Advice For Students

Some advice I would give to prospective students coming into Purdue is this: stay true to who you are, but don’t be afraid to embrace the growth that comes with change. College is a big step into your journey, and along the road, you will encounter moments that’ll challenge you, change your perspectives, and refine your thinking. Despite this, don’t shy away from these new encounters; instead, approach them head-on and lean into them. Use the mistakes you made, lessons learned, and turn them into newfound wisdom. And always remember your journey is unique to YOU! No one’s path will be the same, so never feel discouraged if your journey is imperfect. Get back up and continue moving because one day it’ll all be worth it!
