Dear ___,

Greetings from Winston-Salem, North Carolina! I’m writing you because Wake Forest University would like to offer you admission as a member of the class of 2021. Congratulations!

The Admissions Office at Wake Forest University is busy preparing your acceptance packet. This packet will be sent via DHL early next week and should arrive within two weeks. To ensure you receive your package, we would like to verify the address we have on file. Please keep in mind, a physical address is necessary for delivery.

-Some more address related details-

So I live in Charlotte NC, does that mean I’ll get the decision today at my mailbox? (i’m still in school so i can’t find out yet)

International student here - I got the email. Does anyone know if scholarship decisions arrive by mail, or are we informed via e-mail?

@KM2021, Congratulations! Welcome to the Forest. Could you please help others by giving you info on the results only thread? Thanks.

Also got an email! Accepted! woohoo!

CONGRATS!!! you should post your stats in the stats only thread!

Hey did anyone write any funny stuff in their essay section? help the rest of us relieve some stress :slight_smile:

@TexasDA I took a risk in my supplement about the unsung historical figure… I wrote a rap about Tesla and the fact he isn’t as well known as Edison even though he should be! And my rap definitely rhymed the entire time and it started with “drops beat”… hope it gave the admission deans a good laugh! I’m actually super proud of it and thought it was really creative/funny!

@ilovelabs hahahaha. i wrote my unsung hero one about the dude who invented the Doritos locos taco. hopefully i didnt come off as super sarcastic lol

@texasDA haha wow! they do love to see creativity and that definitely is! guess we’ll find out next week

arent the letters suposed to be delivered in the next day or 2?

I was expecting mine to come on Monday, I don’t think my post office delivers on Sunday’s… Saturday is a possibility I guess but I’m kinda far

@TexasDA Mine wasn’t super funny, but I did my top ten on things I want to experience from most to least likely and then the last two were “look down on Earth from outer space” followed by “see Hamilton”

@velmah I did my top 10 on my favorite burger toppings. I was very hungry when i wrote that supplemental

I did my top 10 favorite youtube videos

@TexasDA I wrote my list on the ten worst samples I’ve ever had at Costco. It was easier to think of than the best samples :slight_smile:

For the ideal Wake 2021 commencement speaker I was gonna say abby lee miller but my college counselor advised against it, instead I chose Misty Copeland. For the top ten list I did ten questions to ask when getting to know someone. It’s not funny but I really like to ask people deep, interpersonal questions so I felt like it was a good topic. I also wrote about my anger towards diet culture, why I think more people should know about Grace Hopper and the book the Dovekeepers.
That wake app was such a force though.

I did my ten favorite places to travel and it also came up in my interview and for the book I wrote about Ketchup clouds(which you guys need to read

I did top ten educational pickup lines. I thought they would enjoy it.

@velmah I saw Hamilton two weeks before my Wake interview haha!
