How god damn long do I have to dry my clothes? | I live in Cary and I want to dry my clothes at a low temperature, but it seems like they never get dry.

Is it possible to change advisors | My advisor sucks. Like really bad. I’ve changed my major a few times, and I’m set on this one, so I’m not going to CODO out to get a new advisor, but if there’s a way to change who I have I would love that. We don’t vibe well together, and she doesn’t understand what I need. I had a 200 level class for my minor, with a teacher I like, set up, and she said I needed a 300 level to get done with my minor, so I dropped the class because I didn’t need it. And then through my Purdue plan I found out I actually only need a 200 level class, like the one I already wanted to take, and when I tried to sign up for it this semester it was full. She doesn’t communicate at all, and every meeting is awkward. I just want a new one, is there any way to do that | 2020-04-28T19:02:11 | https://www.reddit.com/r/Purdue/comments/g9t98b/is_it_possible_to_change_advisors/ | bees422 | 43,055 |

I just got my course schedule back and I am seeing that PES115BWL - bowling has 3 classes a week even though it is 1 credit. Does that mean we have to go all 3 times, or is it a glitch, or do we attend 1/3 classes?

Question about Masks | I've been training for a half marathon and been running a lot and usually don't wear a mask when I do, since I can avoid people and go early in the morning anyways when there's not many out.
But with Purdue's mask mandate, do I still have to wear one on my runs? For those that run on/off campus, have you been wearing a mask?
Just want to be on the correct side of this :) | 2020-08-17T16:09:14 | https://www.reddit.com/r/Purdue/comments/ibh0qq/question_about_masks/ | JustAnotherAnimation | 48,063 |
Registration question ("free time") | When I went to pre register to classes,I saw that there was an option of putting "free time" and then choosing the time you prefer, but I don't know how this works.
My counselor didn't say anything about this, I assumed that if they told everybody, a lot of people would mark "free time" for the 7 am classes, is that correct?
What happens if I mark "free time" and a certain class is only avaliable in that time?
Does it matter if I put the "free time" last in the order of priority?

God-Awful Reception on Campus | Has anyone else been having insanely bad reception when they've been on campus this week? I have AT&T and I know there have always been a few dead zones on campus, but this most places have reception that's been prohibitively terrible for me.
There are areas of campus where I will suddenly drop to 0 bars of service like I'm in the middle of the wilderness. I'm not sure if it's PAL/eduroam interfering with my bandwidth (If that's even possible(?) I'm not an IT major), but it's really annoying when I'm on a call and it will just drop, or if I'm listening to music and it'll suddenly stop playing.
Has anyone else been experiencing this? I don't wanna sound like a whiny brat, but I would like more clarity so I know whether it's a campus-wide issue or if I should get my phone checked out.

Reslife RANT- RA perspective | A little rant coming........
I have been a RA for three years and the way that reslife is handling this academic year has been awful. They are asking way too much of the student staff and honestly the RECs as well.
1. RAs do not get holiday time (understandable bc of the new schedule) but we are then being asked to do weekend day duty and desk duty that was not included in our original contract.
2. THANKSGIVING- the only vacation that we have, we need to schedule it as a vacation duty. Meaning multiple RAS from each dorm need to stay over Thanksgiving. THIS IS ARE ONLY BREAK. Usually how vacation duty works is that we schedule all the holidays(Labor day, Fall Break, Spring Break,etc.) at the beginning of the semester so RAs can plan out when they can go home.
3. We get to leave December 12 for Winter break, but then we have to return to school on Jan 7. That is 12 days before school starts. We usually come 3 days before the start of the semester. I promise you we will not be doing anything important those 12 days.
4. WE are students first. Not having holidays/vacation is causing every student to burn out and it's worst for RAs bc we technically only get 10 days off a semester. At least last year we got holidays but not anymore.
5. My direct supervisors (REC and REA) are doing a great job with the limited knowledge that is given to them by the higher-ups. Higher-ups in Res-life do better. RAs do a lot for this campus, respect us and our time.

[Prospective Transfer] Applied Math @ Purdue? | Hey everyone, as the title suggests, I’m considering to apply to Purdue for transfer (Fall ‘22). I’m looking at applying for applied math and would like to know what current and former students think about the program. According to the website, I meet the bare minimum requirements for the program (I have a 3.52 GPA and will be taking Calculus 1 in the spring; I’m believe in myself that I can get at least a C. According to the transfer equivalency, the Calc 1 class at my college transfers over as MA 16500).
I am reading older Reddit posts similar to this question and see 2 sides of the equation: some people say it’s notoriously though, and others are saying people are exaggerating how hard math is at Purdue. What is your true experience with Math at Purdue?
Obviously, I will continue to do more in-depth research on my end and appreciate any comments in advance :) | 2021-10-09T05:13:56 | https://www.reddit.com/r/Purdue/comments/q4eqg6/prospective_transfer_applied_math_purdue/ | latinoworkforce | 69,729 |
Tips on how to get motivated to get your work done online from someone thats had to do a lot of classes that were in person without actually being able to attend class | **TL:DR: Forget motivation, get into a routine and force yourself to abide by it. Motivation is great and all but it will be easier to get stuff done when you begin working on stuff without really having to even think about it, you just automatically sit down and begin to work. Get into a daily routine NOW. Do not be where you relax, find a place that is dedicated to getting work done. Just take that first step of sitting down with your materials, that is generally the hardest, focus on getting to that point, the rest will come easier. If you have to rely on motivation, you arent going to get stuff done, you have to make it a part of your routine. Motivation is what you use to start something new, if you have to use it every single day, you will lose your motivation and find yourself right back where you were.**
So as a personal background so you can all know where I am coming from, basically as soon as I started college, my physical health decided to just take a nose dive, requiring me to have 3 major surgeries over 6 years. In early fall 2014, my aortic valve decided to just basically stop working, I originally went to IU Health in Indy, they said they couldnt help me, sent me to chicago and had my 2nd open heart surgery up there. That surgery did something to my back and turned me into a chronic pain patient. I would frequently have episodes (for the first 2 years, at least 1 a month and in the first 6 months, 2-3 per month) that were so painful, I physically couldnt walk without collapsing from the pain. I only had 2 options, remain in bed and on my pain killers or go to the ER where they give me the stronger stuff and knock the pain episode out and I am able to be on my feet at 100% the next day. If I took option 1, I would typically be laid up in bed for a week, unable to attend class.
At the beginning of each semester, I informed my professors of this, gave them my DRC accommodations, and they helped me set things up so I wouldnt miss a single thing if I couldnt come to class, everything I needed was online.
Now, because of this, it is all too easy to get into a rut and forget to get work done. It happened a couple times to me and I have had to take my fair share of retroactive medical withdrawals (so say I get an F in a class and I can prove it happened due to medical issues (psychological ones are also accepted, regardless, you will need documentation from a medical professional), I can file a retroactive medical withdrawal, provide a personal statement, documents from my dr's, and the course coordinator's signature and my advisors signature, the registrars office handles the appeal and they sit down and meet with the department head, typically if the department head signs off, the registrars office also signs off, currently for retroactive medical withdrawals, Lesa Beals handles them, she's awesome and will go to great lengths to help you.) It was a VERY costly lesson to learn. Learn from my mistakes so you can make different, hopefully cheaper ones.
I had everything I needed to be able to not go to class. I fucked up a couple times and slacked off because of it, I lacked a routine because this situation was so new to me. Get into a routine. NOW.
**Set a daily alarm, wake up at the same time every day during the week, go through your morning ritual, eat breakfast (even if you don't eat breakfast typically), grab your stuff, head to an area in your house/apartment that you typically do not go if you are trying to decompress and relax. Sit down, and just open up the book, your computer (there are programs that you can install that will prevent you from accessing certain sites between certain times so you can't get sidetracked), etc. It is the first step that is the hardest, being in a routine makes it easier. Trust me when I say, it is easier to do this now, than after you graduate and are beginning to live and work by normal hours.** | 2020-03-27T05:15:09 | https://www.reddit.com/r/Purdue/comments/fpr7zy/tips_on_how_to_get_motivated_to_get_your_work/ | LonesomeObserver | 41,527 |

Rules and breaking them? Quick dumb little question about a router. | Pretty much I’m bring my stereo system which I use sonos to send stuff to my amp. How bad of a problem would it be for me to bring a router and use it so I can password protect access to my sonos box. I really don’t need one of finding it at like 2am connecting to it and then making the building shake.
There are other ways to go about it, it’s just the easiest way to do so. | 2022-08-14T16:37:52 | https://www.reddit.com/r/Purdue/comments/woalkk/rules_and_breaking_them_quick_dumb_little/ | HellsFrogs | 84,800 |

Transfer into Engineering from Exploratory Studies? | Hello all.
I am a high school senior who recently got accepted to Purdue to Exploratory Studies after being waitlisted from the school of engineering. My goal is to probably major in Electrical or Computer Engineering.
I'm curious what's the process for getting in to Engineering if I decide to go here? I know its not guaranteed, but what will be the best route for me to take to have the best chance of transferring successfully? Is it like a GPA requirement and you're in? How easy/hard will it be? Any help would be greatly appreciated. | 2017-01-25T23:19:23 | https://www.reddit.com/r/Purdue/comments/5q6pay/transfer_into_engineering_from_exploratory_studies/ | xXTB0NESXx | 12,021 |

Failed Calc 2 final | Idk what to feel. The worst part is that I've failed this class before (D). Though my grades are improved, it's the midterms that bring me down. I tried studying earlier and noticed a considerable improvement but I couldn't get around the final. I understand that the final in particular was harder for a lot of people and not a lot of people like Glubokov's teaching (myself included) but that is only just consolation for me at this point.
​
For context, my MyLab score is about a 57. Horrible. Better than last semester but still nearly not enough.
​
I didn't prepare well enough for the final due to a mix-up of the exam times (which is still my fault). Reason this is mentioned is because I had a work shift the day before from 5-10 pm, meaning when I got home I had 12 hours to finish studying for the exam assuming I didn't fall asleep; so that's already about 5 hours of study time. I started my general final prep a lot earlier but I took a break to focus on the CHM final I had the day before.
A lot of the people in my recitation got the score I did or around the same range but the average was a bit higher than the bracket (the average was a 52 compared to a bracket of 32-36).
​
Honestly don't know what to do. Idk how helpful a curve will be but if I'm already praying for a curve something isn't right. | 2022-05-07T02:42:46 | https://www.reddit.com/r/Purdue/comments/uk3r2u/failed_calc_2_final/ | sjfagbo | 81,247 |

Help with DURI? | Hey there, so I’m a freshman in Robotics Engineering Technology right now and I’ve really been struggling finding research. I might be jumping the gun a little but I’ve been emailing my professors and none of them have research available right now. I really don’t have any research experience but I’m super dedicated and I’ve been trying to get some. I’ve looked into DURI online and I know today was meant to be the first day students can apply but when I went to the site, it said no projects available. How do I apply to DURI projects online, and when?

Financial aid | I recently received my financial aid information through the myPurdue portal. It shows my estimated cost of attendance and below it, a number which it says I was awarded. I reasonably assumed this was a merit scholarship due to my high GPA and ACT score, but when I went to the summary of expenses it says this money is a federal unsubsidized loan. Does this mean I recurved no scholarships? Why does it say awarded if it's a loan? | 2019-02-23T22:28:22 | https://www.reddit.com/r/Purdue/comments/au0ypt/financial_aid/ | fultron3000 | 26,245 |

Do most people confuse Purdue Global with Purdue? | I did tell a friend that I was going to apply as a transfer for Purdue business and he immediately asked me if I was going to do the online BA from Purdue Global. He must've seen a lot of those Purdue Global ads, so it was hard for him to distinguish between the two. Purdue Global runs a lot of nursing ads. I personally know that Purdue has a great business program, but most people in California appear to think that Purdue is an online school like DeVry.
If I go to this school, I do hope that people don't assume that I earned a degree online from a campus that is a really a basement with servers. I honestly think that Purdue Global should re-name itself because everyone knows that those graduates are going to list "Purdue" on their resumes. I can't in full confidence put Purdue on my resume when there are employers assuming that I went to Purdue Global. | 2020-07-12T20:45:13 | https://www.reddit.com/r/Purdue/comments/hq1p6v/do_most_people_confuse_purdue_global_with_purdue/ | christopherbillions | 46,054 |
