REGISTER      WHO'S COMING?



Alumni Weekend is our favorite time of the year, when our alumni family returns to their home on The Hill to revisit favorite campus spots, reunite with friends and classmates, and relive the traditions and memories that make the WPI experience special. Whether you’ve been a regular visitor to campus, or haven’t been back since you graduated, Alumni Weekend is the perfect time to reminisce about your time as a student and make new memories.

Please join us in Worcester for Alumni Weekend 2023 - Friday, May 19 through Sunday, May 21.

Alumni Weekend is open to all WPI alumni and their guests. Undergraduate classes ending in 3 and 8 will celebrate class reunions, but a majority of the events throughout the weekend are for ALL alumni.

More information about Alumni Weekend can be found on the Alumni Weekend website. Registration is open through Sunday, May 14.



Please make sure that the Office of Lifetime Engagement has your current contact information on file, including your email address, so we can keep you informed about all the plans. Complete this form if you need to update your information.
