Visiting College Rep Schedule

Thursday - Worcester Polytechnic Institute

Today we have an admission counselor from Worcester Polytechnic Institute coming at mentor period. WPI is located in, shocking! Worcester, MA, which is about 5 hours from here. They’ve got a little under 5000 students, and their first year class is about 1300 students. So that comes to about a 14:1 student-faculty ratio.

WPI offers 37 fields of study, most of which are science, engineering, or mathematics based. However, for those of you thinking, Yes! I won’t have to take an English class, sorry, there is a humanities and arts requirement as part of the curriculum. However, one of the ways you can fulfill this requirement is through something they have called the Global Projects Program where you can receive a scholarship to travel to one of their 50 project centers around the world and do hands on work to solve real-world problems.

Friday - Gettysburg College

All meetings will take place during mentor period in The Nest. Any questions...just ask Mrs. Gillespie.
