WPI is a school you love or hate. I love WPI. It's a small school with a very individual and progressive program. Some people have a hard time keeping up with the 4 7-week terms system. You only get about 28 hrs of class time, so you have to do a lot of learnign outside. We have three big projects that you can throw yourself into. If you don't like working groups (engineers should be able to though)or focusing on one project for months, or writing long thesis-style papers, then watch out. There's a lot of history at WPI, and some great discoveries have/are being made there (bithrplace of rocket science). It's a cool little school, teachers are awesome, projects are fun, and you have wonderful career options coming out.
