Can I get into Purdue University?
I'm applying to Purdue hoping to get into the engineering program GPA overall 3.2 ...my early HS years are the reason for the low GPA...since late sophomore there has been obvious improvement .the GPA is unweighted Senior year courses: -AP calculus (only AP course available in the school) -Physics -Foreign language (Arabic), and Political Science in concurrent enrollment (.5 credit for each) -English literature -English composition, and career guidance (concurrent enrollment) -Physical Education -Social Science these courses are pretty much the only ones available other than a few more (its a small school), which is why i couldn't take more courses to do with engineering. my SAT is 1730 (math 600, CR 550, writing 580) i'm planning to do the SAT subject tests in math 1 in January (will they consider it since its not required?) I have 3 letters of recommendation and was involved in a number of extra curricular activities.. school does not rank students Can I get in?

- GO UP TO THE IN-CHARGE DUDE AND ASK HIM LOL
- possibly, but engineering is extremely competitive. You could do what a lot of my friends did and apply for another major, get accepted, work on making great grades in the entry courses, and then do a change of degree objective (CODO), so you can apply to the engineering department after proving yourself for a year or two.
- plz think about this-- I can get you and you can get you into ANY university in the US [excluding a military academy] in your junior year! Why sweat the first 2 yrs? Go to a Community College and transfer in. I have not heard of one jr ever being rejected!]
