    Graduate students who are 30 years or older or in a fully remote program do not need to submit immunization records.
  • January 4 - New Student Move In

    New students who are living on campus will move in on January 4. You will receive your move-in time from our Housing and Residential Education office via email.

    Please check your E-Bill to ensure it is paid in full, on a payment plan and/or covered by alternative resources. Students with a hold will not be permitted to move on campus. A balance due hold will be placed on a student’s account anytime there is a balance owed. A balance due hold prevents a student from moving into housing, registering for classes, viewing grades, and receiving a transcript.

  • January 6 - Vector Solutions Workshops (undergraduates only)

    At Wentworth, we believe in the importance of creating a safe and healthy environment for all our community members. To that end, we have partnered with Vector Solutions to provide trainings that will help us all be informed on topics vital to achieving our goal.

    Completion of your Vector Solutions courses is mandatory for all incoming students. If you have difficulty logging in, check out the technical info at the bottom of this email. The education from these modules will help you to:

    • Build motivation to intervene in and identify situations of bias and harm
    • Increase help-seeking behavior and support identification of risky behaviors
    • Reflect on your knowledge, attitudes, and personal experiences

    Click here to begin. You will need your WIT username to access the courses. Please ensure that you have completed all sections by January 6. Note, the checklist item will update once all three sections (Alcohol and Other Drugs; Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for Students; Sexual Assault Prevention for Undergraduates) have been completed.
