Designed for first-time visitors, WPI’s Preview Day offers an introduction to our campus and academic community. The half-day program includes an information session and a student-led campus tour, providing valuable insight into the WPI experience.

Attendees will also hear from current students representing the School of Arts and Sciences, the School of Engineering, and The Business School during a student panel discussion—an excellent opportunity to learn more about our diverse areas of study.

The program runs from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
