- The application fee (waived for current WPI undergraduates and WPI alumni)
- One letter of recommendation
- Official TOEFL/IETLS test scores required for international students who come from countries where English is not their first language.
- For all Foisie Business School graduate programs the minimum score for the TOEFL exam is 90 and the IELTS minimum score is 7.
- Applicants who have completed two years of full-time study in a college or university in the U.S., U.K., Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, or the Anglophone regions or Africa, Canada, or the Caribbean, within five years of matriculating at WPI are not required to submit TOEFL or IELTS* scores.
