Requirements
Admission
Requirements for Beginning Students
High
school diploma or GED
All
applicants must either graduate from high school or have a GED.
Subject-matter
requirements
Purdue
has established subject-matter requirements in English, math, and
laboratory science; students who graduate from high school starting in
2004 may have foreign language requirements as well. These requirements
vary among the schools and programs, so the minimum standards you must
meet depend on the program to which you are applying.
Applicants
who meet the minimum subject-matter requirements are evaluated on the
basis of quality. Quality includes much more than just high school
class rank; it also encompasses your probability of success, overall
grade average, grade average in degree-related subjects, trends in
achievement, SAT and/or ACT scores, and the strength of your college
prep program. Purdue gives preference to Indiana residents.
For
most programs, your overall academic record should reflect upper-half
quality. Like the subject-matter requirements, however, specific
quality requirements vary among the schools and programs. The quality
requirements that you must meet depend on the program you want, space
availability in the program, and the time of year when you apply. For
these reasons, students are strongly encouraged to apply early!
