Deferred Payment Plan

A deferred payment plan is available for the fall and spring semesters. By paying a per semester fee of $100, students may divide up to $5,000 of their tuition into two equal monthly payments. For specifics, please contact the Accounting Office at +1-508-831-5203 or accounting@wpi.edu.

Company Promissory Notes allow companies to provide their employees with a voucher or promissory note, to be submitted by the student along with their registration form. Once received, WPI bills the company for the tuition payment to ensure that payment is received within thirty (30) days of the start of the semester. For details and approval to use this method of payment, please contact WPI's Accounting Office at +1-508-831-5741.
