I definitely think you can get in! Probably with a University scholarship Your test scores may be weak but your extra curriculars are good.

I think you have a good chance, but I would hesitate to say you are definitely in. The ACT score interquartile range is 27-32, and you’re closer to the 25th percentile. Test scores are not everything and your test scores are not bad, but some applicants have done better in that respect.

From what you’ve written, WPI would be a reasonable reach school. I’d suggest applying to WPI but also having some matches and safeties safeties. You might get at a scholarship; I’m not sure how to evaluate your “chances” there.
