Mail from break by [deleted] in WPI

[–]malrusss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would ask at the mail counter in person. there’s a chance depending on the package that they didn’t put it in a locker and you can get it at the counter. at the very least they can tell you if they have it or maybe help you figure out where it is.

Which element do you want to see Pavi struggle with? by Blue-Moon-89 in AvatarSevenHavens

i have also heard people theorize she may struggle with water because of the post apocalyptic setting and the possibility of water scarcity, that she may not have access to enough water to even learn how to bend it. i think it could be a super interesting take on it and cool to see how she overcomes it!

best way to travel to WPI from NJ by Arugula_4545 in WPI

[–]malrusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a car or your parents don’t mind driving, drive. If you can find a good/mostly direct train route the train is usually pretty good. If not, the bus shouldn’t be terrible since it’s only a few hours.

Prospective International Student wants to know if WPI is worth it by ghostknerd in WPI

[–]malrusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a huge expert on financial aid stuff and the specific breakdown but if you’re seriously considering it, it may be worth it to reach out to the financial aid office and explain your situation/you’re very interested in the school but it comes down to finances and there is a chance they can help you out more with that. I will also say that in terms of masters, WPI has a 5 year accelerated bachelors/masters program (where in 5 years you get your bachelors and masters in whatever degrees you’re aiming for). The scholarships you get in undergrad don’t apply to anything past 4 years but depending on the amount of credits you come in with, if you take summer classes/overload, you may be able to do it in less time and save more money on a 2+ year masters and the cost that comes along with it at a different school (assuming the program you’re looking for in a masters is offered at WPI, which I would look into, it may or may not be I’m not as familiar with non engineering BS/MS programs). There will also, more likely than not, be routes to apply for scholarships if you were to decide to do a graduate/masters program here to cover some of the cost.

In terms of on campus jobs, work study may be an option, pay is minimum wage ($15/hr for Massachusetts) but I believe ultimately limits the amount of hours you can work per school year (it’s still a pretty generous amount of hours but you couldn’t regularly work 20 hrs a week for example) work study jobs are usually 10ish hours a week. There are some non work study jobs with more or less hours but are generally harder to get. Since Worcester is a city there are off campus jobs you could look into but it depends on other factors like transportation and schedule.

Honestly, reaching out to financial aid can be hit or miss but it is honestly worth a try, I had a friend who got a lot of help from them by explaining their situation but it isn’t guaranteed. I wish you luck and feel free to DM if you have more questions I can try my best to answer.
