Worcester Polytechnic Institute Merit Scholarships

Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) is a highly selective technological university offering degrees with 40 majors in the pure and applied sciences, engineering, computer science, management and business administration, and the liberal arts. Located in Worcester, Massachusetts, WPI has outstanding teaching facilities and laboratories and a unique academic program that emphasizes professional-level, individually advised project work.

All admitted applicants are automatically considered for academic merit scholarships. The exact amount of the scholarship will be determined by the criteria noted for each award; however, amounts typically range from $10,000 to $25,000 per year. Scholarships are renewable for up to four years of undergraduate study. Most noteworthy, valedictorians, salutatorians, and IB diploma graduates with a diploma score of 40 or greater admitted to WPI are guaranteed an academic merit scholarship package worth a minimum of $20,000 per year.

In addition to merit scholarships WPI offers a limited number of need-based scholarships to international students. Because WPI has limited funds available specifically for talented international students, only a portion of the admitted international students are awarded each year. The awards vary in amount, but typically range from $5,000 to $25,000. These awards are renewed each year, provided the student remains in good academic standing. WPI does not guarantee to meet applicants' full financial need and no combination of awards will exceed the cost of tuition.
