Why did you choose Purdue?

In my sophomore year of high school, I attended a 1-week summer engineering program hosted by the Minority Engineering Program (MEP) called Preface. Preface sparked my interest in Purdue's engineering program and introduced me to h3 support systems in place for minority engineering students like me. With Purdue having a top engineering program as well, I was confident that Purdue would be the right choice for me.
