Welcome!
Get ready to Experience Purdue!
We’re glad you’re interested in this exclusive event for exceptional students. Experience Purdue will allow you to explore opportunities at Purdue while you participate in interactive academic sessions with some of our best faculty as well as current Purdue students.
The day’s highlights include two Student Experiences for our registered student guests and concurrent information sessions about financial aid, housing, orientation programs, and more for family members. In addition, lunch will be provided in a student dining court.
See below for a detail summary of the day’s events and then register for Experience Purdue.
Registration for the Student Experiences will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis and to ensure personal interaction between faculty and students, most have limited capacity. Once a session is full it will be closed, and we cannot accommodate waiting lists.
