<p>Just need some basic information about it. For example the average student profile for admissions(GPA, Sat's, ec's etc.). Can you study abroad? Career placement? Anything you want to talk about is fine.</p>
<p>Can anyone answer?</p>
<p>Sorry, didn’t see this earlier. I’m a transfer into Purdue, so my High School stats won’t mean anything, but generally it is a bit competitive. It would be more helpful if you posted your stats. There are opportunities to study abroad and they address that at STAR a little bit. Career placement is about 90% overall in the CoT 1 year after graduation. I can help more if you have more specific questions.</p>
<p>To be honest, all you need to do is a little research on Purdue’s website. </p>
<p>Fall 2010 Freshmen Stats:
[Purdue</a> University - Purdue Class Size](<a href=“http://admissions.purdue.edu/Academic_Profile/Freshman_Profile.html]Purdue”>http://admissions.purdue.edu/Academic_Profile/Freshman_Profile.html)</p>
<p>The stats are for the entire freshmen class so you won’t find an average GPA for CoT students. Considering that Engineering and Business students tend to have a higher GPA and SAT it makes it hard to know what GPA you would need. Applying earlier like in August helps a lot if you are satisfied with your SAT score from the spring and/or summer. </p>
<p>Study Abroad Program:
[Office</a> of Programs for Study Abroad - Purdue University](<a href=“http://www.studyabroad.purdue.edu%5DOffice”>http://www.studyabroad.purdue.edu)</p>
<p>Go through the website and see what programs interest you. There are requirements you have to fulfill such as GPA, class standing, etc. If your GPA is a bit lower than the requirement, you can send an e-mail to the program’s director for reconsideration. </p>
<p>Career Placement/Salary:</p>
<p><a href=“Purdue CCO”>https://www.cco.purdue.edu/Parents/PostGradData.shtml</a></p>
<p>Considering that the economy is bad and graduates have been having a hard time finding a job, things might change with job placement %.</p>
