Why I chose Purdue: I went to all small schools before I came to Purdue. It was close to home but still far enough for a fresh start and a needed big change.
Best-kept secret about Purdue: I don't know if it's really a secret, but with Purdue being so big it seems overwhelming at first. However, I personally feel that if you can find something to connect to on campus, whether it be community service, joining a fraternity/sorority, a dance club, a religious group, or any of the hundreds of organizations Purdue has, if you have that connection, Purdue really can feel like your home away from home.
