<p>I've always really liked Wake, but I've heard that religion is huge there.
Is religion really as predominant as sites like college p r o w l e r make it out to be? Would an agnostic northerner fit in?</p>
<p>I realize that you guys get a lot of posts on here asking about how southern or white the school is, but to be honest, neither of those things bother me. I'm more concerned about religion. I don't want to spend 4 years at Bible Thumping U. </p>
<p>Religion is not huge at Wake. It has Baptist roots, but this is definitely not Bible Thumping U. You can even opt out of taking a Religion course (you take 2 courses from History, Philosophy, and Religion).</p>
<p>An agnostic northerner would fit in at Wake, without a doubt.</p>
<p>Yeah, no one will bother you at Wake if you're not religious. And, as freakadeac said, they've even changed the divisional requirements so that you don't have to take a religion (for my class it's a requirement, but it doesn't have to be a Christianity course).</p>
