Returning Undergraduate Students

Students Must Reapply for Need-Based Financial Aid Annually

To re-apply students must complete the FAFSA and the WPI Upper Class Application.  If you filed a FAFSA last year the U.S. Department of Education will email you a 2013-2014 reminder sometime between January 13, 2013 and February 10, 2013.  This reminder will guide you to the Renewal FAFSA on the FAFSA website

The 2013-2014 WPI Financial Aid Upper Class Application can be downloaded and printed. The completed form, which requires signatures from both the student and a parent, should be mailed to:

WPI Financial Aid Processing Center
P.O. Box 850
Randolph, MA 02368

The CSS PROFILE Application is no longer a requirement for most returning undergraduate students, but is required if:

  • The student’s parents have separated or divorced since the previous year's financial aid application was filed
  • The roles of the student’s custodial and non-custodial parents have changed from the previous year
  • The student did not apply for need-based financial aid last year or was recently re-admitted to WPI

Awards are made shortly after July 4.
