does anybody have an ETA on when they might release?
Did anyone get accepted?
Decision are outā¦ my son was EA deferred but now Waitlisted for CS. (OOS).
Same got waitlisted for political science.
Waitlisted, OOS, finance. I did see someone on reddit say they got accepted today, fwiw.
The waitlist form is glitching.

To all those waitlisted today:
Purdue does seem like theyāre trying to get a better handle on accepting/rejecting/waitlisting the right amount of people to target the incoming class size better. Like this year they accepted lots more people in RD than previous years. I will be interested to see what happens with the waitlist. Good luck, and I hope thereās some other nice choices lined up for everyone. Would be nice if thereās waitlist movement, but I think itās too hard to make any predictions this year.
ETA: They only accepted 19 students off the waitlist last year.

I agree. Especially for those of us who applied for EA, it took them a full five months to say no. Not cool.

Has anyone emailed them about the waitlist form issue yet?
To protect their yield rate, Purdueās āyou canāt fire me, because I quit!ā attitude is hilarious. I might have considered them at the beginning of March with a full-ride only.
They know Iāll not go there anymore in a million years, so they waitlist from the West Lafayette campus but offer spot on other campuses with a transfer option. You were just a safety, and this is beyond funny.
Waitlisted, CS, International.
Itās working now
Well, they donāt give full rides, so I think you would have been disappointed with an acceptance too. I hope you have an acceptance that youāre excited about!

Thanks, I already committed, and Iām absolutely not disappointed. I just found a safety school waitlisting me very funny.
Glad to hear it. Unfortunately, Purdue isnāt a safety for CS or engineering for anyone, even in-state applicants. I donāt know that my son would have been admitted to engineering if we were OOS.
