<p>Im trying to get an idea of people's stats who were admitted into wake. did you interview? turn in SATs? have good recs? legacy?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>if you post, congrats on getting in.</p>
<p>bump</p>
<p>This year:</p>
<p>Applied and got in ED</p>
<p>Out of State
3.74 gpa with a lot of APs/honors at a top school
29 ACT sent
interview (went extremely well) and 2 visits
no legacy
very good ECs and recs</p>
<p>good luck!</p>
<p>I had a good interview.</p>
<p>HS GPA: 3.6 for all intents and purposes. My HS didn’t rank because it was super competitive so we got percentiles of some sort.
SATs: 2230. Sent them. I also took 3 SAT IIs and I remember that 2 were over 700 and 1 was in the 600s (that was Spanish) but I don’t really remember them well.
I legitimately had a laundry list of ECs.
I had no AP scores at the time (although I took all honors & AP classes) but I ended up with two 4s and two 5s (and two 2s but we won’t talk about those… both had extenuating circumstances). </p>
<p>Not a legacy … have no idea what my recs were like. I also have no idea if my essays were good or not – I think they were good though because I remember liking the short answers.</p>
<p>Statistically, I believe my son represents the midpoint of WFU admitted students:</p>
<p>3.6 uwGPA/ 4.0 wGPA
1330 SAT (sent them)
29 ACT (sent it)
7 APs
24 Honors
Varsity track, XC captain
NHS
Percussion leader
Elementary mentor
2nd dgree black belt</p>
<p>Interviewed on campus</p>
<p>Wild card: Son applied RD. He received a 4-year Army ROTC scholarship and chose Wake as the school where he’d like to use it. As a result, his application was “flagged” in admissions. In mid-Feb they asked him to “improve his chances” by switching to ED. He did and was admitted 3 days later. I really think that ED switch was a formality so they could expedite his case for ROTC purposes.</p>
<p>Daughter’s was accepted ED:</p>

<p>Thanks for all of your responses. I am looking to apply to Wake ED and was wondering where I stood compared to others who had recently been accepted</p>
