No. Documents go to different fax lines at Purdue University depending on the office. The line for the Office of the Registrar is separate from the one for admissions. Confirm the correct line for the office you are reaching, and check it still accepts fax. Keep the confirmed number with your file so you are not searching next time.
At minimum, the student's name, student ID, and date of birth belong on each page. Note the target office — the Office of the Registrar, admissions, or the financial aid office — on the cover sheet. Include a signed FERPA release when the request is for records that are not your own. Complete, legible identifiers are what move the request fastest.
You can send to Purdue University any time, though routine requests are worked during business hours. Processing at the Office of the Registrar generally runs Monday through Friday during business hours. A request sent overnight is picked up the next business day, and processing slows around registration and finals. Plan routine requests for a weekday morning when the office is fully staffed.
The answer varies by document and office at Purdue University. Financial aid verification is frequently collected through a secure student portal now. So confirm the office still accepts fax before you send, and use its portal when that is what it asks for. Either way, do not assume — the office's own instructions are the authority.
