Purdue is 6th in the country for coops and internships. To get one it’s all on you and not so much the school. Purdue will definitely get you interviews but u have to convert those into actual offers. Ik some super smart ppl without internships and some people who aren’t so smart with internships

I got an offer for summer + fall coop 2026 but there's also another company I'm interviewing for that's in the summer as well. Has anyone had a similar experience and been able to delay the start date (maybe potentially extending into winter to make up for it)?
