Purdue University (2025-2026)

[hoary quartz]

cause through these

you can supplement your lack of "prestige"

you will be suprised how hard working folks are regardless of what school they go to

engineers generally are fine

sometimes you might find folks who had big dreams

[fair sandal]

Ye but with alot of ppl joining these orgs it isn’t enough anymore right

[hoary quartz]

but found out their passion is in a smaller place

[hoary quartz]

these orgs have alot of people

its not like

hs

the more people who join

and get themselves involved

the more access to high quality professional development

and netowrking opportunities

nothing at all is a guarantee

we can agree on that

but anything

can give you an edge

[fair sandal]

Ye wherever u go u still need to put in the work

[hoary quartz]

thats why alot of people just tell you to apply

anywhere

cause in that case

you can just do as much as you can

and then the only thing thats keeping you down

is luck

i go to purude

[forest scaffold]

good to know

[hoary quartz]

im a decent engineer

but i applied to 370 positions

before getting two offres

i know others with around 600

and some as low as 100

[forest scaffold]

crazy

[hoary quartz]

theres a point where your own due dilligence meets its limits

and you kinda give up the reigns to lady luck

[forest scaffold]

well congrats

[hoary quartz]

thanks

[forest scaffold]

where do u go hell?

[hoary quartz]

ill be on co-op with hasbro nerf for the summer and fall

[fair sandal]

How easy is it to apply

Cuz I feel nowadays everyone spam apps so

[forest scaffold]

oh that sounds fun

[hoary quartz]

as easy as literally finding a link on the company website

and just putting in your info

[hoary quartz]

yea thats essentially the easiest way

[fair sandal]

Explains why everyone applies everywhere

[hoary quartz]

for most

[hoary quartz]

yep

for you first internship

dontlimit yourself

to industry or field

literally apply to anything

any experience is expereince for a first timer

itll be good to get something that you want

but

but for the freshman and sophmore years

(thats when folks get their first)

anything works

like my co-op is not in stuff id personally wanna do forever

but its good experience

[fair sandal]

Does most ppl get an internship in their sophomore or junior yr

[fair sandal]

Oh

[hoary quartz]

most people get their first in junior year

itll seem like everyone is getting one freshman and sopmore year

but its not true

[fair sandal]

Survivorship bias ig

[hoary quartz]

yep

[fair sandal]

Imma try getting one in my freshman yr

[hoary quartz]

thats a good goal

dont expect it

its super hard

cause most recruiting starts in the fall

and as a freshman in the fall

you kinda have no experience

but what i do recommend doing

is going to IR

going to all career fairs

just getting the expeirnce

of talking to a recruiter

going to networking events hosted by clubs

[forest scaffold]

my friend said he went to career fair and he said they dont take feshman

[hoary quartz]

going and just interacting with this enviroment

[hoary quartz]

theres always companies that take freshman

in IR

the big companies most likely wont

[forest scaffold]

ir?

[hoary quartz]

industrial roundtable

[forest scaffold]

oh i see

[hoary quartz]

https://www.purdueesc.org/industrial-roundtable

so what is recommend as a freshman

is that you go to the smalelr companies

that you might have never heard of

and try to get an internship there

[tame slate]

Ooh in what way

[hoary quartz]

theres also co-op fair

i kinda recommned a co-op

its essentially an internship you keep coming back to

[forest scaffold]

thx

[hoary quartz]

first rotation is like a normal internship

they teach you the ropes

and all

the next rotation you come back alr knowing how to do everything

and then the next youre an expert in your craft

most co-ops are 3 rotations

but some are 5

rotations are semester long

[hoary quartz]

IR is in WL

but there is a bus from indy to WL

and its free

[forest scaffold]

i got into wl

[hoary quartz]

ok

then

no big deal

[forest scaffold]

i saw there was Indianapolis Prep Night

so just making sure

[hoary quartz]

thats for indy students

[forest scaffold]

i see

is indy good?

do the collabrate with wl

o we never really see the indy students

[hoary quartz]

indy is not good

those poor souls are getting cooked

[forest scaffold]

lol why

[hoary quartz]

remember to pray for indy students

[forest scaffold]

yes sir

[hoary quartz]

one day their campus will be more than 3 buildings

but that day

[forest scaffold]

...

[tame slate]

What exactly went wrong with purdue indy? 😭

[hoary quartz]

is not today

[forest scaffold]

they have three buildings

im crine

[hoary quartz]

oh purdue essentially uses it to trap students

they think that indy is the main campus

[forest scaffold]

sounds like prison

[hoary quartz]

or equal

to it

then they spend like 40k a year

[tame slate]

Ohh its the temu version of purdue

[hoary quartz]

at a place with 3 buildings

yea

they claim its just purdue WL but in indy

but its not

cause it had 3 buildings

and damn near none of the opportunities

[forest scaffold]

Congratulations! The Purdue University Admissions Committee is pleased to offer you admission to Computer Science in the College of Science at Purdue University in West Lafayette for Fall 2026.

🙏

thank god i got in to wl

[hoary quartz]

yea so thats that

[hoary quartz]

like collab with other departments

alot of fun stuff folks dont know cs majors do

health research

engineering stuff

plant research

less of the tech bro stuff

[tame slate]

That sounds so cool

[hoary quartz]

alot of people do the tech bro stuff

but thats boring

[tame slate]

The tech bro stuff pmo

cs students on linkedin talk abt projects they worked on and its usually some generic tech bro stuff 😭

[fair sandal]

By their definitions yes

Indy is part of the main campus

But kinda almost no one wanna go there

[fair sandal]

Eh they do pay for co ops right even for freshman going to small companies

[hoary quartz]

pay for co-ops?

whos paying for co-ops

also freshman and sophmores are the ones that companies who do co-ops usually aim for

cause they know nothing about engineering

in the field

so youll be trained to work for them

[fair sandal]

Wb junior yr? Internships?

[hoary quartz]

yea

i mean the expectation when doing a co-op

is that due to the number of rotations

youll be doing it all of your college career

like 5 rorations are optimal for freshman

thats about 15-18 months of work experience

by the time you end

youre essentially a perfect worker for the companies

and you end might get full time witht ehm

[fair sandal]

Aight thx

[hoary quartz]

co-op range from 2-5 rotations

but 3 rotations and 5 rotations are most common

[wispy dove]

damn fr

does everytone get reply at same time

[trail furnace]

Waterloo or Purdue

Any Purdue ppl here can convince me

for EE

[hoary quartz]

are you canadian?

if you are

go to waterloo

the canadian government is screwing over enginereers who go out of nation

[trail furnace]

Wait wat

[hoary quartz]

yea

i learned this from a canadian engineer

so it seems that the canadian governement is promoting more protectionist perspective

theyre giving tax credits to companies that hire engineers that are currently in canadian schools

but

take it with a grain of salt

learn more first

[near horizon]

purdue is tuff

[hoary quartz]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Purdue/comments/1ott01p/purdues_biggest_lie_purdue_indianapolis/

[fair sandal]

Daily dose of flaming Indianapolis

[junior sun]

i remember i was so surprised when i learned indy was included in "Purdue University -- Main Campus" 😭

and idk i get the vibe that purdue keeps talm bout it like it's purdue but better (because it's in the city)

when i complained abt how misleading indy is to my counselor, she was like "in the future it will probably get better, purdue won't open this campus unless they're confident they can make it work. because reputation matters a lot"

idk tho 😭

[hoary quartz]

this is the third time theyre tried this

theres a reason why purdue fortwayne exists

[charred cipher]

purdue and northeastern sitting in a tree

kissing

[trim herald]

Are you going to gt???

[wispy dove]

hi, are they releasing waitlist decision in waves?

[worthy trout]

you can get it during the semester too

that's what i'm planning to do this fall

[pulsar palm]

im not even sure if its worth it anymore

like what use will it have

[true oriole]

guys how easy to switch from purdue polytechnic to a major like computer engineering?

[hoary quartz]

kinda hard

[trim herald]

What major are you

[merry mason]

Yes

How hard is it to take courses outside of your college

Ie I’m in Compsci which is college of science but is it possible for me to take any engineering courses if I’m interested in them

Like some ee or cse

[fair sandal]

Same lol I might wanna do some other courses in other popular majors

[merry fog]

guys how to reset password for the email

whenever i try to change the password it changes the password of the career account

[true oriole]

robotics engineering

[fervent smelt]

Is the Boiler Gold Rush worth it?

[merry mason]

I heard it is

[fervent smelt]

also is there a discord server for purdue

[trim herald]

Yes

10000% it’s worth it

[trim herald]

Yes

[fervent smelt]

May I have an invite link pls

[trim herald]

Check dms

[fair sandal]

Is it worth if you also do summer start

[trim herald]

I didn't do summer start so i wouldn't know but from people that did they say it was worth it

[fair sandal]

O ok but I have heard some ppl say that bgr is abit less worth it after they attended summer start, so I was wondering what yall do during bgr

[forest scaffold]

bgr cant hurt u

whats the worse that can happen

[fair sandal]

Yea ig

[trim herald]

It's only freshman on campus, you get to meet a bunch of other freshman and hang out they have a bunch of events for you to get to know the school it's pretty cool

[charred cipher]

WE ARE SO BACK

GO BOILERMAKERS LETS GO AI LETS GO AI!

[wispy dove]

i still havnt recieved a reply from purdue waitlist, i also sent an loci but no reply to that either, am i cooked?

[hoary quartz]

just go to the other schools you got in from

expecting a waitlist to move

is like expect a personal meeting from santa claus on a calm winters night

[tawdry nebula]

??

prob yea... just pay the deposite atp

i got my decision like few h ago

[blissful sky]

Can I pau the 500$ deposit and then decide not to go?

[tawdry nebula]

ig

but u wont get refunded

[blissful sky]

Ok

thanks

[merry fog]

Wait what

@trail escarp is this real

[trail escarp]

Bro idk what’s going on

I got booted from tdm301 with all my friends too

[hoary quartz]

theyre going to cook some people

[trail escarp]

ehhh im dropping tdm anyways tbh im sooo fed up

[hoary quartz]

why

what they doing

[merry fog]

Damn

[trail escarp]

ehh its just very tedious in a lot of different ways with too much logistics and technicalities

id rather not anymore, ive drained its use for all its worth

[pulsar palm]

welp

i committed

[unique owl]

Guys I’m so hype

[pulsar palm]

ay ur going too

[unique owl]

Yes!!!

[pulsar palm]

ill have a friend ig

[unique owl]

Yeyeye

Very hype

But I need to pass AP exams first

[pulsar palm]

same bro

😭

[unique owl]

I’m acc so cooked

Gov, Lit, Macro, Calc BC, mechanics and E&m

sigh

Save me

[pulsar palm]

Calc BC, Lit, Macro, Micro, C Mech, C E&M, and Chem

we are crine together

[solar osprey]

yikes

[fair sandal]

Trust u will get a lot of credit transfers

[tired zinc]

congrats!

[pulsar palm]

thx

im hyped

I found one of my friends is going here too

same major aswell

[tame slate]

Yoo committed boilermakers join the purdue server

[fervent smelt]

is it normal to get 0 aid (im OOS)

[fair sandal]

I’m also oos and they didn’t give me aid outside of the Pell grant

I’m guessing it’s cuz of the low tuition

[fervent smelt]

yea ig

hopefully this 55k/year will be worth

[fair sandal]

What’s ur major

[fervent smelt]

fye but i plan on doing compE

[fair sandal]

I mean if ur other options ain’t a lot cheaper it shld be good worth

Housing and food might be abit cheaper than what’s calc in ur coa cuz u might be assigned to a double/triple or quad dorm

[fair sandal]

Especially if ur in a learning community

[fervent smelt]

yea i’m gonna apply to a learning community

[fair sandal]

Yea most do

[hoary quartz]

some learning community housing can be more expensive

than other options

available on campus

[fair sandal]

Yea… but I mean for epics and vip shld be fine right

[fair sandal]

If I am not wrong their rooms are below 6k per acad yr

[fair sandal]

Cuz they are only double and triple room options

[near horizon]

fyeeahh

🔥

[unique owl]

I checked the one for WiE and it’s p expensive but lowk I really do want a double

And I’ve heard the Meredith South is a NICE dorm

[trail furnace]

How do I accept my offer

I'm on the purdue portal

Also why does my password change every week, I always gotta reset it

Help...

[fair sandal]

In the mypurdue portal student checklist or it’s smt be somewhere at the bottom of the applicant portal that leads u there

[junior sun]

if u scroll to the bottom of ur portal there should be a black button that says "accept your offer"

then u sign in w ur career account to go to mypurdue (i think?)

then click on the "new student task list" link

[trail furnace]

Ok tyty

Also, do I have to do the residence thing by May 5th?

Am i just cooked if i don't

[fair sandal]

Yea

[fair sandal]

Idk but pretty sure u can finish it within half a day

[trail furnace]

Half a day???

[fair sandal]

Only time consuming part is if u apply for learning communities

[trail furnace]

Is it a full blown application 😭

[fair sandal]

Sorta

[trail furnace]

Do i gotta do like roommate letters and stuff

Aw hell nah

[fair sandal]

No?

Just need fill out ur information and stuff

Then uh write some sort of intro

Then rank the learning communities you prefer and do a 4 qn write up

Choose the types of rooms you like

Then sign off using ur puid that they will conveniently list on the same page

[pulsar palm]

am i in the wrong one

i might be in the wrong one

[hoary quartz]

its the one

from my tag

the btfu

[unique owl]

@junior sun did you commit to GT :(((

[junior sun]

yeah... i'm so sorry :<

[tired zinc]

I mean honestly I think you made the right choice

[tired zinc]

I think you’ll love it more at GT once your there

[glacial elm]

[junior sun]

yeah... kinda bittersweet i'm letting purdue go but

[glacial elm]

https://tenor.com/view/brent-key-go-jackets-coach-key-gif-16466945650090919360

[junior sun]

imma try to be an engineer wherever i am

[glacial elm]

georgia tech has grade inflation and purdue has grade deflation

[junior sun]

so hoepfully things will be okay (hopefully) (pls) (im so cooked) 😭

[glacial elm]

ull be happy at tech

trust

[junior sun]

they also have a rlly rlly big aquarium in georgia! 🤩

20 min walk from campus

[junior sun]

why r u in on the turkstra jokes too 😭

[glacial elm]

cuz i dodged a bullet

😭

dude looks like a chill guy icel

[junior sun]

ur cs? 😭

🫡

[glacial elm]

i was going to if i went to purdue

but im accounting now w an intent to double major in finance

[tired zinc]

😭

[glacial elm]

i dont think i wuda had fun doing cs whatsoever

[junior sun]

it's wild how we're supposed to be like

learning how to do j*bs now

so scary

[glacial elm]

LMAO

[unique owl]

Ackkk, it’s okay I def believe it was the better choice imo

I would’ve went if they didn’t reject me and like 95% of my school district lol

[unique owl]

Guys IM GENUINELY fried for my AP exams

[hoary quartz]

Ohh your major won't teach you how to do jobs

Like the college degrees don't teach you how to do job, they teach you the critical thinking skills

It will be your club activities. And it will also be your internship experience.That'll get you job experience

[trail escarp]

msouth top 1 dorm here

[trail escarp]

congrats!

[trail escarp]

they’re sooooo useful

[unique owl]

I better get into WiE then

[unique owl]

Genuinely AP physics c may fry me alive but I think I can get credit for everything else I’ve gotten 5s and 4s on everything else

[crisp pulsar]

no way

Im surprised

GO BUMBLEBEES

[safe spindle]

NOOOOOOOOOO

[unique owl]

It’s okay you’re a Purdue simp at heart

Georgia techs colors are close enough

[tired zinc]

Wanted to ask a question out of curiosity. If your parents had decided to completely let the decision up to you, would you still have picked GT?

I remember you saying that they influenced your decision

[fringe remnant]

Honestly you will be in good hands with gt

[fair sandal]

Can’t really go wrong with choosing between g tech and Purdue even tho one may have an edge over the other

[fair sandal]

For engineering at least

[fringe remnant]

We are the land of gtech rejects lol

[tired zinc]

agreed

[fair sandal]

I didn’t even try applying there 💀

[tired zinc]

I got waitlisted 😭

[unique owl]

Real asf

[fair sandal]

This me for uiuc

And uf for some reason

[tawdry nebula]

wait what 😭

[charred cipher]

was gtech cheaper?

[tawdry nebula]

I think they're around the same

but tbh ig its because gt's better

[charred cipher]

bagging purdue and gtech engineering as an intl is insanity tbh

even for us residents thats so hard

[tawdry nebula]

yea. theres no safety for intl eng student ngl

🥀

i got into purdue but i had to reject the offer because they didnt give me any sholarship 🥀

[junior sun]

hii srry i was sniped by a fever today 😭 lemme respond to yalls msges

[junior sun]

i kinda preferred purdue bc i alr knew so much abt the school. ig my parents also helped me step out of the bubble tho, in a way (?)

like tbh theyre both amazing schools, n im happy regardless of which one i end up committing to

[junior sun]

on their websites, both CoAs were approx the same, but costs at gt add up fast n im prt sure it's ~10k more expensive

im also kinda obliged to pick the more expensive housing option too bc of honors so

but in hindsight im happy i chose gt! and im super grateful my parents r willing to pay for my tuition asw

and also now i realize i would NOT have survived the midwest cold lmao 😭😭😭 im rlly sensitive to weather

[fair sandal]

As long as u can afford both it’s fine don’t need to feel bad abt it

[unique owl]

Seriously congrats on GT tho that’s awesome

[near horizon]

GT is around 5k more expensive per year

but im domestic so idk

gt comes out to 48k ISH a year with everything for me

purduw ould have been 43

[raven scarab]

yo

is there an official purdue discord server

[trail escarp]

hellsalem's tag

[tame slate]

yeah you can find the link on the purdue subreddit

[safe spindle]

are you so ready for finals..

[trail escarp]

i only started studying today and my finals tomorrow

it has been a horrendous week for so so many reasons 😭

hbu r u ready lol

[safe spindle]

similar. i have two finals tomorrow. started yesterday

[trail escarp]

🫂

good luckkk

[safe spindle]

thankssss

i have an 8am.. 💀

i might go to the psub pancake thing tonight though

[trail escarp]

ohhh

[trail escarp]

oh whats that

i missed hilly midnight pancakes so i need to compensate lol

[safe spindle]

i think psub is just making pancakes?

it starts at 8 and in the pmu i think

[trail escarp]

thats so far 🫠

[safe spindle]

oh yeah ur far arent you

[trail escarp]

yea hilly this year

[safe spindle]

might be good to stretch legs and get out for a bit

i almost lived in hilly

[trail escarp]

thats also fair i might do that

i usually study in stewart anyways

[hoary quartz]

im completely doomed

[trail escarp]

ohh where r u this year again

[safe spindle]

im in honors

yay for housing security and getting my housing paid for

[trail escarp]

oh niceee

r u staying on campus next year

[safe spindle]

yes

im an RA 💀

[trail escarp]

oh yeahh

do u know where ur gonna be

[safe spindle]

honors

they dontmove you usually

like 99% of the time you dont get moved

[trail escarp]

ah that’s cool

[safe spindle]

yeah itll be nice, i like it here, i like my coworkes

ill have an even better room than i do this year

[trail escarp]

oh how so does honors have different kids of rooms

[safe spindle]

mhm

returning RAs get a slightly bigger room than new RAs in honors

varies in building though. like in parkers i know the RA rooms arent identical but theyre very similar and theres no culture of the returning RA getting the 'better' one

[trail escarp]

oh lol 😭

[forest scaffold]

me too

[unique owl]

Being an RA sounds so cool icl

[safe spindle]

if you ever have any questions about it or applying to be an RA feel free to dm and ask :)

[unique owl]

Tysm!

[unique owl]

Yall is Earhart hall a decent dorm?

My standards are p low but I know it’s a co-ed dorm so I’m lowk scared of the bathrooms

[tired zinc]

From what I heard, it is a pretty decent dorm

Not like the worst

But not the best either

[unique owl]

As long as its not the worst I’m okay w/ it

[merry fog]

do i have to purchase this gradguard insurance?

@trail escarp sorry for ping but the deadline is nearby and i gotta submit this housing app asap

[fair sandal]

Encouraged, I don’t think it’s compulsory

[safe spindle]

bathrooms are still single sex. my understanding is each floor in a building like earhart has a male wing and female wing so if youre male all your neighbors will also be male and all the bathrooms are mens restrooms and vice versa

[safe spindle]

i have never done it

[finite breach]

Is the fort Wayne campus looked down upon?

I'm considering it over WL since they have much better scolarships

[safe spindle]

yes

[finite breach]

Ah damn

Shame since they're the only purdue campus that offers full rides

[hoary quartz]

aint even the same purdue

[finite breach]

Kk

[trail escarp]

ive never gotten it

[trail escarp]

oh ur fine dw bout it feel free to ping

[trim herald]

Awsome dorm

I’m in there rn

Rooms are a good size, it’s separated by wing so it’s a male and female side

[tired zinc]

https://youtu.be/_YRYE7agoqg?si=i2fTuuioXD4WYkwW

Apparently Purdue also made something like this

But UIUC wanted to build one better than Purdue

And so they made this

[unique owl]

Oh okay good stuff

[unique owl]

Oh amazing thanks for all that info

[wispy dove]

I havnt reciieved a reply yet? Am I rejected? Will they send a rejection email?

[pulsar palm]

as long as i get a dorm with air conditioning

i pray

[fair sandal]

I guess you just have to wait till june

Also uiuc somehow let me off their waitlist for chem e

Time to think abt ts

[trail escarp]

I SAW THEM

LET ME SEND THE PHOTO I TOOK YESTERDAY

the boilermaker kinda special

[junior sun]

my hs (robotics club) made one like this 3 years ago lmao 😭

we're getting copied by purdue AND uiuc now? smhsmh

[junior sun]

"kinda" in comic sans is sending me 😭

[junior sun]

wait im watching ts and at 1:37 they literally confirm theyre doing this to one-up "one of their biggest rivals" purdue 😭

idk this "rivalry" looks so one-sided to me it's kinda funny

[tired zinc]

aint no way😂

thats tough

[tired zinc]

oh yeah lmao

[trail escarp]

its so one sided we literally dont care about uiuc 😭

iu is the only ones we care about lmao

i dont even consider them a school theyre just like an amalgation of purdue rejected students masquerading as a "prestigious" school

[fair sandal]

I have seen alot of uiuc kids say Purdue is a bunch of uiuc rejects alot of times 😭 wanna get in on the beef

[trail escarp]

uiucrejects.com goes to Purdue, purduerejects.com goes to IU, iurejects.com goes to McDonald’s hiring page

It’s very silly

[fair sandal]

I have seen alot of Purdue fye ppl getting off waitlist at uiuc lately

[proper maple]

chat I forgot to fill out the housing form

am I cooked?

[proper maple]

I mean thats kinda like me

[safe spindle]

probably yeah im ngl. see if theres any way to fill it out late or get on a WL or smth

[patent cloak]

maybe for CS

engineering not so much i think purdue is higher ranked for a lot of engineering majors

[solar osprey]

ye n uiuc so much more expensive too

esp for oos

[fair sandal]

Imma see how much aid they will give

But I am more than prepared to be disappointed

[solar osprey]

i got ma fed aid

and ts still more expensive than purdue

😭😭

[fair sandal]

If they just give me my Pell grant

Their tuition+ fees(excluding housing and food) would be like more expensive that my Purdue coa

[solar osprey]

yeah i got max pell grant

[fair sandal]

How much aid did they give u in total

[solar osprey]

7.4k

maybe like 8k

[fair sandal]

And nothing else huh

[solar osprey]

yeah

nothing else

[fair sandal]

Ggs

[solar osprey]

they prob wouldve given more if i applied early action

but yeah

thats why i wanna get off the waitlist

but if not ig im gonna have to find a way

w prudue

*purdue

[fair sandal]

Might just have to go Purdue if that’s the case

[solar osprey]

yeah

UIUC gave me like 15k

but ts still costs 53k a yr (not including work study and loans)

but purdue even with 7-8k aid costs 47k a yr (not including work study and loans)

[safe spindle]

47k a year after aid? that doesnt sound right. are you intl?

[jagged orbit]

mine was also 47k a year just oos </3

Did I get the short end of the stick

[merry mason]

47k for Purdue is pretty good congrats on neu how much did that cost

[hoary quartz]

purdue shouldnt be 47k

if thats the cost of attendance thing they show you

it doesnt take housing and the stuff into consideration

well

[jagged orbit]

39k ! Was surprised it was cheaper than purdue lmao

[merry mason]

Unless scholarship

[merry mason]

Oh daaam congrats

I only got 7k aid

[solar osprey]

nope

domestic

[solar osprey]

it does

original coa was 55k

[safe spindle]

that just really doesn’t sound right? you dint even have your housing assignment or official meal plan selected yet. i know some degrees have extras fees but not that much i thought

[safe spindle]

HUH

[jagged orbit]

yeah my original coa was also 55k lmao

I only got 7-8k from pell

[solar osprey]

yup

[hoary quartz]

I think the university increased prices for them

Not for class of 2030 but I think they might have shown some admission stats on admitted students day or something

Like I saw this but take it with a grain of salt or whatever

Bottom line is they didn’t include waitlists

Idk if they bundled it with indianapolis

24% is a lot lower than what they showed originally which was around 30ish

For a while now the in state makes up less than 30% of the engineering population. Based on their stats, there’s like 3+k total ppl in CoE, 500+ of which are from Indianapolis.

Hey guys, I got admitted to Pre-economics at Purdue instead of pre-accounting (my first choice). Can I change it on the second semesters or I have to stick with it till graduation?

[hoary quartz]

You can change your major

It's just that you won't be able to change it. The first semester you get there

The change will happen most likely at the end of the second semester
