A gateway for students seeking off-campus resources for food assistance, housing, transportation, healthcare, childcare and technology.
At Purdue University, we believe no student should have to choose between their education and their basic needs. Our office exists to help students access vital resources like food assistance, housing and more. By working with students directly and collaborating with faculty and staff, we are removing barriers so Boilermakers can focus on succeeding.
Our office hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information or assistance, contact us directly by calling, emailing or visiting our office.
