The only way you're going to be able to experience real WPI life is to live here. The choice is yours. You may remember your professors or your tour with the concert band, but one thing you'll never forget about your college years is the friends you make. Those friendships begin where you hang your hat. At WPl, residential life begins in our residence halls.
Many students later move on to fraternities and sororities, or to off-campus housing.
WPI works hard to make sure your experience in the dorms is a good one. It won't be exactly like home, though in some ways it will be even better. Here's a look at what makes residential living what it is. The first time you meet your roommate, you won't be strangers. Over the summer, Residential Services will let you know who you'll be living with so you can get to know that person ahead of time.
