How will rushing ATO affect my academic experience at Purdue?
Here at ATO, we strive to create an environment rooted in academic excellence for all our members, and that includes our potential new members during rush. With active members studying a wide range of majors, many past rushees have had access to upperclassmen information and mentorship regarding academics, as well as getting to know brothers who share the same classes as them. Our last two pledge classes have had an average GPA of 3.41 which is well above the Purdue average. It can be said that rushing ATO may improve your academic experience due to the unique resources and information available to you coming from brothers.
