World-Class Value From Day One
Less Debt, Strong Returns
A college degree is an important investment, and one that WPI is committed to helping students achieve. The Office of Student Aid & Financial Literacy assists families in identifying all possible aid options, with loan programs, BS/MS programs in four or five years, and on-campus employment also available. Combine this with above average salaries in high-demand STEM fields, and it all results in prompt debt repayment well above the national average and a high-quality life for students.
Secure Your Financial Future
We consider your first day on campus the start of our mission to prepare you for life after graduation. Our lifetime career services, which include one-on-one coaching, workshops, digital resources, and access to a robust alumni network, have consistently ranked among the best in the nation. And we don’t stop there—we want you to know what to do with your earnings; our financial literacy sessions help you to do just that.
The Value of Projects
It’s because of our revolutionary project-based education that our reputation and value proposition is so strong. Students work as part of teams, challenging them to strategically solve important problems. You learn to manage projects, achieve collaboratively, think creatively, and better communicate your ideas. Along the way, you’ll expand your world-view and gain career-launching professional experience.
