hello! i'm currently applying for purdue as first year engineering and pre med (but will likely only get into my second choice, exploratory studies because of my SAT math score), but i was wondering which major is a better fit for me. does anyone have any information about them or know which will be better for a pre med student? also, is engineering and pre med together at purdue a death wish?  😭 i appreciate any advice/comments!!

Hi, I’ll be joining Purdue as a visiting scholar this November and I’m considering The Lumen Apartments in West Lafayette.

Since it’s a very new property, I haven’t been able to find many resident reviews online. Is anyone currently living there or familiar with the property?

I’d especially appreciate any first-hand feedback about:

• soundproofing/noise
• management and maintenance
• utility costs
• internet quality
• construction status
• commuting to Purdue

Thanks!

Hey all! I will be walking this December and I was looking for 1 extra ticket for Dec 20 7 PM - anyone has an extra ticket they don't intend to use? TIA!!

Does anyone know of fun events from clubs or parties to go to on Halloween? My friends and I are looking for something to do. It could be anything really.

Green room rockers!

Spread the word. Beat Washington.

hey guys!

I'm a high school senior who's struggling with the Purdue supplementals. I'm applying for EE (Engineering) and would love it if anyone in the program could help me with my supps or give me some feedback!

If you can, I'd be so happy! You can just comment here or shoot me a DM request.

ty guys :)

Why is it so hard to complete the 50-hour driving log as an international student 😭 I know how to drive but don’t have access to a car, and my friends keep postponing every week 💀 I wanna get my license before going home. what did y’all do in this situation?

Y’all gotta stop doing this 😭

hi guys, im applying to Purdue this fall, and debating whether to spend the whole of this essay writing about aerospace, or mentioning a campus as well. WL is the only campus that offers aerospace, and the word limit is 250 so not a lot of space. I dont want it to seem like im ignoring the 'why campus' part of the question though, although there is another separate essay for talking specifically about purdue and how will it support my interests.

Where can I get treated for red-eye? I already went to PUSH and IU Urgent Care. I tried antibacterial eye drops, but the redness still persists, and they caused more itching.

I found that Evans & Taylor Eye Care has necessary equipment and they are professional? I want to go to a place that has the necessary equipment. (I have Purdue student insurance.)

I have a friend coming to visit me this Saturday, and I know the corec usually has free parking but I’m wondering if it’ll be paid cause it’s a football weekend? Also if anyone could tell me some other lots that are free all of the time

Hi all. I'm a journalist with the Hechinger Report working on a profile of Purdue and its efforts to foster "AI competency" among its graduates. I'm visiting campus at the end of this month (10/28-10/30) to observe classes, talk with faculty, administrators and students.

I'm especially interested in what students think about this new requirement. Do you think it will benefit Purdue grads? Do you think this is a good use of university resources? Do you oppose the university's embrace of AI in this way? Are you concerned the university will force you to use AI tools despite your ethical objections to them? What's your own relationship with AI? Has it helped or harmed you academically?

I'm open to any and all opinions. And I may follow-up in a chat with you. Also, if you'd rather reach me directly, you can DM me or send an email to: leevgaines@gmail.com. (My name is Lee V. Gaines, btw).

I see on the supplemental courses for AAE that STAT 511 and ECE 302 are the two courses that double count on Stats and Specialization or Selective so I am considering taking one of the two. Can someone who took both classes share some thoughts on which one is easier or which one is more fun?

Anyone selling a bike in purdue for cheap

Anyone know what happened to purduerejects.com and iurejects.com both sites are down??

I am CompE 2028

There was prev a class called electrical engineering senior design or smt which was 4 credits for 1 sem. I likely won't be on campus for Fall '27 and if the only remaining credits I need to complete are the senior design, is there any way around this so I could still gradaute on time? Counselor is not really helpful....

As my son is a freshmen , this will be our first family weekend coming up on 10/16. How crazy /crowded will the campus be? Is parking anywhere on campus an option for the game Friday night ?

I know using 3rd party exchanges always carries risk; just making people aware of this situation I did not realize could happen.

I had someone try to buy my student section ticket for a non student. I sent it to the email as instructed, but the buyer was not able to claim it because they already had a student ticket in their account. Purdue makes this policy clear, and this was an oversight on the buyer’s end.

They filed a dispute with StudentSeats, who then refunded their money and canceled my sale listing because I couldn’t provide proof the transfer was accepted. By then, the game had already passed so I lost the opportunity to sell that ticket.

I argued with a customer service bot, which just said, “If the process outlined in the Student Seats app is followed, these issues should generally be avoided.” They did not answer when I asked what process I should follow to avoid this.

Not a huge deal for a football ticket, but would suck to get screwed out of selling a more expensive basketball ticket. This happened to me with Aries Tickets last year, which was why I’d switched to studentseats.

i am so happy

Anyone also trying to get back to Purdue at 9:30/10pm ish and wants to split an uber dm me.

I’m applying to the Honors College, and I’m not necessarily asking if I’ll be accepted, but I’m curious to know any data regarding the students who are admitted. Purdue publishes information about gpa and SAT scores for other colleges, but I can’t find anything about the Honors College. Is there any information like this available? Or, if you have been admitted, was your gpa or SAT within a certain range?
