now
ah okay
sounds good
Cool
Look up my Purdue plan
It makes life slightly easier if you feel like planning out college in your spare time
Aight bet lmao
i'm not busy
How do i work with it
Aight bet?
then just got through the POS then intput those into "future classes"
So just like how i have it rn?
Ah okay
See what overlap there is
Or
If there are classes that you need or whatever
Put the whole course number at the bottom
You will see what req it fulfills
Okay bet
do you know what "EAI" stands for?
