WORCESTER, Mass. — Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) has announced the university’s Dean’s List for academic excellence for the spring 2026 semester.
The criteria for the WPI Dean’s List differ from that of most other universities as WPI does not compute a grade point average (GPA). Instead, WPI students are named to the Dean’s List based on the amount of work completed at the A level in courses and hands-on projects.
The following students were recognized:
- Shelton, Connecticut resident Andrew Flamini, class of 2028, majoring in Business
- Seymour, Connecticut resident Faith Crosby, class of 2027, majoring in Mechanical Engineering
- Shelton, Connecticut resident Leo Southam, class of 2027, majoring in Biomedical Engineering
- Oxford, Connecticut resident Maya Mussel, class of 2028, majoring in Environmental Engineering
- Seymour, Connecticut resident Zachary Jones, class of 2028, majoring in Mechanical Engineering
“WPI’s academic programs are rigorous and require a level of independence beyond what is required in traditional courses. WPI students work on real-world, open-ended problems on campus and in communities around the globe. Far from being simple academic exercises, the projects students complete have genuine and lasting impacts in our partner communities,” said Provost Andrew Sears. “Some of this nation’s best and brightest students come to WPI to study engineering, science, business, and the humanities. Those named to the Dean’s List have excelled in all of their work, and we are exceptionally proud of these outstanding students.”
