We can’t wait to welcome you to WPI!

We understand that the transition to college can be an exciting yet challenging experience. That's why we offer a range of orientation programs designed to ensure your seamless integration into the WPI community. Our week-long residential bridge programs, Connections Pre-Orientation and International Orientation, takes place in August just before New Student Orientation (NSO) and the Insight Program. Both Connections and International Programs support new and first-year students, providing valuable assistance as you make the transition from high school to college. 

Get ready to kick-start your WPI experience and create connections that will last a lifetime!
