How to Fund Your Graduate Education  

Watch to learn about diverse funding options for part-time and full-time domestic graduate students.

How Online Learning Works  

Learn what it's like to be an online student, how it compares to learning in person, and what the difference is between remote learning and the online modality.
     

Not Ready for a Master's Degree?

 
Did you know that 40% of WPI's new online graduate students start as non-matriculated students (i.e they haven't formally applied to WPI)? In this session we discuss your option to take graduate courses without committing or applying to a master's degree program. If you want to learn a specialized skillset, or you just want to dip your toes in the water before committing to a program, we discuss the many benefits of being a casual course-taker or pursuing a graduate certificate instead—both of which could lead to the completion of a graduate program.
     
The Value of Student Support  

Student support services can make or break your experience as a graduate student. Join us to discover the type of support you can expect as a graduate student at WPI. We'll discuss available resources, career development opportunities, and our dedicated student success managers.
