 " The university is good, but the location is not ideal for me because I prefer living in a more modern city. Rent for off-campus apartments is very high if they are close to campus. If the apartment is farther away, the price is more reasonable. "

 " Great School. Definitely room for improvement but love attending Purdue and wouldn't want to go anywhere else. They are always making improvements to campus such as building new dorms and academic buildings which is great but that also means there is always construction going on. "

 " A fine institution, especially in STEM, with a strong focus on job placement, career success, and academics. Especially in engineering, the programs are growing and improving, with significant investment in the buildings, labs, and common spaces. "

 " Purdue University Global makes it easy to fulfill continued education from home. They have wonderful professors who are currently working within the field. The faculty are quick to respond to any questions or problems you run into during your time with them. The education is meaningful, purposeful, and up to date. "

 " I love it here and I feel safe on campus. Even when I get nervous, there is always someone I can call, which makes a big difference.

I really enjoy the projects in my degree. Engineering is challenging at Purdue, but it is worth it in the end. Recruiters value Purdue graduates, which makes all the hard work feel meaningful.

On-campus parking can be difficult, but it is manageable if you are willing to pay for a daily parking pass. "
