I believe WPI places a lot of emphasis on GPA in admissions decisions. I have seen students on this forum who got into other very good schools, but were rejected or wait listed at WPI probably due to a lower GPA. In addition, without standardized test scores, you have no quantitative way to demonstrate you will be successful academically. Why are your grades low? And why are your test scores low? Take Hpuck’s advice, and think about whether WPI specifically, and engineering generally, are good fits for you. It’s great that you are engaged in robotics and leading your club. But, it’s secondary to achieving in the classroom.
