WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. —<\/p> \n

Purdue University has extended the admission deposit deadline for first-year undergraduates to give students and families more flexibility as they review their admission and financial aid offers. Newly admitted Boilermakers will now have until at least May 15 to accept their offer from the university.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The decision was made after the U.S. Department of Education announced delays to the release schedule for the Free Application for Student Aid (FAFSA), which helps eliminate financial barriers and promote equal access to education for students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn extending the decision deadline, the university aims to provide students and families with additional time to review all of their options so they can make the most informed decision for their future,\u201d said Cherise Hall, vice provost for enrollment management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the U.S. Department of Education announces additional FAFSA delays, the university will communicate any necessary changes to students and families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A net price calculator<\/a> is available on the Division of Financial Aid<\/a> website for students and families to plan for educational costs and estimate their financial aid package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result of the FAFSA delays, two key housing deadlines will also be extended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The housing priority deadline for learning communities<\/a> and mutually selected roommates will be extended to May 5. The overall housing deadline, which guarantees a space for new beginners, will be extended to May 19. Additional information about residential housing at Purdue can be found on the University Residences<\/a> website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
