First-year

Apply to Purdue starting August 1. Students who apply by the Early Action Application Deadline on November 1 receive priority consideration for our most competitive majors and benefit from an early admissions decision on January 15, as well as automatic consideration for our full range of merit-based scholarships (U.S. Citizens & U.S. Permanent Residents only). For a complete list of deadlines, please visit purdue.ws/deadlines.

Transfer

Transferring to any school can be difficult, but we aim to make it easy! Before you can apply as a transfer student, you must complete at least 12 credit hours of college-level coursework. Remedial college courses and advance/dual college credit (earned as part of high school coursework or test scores such as AP and IB) does not count toward this minimum. Depending on your major, there are different deadlines for each semester. For a complete list of resources and deadlines, please visit: purdue.ws/transfer.
