Wake Forest Class of 2025 — Regular Decision

Unlike most schools, Wake uses snail mail. So decision may come out today or next week and will be mailed. Everyone will get them at different times and days. (I think international students get them in the portal). It adds to the waiting but it’s a great feeling to see that wonderful big envelope in your mailbox.

Good luck everyone!

They posted on Instagram that decisions will be made at the end of March and you will get an email to check your portal.

Anyone know historically what days they’ve released it on (not like it means much for this year)

It really comes via snail mail? How did I not know this? Given our recent mail delivery, it may come mid-April!

Wake doesn’t do that anymore. The portal will be updated when decisions are made. They stopped the snail mail-only thing at least a year ago, maybe two.

Thanks!

I really hope decisions come today! I hate waiting ahhhh!!!

It looks like last year they came out March 20th and the year before they came out March 26th.

The day of the week was different but they were both at the end of March and they were both before Ivy Day/Dooms Day

I say all this to say, we’re left right back where we started bc ivy day is in April this year and nobody is telling us what’s going on

Wake told us “what is going on”. They confirmed on Instagram that decisions will be on the portals sometime between next Mon and Wed.

Should we presume that if a student is awarded a scholarship that they will be notified along with their admissions offer?

@rickle1 They stopped mailing out decisions last year. Whether that was a decision made because of the pandemic or the result of a change in leadership in the admissions office is anybody’s guess. The lack of transparency and communication has been stunning.

I wouldn’t be surprised if decisions are announced this afternoon.

Merit-based and talent-based scholarship selections are made in March. The Office of Merit-Based Scholarships notifies selected recipients in early April.

They posted on IG the decisions will be 3/28-3/31. My son has only gotten one email from them concerning studying abroad since applying RD first week in November. This has been a very long wait. I guess they just don’t do much marketing.

It had better be in the portal! We will be in the Wake Forest area next week & will have no access to our mail. Eek. Snail mail seems so archaic anyway. Bring on the digital confetti! Lol Good luck to everyone!

The only thing snail mail is the package you get after you have accepted.

last year didnt the snail mail packages arrive before the portal notification (by accident)? or am i thinking of the wrong school

Sounds like they changed last yr. My mistake.
