WPI engineering acceptance rate?

I'm applying for engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute and I'm a bit stressed about the acceptance rate. Can someone share the acceptance rate for the engineering programs? Is it much tougher to get in compared to other majors?

Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) is well-known for its strong engineering programs, and understandably, there can be some level of concern about the admission competitiveness for these majors.

However, WPI actually doesn't release acceptance rates for specific programs within the university as a whole. The general rate is around 57% - while the engineering rate is likely lower, providing an exact number is tricky.

While I unfortunately can't give you an exact acceptance rate for WPI's engineering programs, if you want specific tips on how to maximize your personal chances of acceptance, check out this blog post from CollegeVine, which breaks down how to tackle WPI's school-specific supplemental essays: https://blog.collegevine.com/how-to-write-the-worcester-polytechnic-institute-essays

Alternatively, you might consider participating in a summer program related to engineering. CollegeVine's blog has a list of reputable ones for high schoolers: https://blog.collegevine.com/high-school-engineering-summer-programs/. Admissions officers love to see that you're taking initiative and pursuing your interests outside of the classroom!

Good luck with your application!
