You do have a chance. Give it a try. Your stat is above their admission average. International students are hard to chance though.

You seem qualified for Purdue if not over-qualified. I would not sweat over admissions
I visited purdue. the campus was nice and the size of the school was not as bad as i expected. Out of Notre dame, WUST, and Rose hulman I think purdue had my favorite style/set up for the school of engineering. Every one was super friendly, only downside was i didn’t get to see the dorms.
Good Luck!

@real99 The dorms are quite average there. Their dinning halls are great though. It claims to have one of the best dorm food in the country. No one is really over-qualified there though. Even ACT 35 does not guarantee one of the ~1000 scholarships a couple years ago. Now they have a little less scholarships.

Purdue is a safety for you if you apply before November 1.

Ooh Im looking at Purdue too! 2010 SAT though. Singapore system ,we dont really have GPA, only grades, but I calculated mine got 3.77. Tons of ECs and great recommendations. Ill be applying for EA, and i think you should too, if youre sure you want to attend Purdue. All they want is the money. :slight_smile:
