Fall Visit Options
On-Campus Open House: Monday, October 9 and Friday, November 10

Fall Preview Day: Saturday, September 16
Designed for a first time visit to campus, the fall preview day will begin with an information session and campus tour led by a WPI student. After the tour, you will then have the option to attend an academic presentation from the School of Arts and Sciences, School of Engineering or The Business School to learn more about the different areas of study at WPI. This half-day program will run from 9 am to 12 pm. If this date and time does not work for you, we recommend the Fall Open Houses where the same information will be covered.
