If I were you I’d probably start worrying now and like stlmom said call the University Residences. For the past few years there have been a lot of people who apply to housing then Purdue has rooms. So basically when demand is more than supply trouble happens. I remember reading either last year or the year before how about 100 students had to live in makeshift rooms for a few months because Purdue didn’t have enough rooms. And as for dorms being cheaper, I wouldn’t necessarily agree with that. I lived in a 4 br apartment about 2 minute walk from Rawls and paid about $400 total (including utilities) a month. And they really overcharge you for the food too so in my experience it’s cheaper if you can find a good deal off campus. But yes I would be worried right now.
