APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS   Students who have attended another college or university since their last enrollment at Purdue must provide the Office of Admissions with an official transcript from that institution.

APPLICATION DEADLINES   Due to limitations of staff and facilities, Purdue University North Central may not be able to accommodate all qualified applicants in particular curricula. The University reserves the right to close admission to any program as it is filled, and admission to certain programs may close without advance notice.

Applications should be completed and submitted 30 days prior to the start of any given semester. There is no assurance that applications received beyond the 30-day guideline can be processed.

FINANCIAL AID   The Purdue Division of Financial Aid (DFA) administers a variety of financial aid programs. Programs at the federal, state, and University levels are available to students who demonstrate need for financial assistance.

If you are interested in receiving financial aid, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) must be received by the federal processor by March 10 of the year you will begin attending Purdue. The FAFSA is available from your high school guidance office or the Purdue North Central Financial Aid Office.

GRADUATION & PLACEMENT   Information regarding employment and placement of recent Purdue University North Central graduates is available upon request from the Purdue University North Central Placement Office.

NONDISCRIMINATION   Purdue University North Central is an equal access/equal opportunity university. No qualified person will be denied admission or employment, nor will any student or employee be subjected to discriminatory treatment or be excluded from participation in any educational program or activity on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, age, national origin, disability, or status as a disabled Vietnam era veteran.

SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER   The social security number is requested as the best and most effective way to uniquely identify you for the purpose of accurately processing and maintaining your educational records. This number will be used as a student identification number and is restricted to internal University use: for example, matching admission applications with SAT or GRE scores, matching admission status with financial aid, obtaining transcripts during and after graduation. If you do not want the University to use your social security number as your student identification number, you will not be penalized. Also, you may request the University to discontinue the use of your social security number as your identification number and purge its records of that number at any time in the future. In either case, the University will then assign another number to you. Your student identification number, whether your social security number or University assigned number, must be used for all subsequent educational record inquiries and processing.

RECORDS   All records submitted by and on behalf of an applicant become the property of Purdue University.

RESIDENCE   Purdue University reserves the right to request documentary evidence in support of a residence claim.

VETERANS   A veteran must submit a copy of the Form DD214 after completion of service in the armed forces for possible credit for military service experience.

INQUIRIES   All inquiries should be directed to the Office of Admissions.
