FAQs

Every WPI student will have a financial account managed by the Bursar's Office. This account encompasses various charges and payments, including tuition and fees, room and board, and other applicable expenses. Semester charges are recorded and accessible in Workday, where you have the convenience of printing your own account statement.

WPI does not issue paper or electronic bills via email. Instead, semester charges are posted directly to your student account, allowing you to generate your own statement. When charges are posted, you will receive an email notification through Workday. In Workday, you have the option to add Friends and Family, who can view your account activity, receive proactive email notifications, generate statements, and make payments on your behalf.
