I just activated mypurdue portal to see if I qualified for any FA. Was this only supposed to be done for admissions acceptance?

Not really disappointed about no honors since heard it is marginal (most students are for good dorms), but disappointed with no merit. This makes Purdue less attractive to us if she gets into other good schools (Many EA results will be announced by end of this month plus RD results in March).

827

Same. OOS FYE. No merit.

Doesnā€™t hurt. Do it.

836

They probably think your child wonā€™t attend, with this outstanding stats. They want to protect their yield. Good news is coming!

837

I hope you can feel proud. You did the work. This is disappointing, too, I know.

My son got admitted today. Heā€™s keen on MechE. Could you share any insights on what is the probability of acceptance at the end of Year 1 into a high demand major like MechE?

I am the child, and I would definitely attend. But do you really think it was some sort of yield-protection? I saw a lot of people get deferred rather than rejected

My son got the opposite result.
