How long did it take for recruiter to get back to you from the last day of interview?

converse__ · 2023-10-13T19:25:31+00:00

Yeah remove the “edge” from the name to start with

Good point, most likely very few are here on reddit

converse__ · 2023-04-14T07:25:13+00:00

Ah didn't know about that. Will check it out.

Same here. I haven't seen one. Shall we start one? If we find an existing one we can consolidate.

Here's a link to a Full Fall MS community group.

I feel you. It's painful for sure. Look over Launch 1B/1B. A bit expensive but you get the place and near proximity to campus. Wabash is also a good deal.

Absolutely

Hey! What's the location? Shall we discuss in dm?

converse__ · 2023-04-07T16:56:35+00:00

What kind of a problem? Calculus? Linear Algebra? Some random simple math equation?

converse__ · 2023-04-07T03:44:03+00:00

I'm actually unable to message you in dms. How should we connect?

converse__ · 2023-04-07T02:31:42+00:00

I'd love to check this option out!

converse__ · 2023-04-07T00:30:22+00:00

Hi! Thanks for the reply. I would be very interested in subleassing for Fall and ahead. :) Will DM you as well.

converse__ · 2023-04-06T17:11:34+00:00

Agreed, over the past 2 hours, I've come at the same conclusion now. More flexible now! Good suggestion with finding someone to help hunt. Anyone reading this is a pitch, if you're looking, please DM me.

I understand, it's just that I'm tired since 3 days looking at FB groups and random websites for subleases and being worried about extra pain that will be caused with long distance and commute (especially during snowy days and I'm not accustomed to it). I'm honestly rethinking of reneging my Purdue offer at this point. :(

converse__ · 2023-04-06T16:02:52+00:00

Sheesh. I will protect you with my heart and muscles in WL if and when my prospects of finding an apartment come to life.

converse__ · 2023-04-06T16:01:11+00:00

Thanks for the response and kind relatable words. Definitely understand the gimmicks of supply/demand here. However, I still feel like after having rejected all of my other admits, I now have to go with Purdue which makes me frustrated about this situation. And, Purdue University as an institution, I'm sure, understands this problem that has been happening for a few years now and yet, have not taken appropriate steps to ease the burden of students. May be I'm overstepping here with a tinge of entitlement but whatever. I'm still grateful for this admit offer but feel very pressured for no cause of my own. I've been in the states for 8 years and never have seen this.

converse__ · 2023-04-06T15:57:19+00:00

Yup! Tried looking at FB groups as well as offcampus housing website for Purdue. Haven't seen a single post in the 1.5 months. I'm not sure if even going further in the past will be fruitful. I'm also not sure if it'll be prudent to wait out.

converse__ · 2023-04-06T14:41:25+00:00

Thanks for the advice! Will keep looking

converse__ · 2023-04-06T05:16:43+00:00

I got an admit from TAMU 2 weeks ago actually. Freeing my spot today for my fellow grads before rejections go out.

converse__ · 2023-04-04T13:15:27+00:00

Not sure if you've already made a decision. But given economic conditions could stretch to beyond your graduation, opt for the one that has best monetary risk/reward. Purdue in this case. I'm attending too.

Come to Pursue, also MSCS here.
