Worcester Poly Tech FA Package

Two questions Anyone with RD admission to WPI get their Financial Aid Package? Did I miss it in the mail, can I not find it in the portal? My DS want to apply to a scholarship this weekend and needs the FA Letter to make the application complete. and I think due to the “no job at our house” situation, the school is NFW with out this scholarship.

Second- if the financial situation means he can’t go next fall does anyone know their Gap Year policy- I can’t find it on the website.

thanks!

According to the Common Data Set, they allow a one year postponement/gap year.

thanks- it there a link? i would love to see if he could take classes elsewhere and maybe save a year of tuition with community college or local school.

I know I can call monday- but weekends are good for talking LOL

Search for WPI common data set. I think the question is 17 or so. And look at the reddit AMA from earlier this spring. They also said you can do a gap year and be automatically enrolled the next fall. I don’t know how many credits they allow if you are doing as a gap year. Please be aware that some private schools limit the number of credits they allow. Not sure of WPI’s policy.

Is it really a “gap” year if you are attending another college?
