WORCESTER – A total of 2,054 undergraduate students achieved the criteria required for WPI’s fall 2021 Dean’s List.
The criteria for the WPI Dean’s List differs from that of most other universities as WPI does not compute a grade point average (GPA).
Instead, WPI defines the Dean’s List by the amount of work completed at the A level in courses and projects.
