What Happens in February?

February is one of the busiest months for the Admissions Office. Now that the Patriots have lost it's time to get down to business!!

The application deadline has just passed and we are still busy opening mail and uploading all of the electronic application submissions that came in right at the deadline. The staff is busy "building" all of your applications...which means matching up the application with all of the recommendations, essays, test scores and of course the high school transcripts.

You can track your application at http://admissions.wpi.edu/application.html, but you'll need a log-in and pin. If you applied with the WPI web application you already have it, but if you applied through other means hang in there. We send acknowledgement letters by snail mail and e-mail...the letter will have your log-in and pin.

Please use this tool to keep an eye on your application. As you might imagine we get lots of mail this time of year. Give us a week or so to get you support materials added to the database, we are moving as fast as we can!!

The counseling staff will be busy reading applications over the next several weeks. If you applied regular decision you'll hear back from us by the end of the month.

Wondering who'll be reviewing your application? Check out http://admissions.wpi.edu/Visit/staff.html
