Purdue University-Main Campus Top Questions

I belive that a person shouldn't attend this school if they are afraid to be around large crowds or just a huge campus in general. If you are shy, you'll have to learn to be outgoing in order to make the best of your college experience here.

The type of person who shouldn't attend Purdue is one who wants to be warm all the time. Purdue is in a cold climate area and isn't the best for those who want sun the majority of the time. More importantly, if you are a person who doesn't like to do homework but to well on all the tests then this is not the school for you. You need to come to Purdue with the attitude of wanting to work hard. Purdue is for those with drive and motivation.

The only kind of person who shouldn't attend Purdue is the person who is not willing to work for their degree. Purdue will challenge students academically, and there will always be something to work on. There is time for recreational activities, but every student needs to know what the proper balance is between work and recreation.

People who really want small class sizes should not attend Purdue. Most classes have 50+ people sometimes reaching 400people in a lecture hall.

In my opinion, virtually all types of students would find it easy to feel at home at Purdue. However, those who are looking for a small school may find Purdue a bit intimidating. And most importantly, if you are a person who loves the sun and warm weather year round, make sure you are ready to adapt to a completely different climate. Winters at Purdue are brutal, but as long as you know what to expect and bundle up, you should be fine. Even though it may not seem like it, spring WILL come, I promise.

A person who loves the city and being close to a city. A person who doesn't like to go to a predominatly white school. A person who doesn't like to a big university.

A person who is used to a small town, has narrow-minded views on the world, and is afraid of people should not attend Purdue University.

An unmotivated/lazy person should not attend Purdue University. Most majors here require undivided attention and plenty of studying. Spending an entire weekend partying usually causes one to fall behind, so it is in the best interest of the student to remain focused and keep their eyes on their goal in life.

Lazy, unenergetic, and people not willing to work hard for their degree.

The kind of person who shouldn't attend this school is someone that is not a self starter, or who cannot work without supervision.
