Purdue University Early Action for Fall 2025 Admission

Do you have change major under change request?

When we were awaiting my son’s application decision 2 years ago we were having fun here with the portal astrology and of course being totally ridiculous about it. I just wanna say, y’all are leveling UP this year :laughing:

Have to pass the time somehow! :grin: Anxious students and parents (not necessarily in that order).

I don’t have Change Major, but I do have the status bar (per my prev. post).

What “bar” exactly are we talking about here? It is dry January
:grin:!

We have the bar (the mini one) still :thinking:

You and another OOS has this and both seem FYE. Maybe they are going by major

Any CS majors have bar?

Do tell
did any of your year’s portal astrology pan out?

Yes, it’s the thin bar vs thick bar that is cracking me up so much!

Don’t forget that an admission might be to a second choice major, or to a different campus. Purdue does that a lot. And that a deferral is NOT a rejection. In fact, there are students every year that get deferred and then admitted in RD to their first choice major.

Fingers crossed that everyone gets good news soon.

Yes, if I recall it was only some of the available options that seemed to be distinctive. I can’t remember which ones – it was something like the change major option being there for admittances. The rest of the stuff didn’t seem to correlate, but my memory is admittedly hazy.

I may be screwed cus I have never seen the thin bar on my portal :skull:

i think this bar stuff is pretty ridiculous and the only real indicators are the change major button (indicates acceptance, see FAQ on portal) and LOCI form (indicates deferral). until these start appearing, do not stress about portal UI stuff at all.

I am also a competitive FYE and have the bar back

Let me help with the speculation. The extra thin bar indicates you submitted an extra recommendation, so your application is more complete than others.

Is anyone’s portal still showing this old picture:

I am guessing if you see this new picture then your result has been uploaded, although the “decided” and “view your decision” will not show up until the 15th. This is a screenshot of my D24’s account right now (she was accepted last year).

Did u have change major option before the results were released?

And what was in reply forms?

I’m pretty excited and more than a little nervous for this Wednesday. Just to confirm, has anyone seen the change major button this year?

No one has reported change major option showing up as yet.

Yes, the change major option appeared in her portal around jan 6 and was gone on jan 10. The results were released on Jan 12. No forms appeared in her “reply form” tab.
