WAKE FOREST FALL 2020 TRANSFER

Hi, everyone! I did not see a Wake Forest transfer 2020 forum so here it is! Please share below if you applied!

I did! Does anyone know how many sophomore and or junior transfers wake accepts?

@hmg1999 - FINALLY a response - it’s like NO one applied lol.
and from what i know from last year’s forum, a lot? im not even sure

It seems like it! Hopefully that means better chances :slight_smile: Did you already submit your application? I saw that they changed the deadline to April 15th!

I also applied! When do you all think they’ll start sending out decisions? I submitted mine in December and I’m so ready to know the answer. It feels like I’ve been waiting for forever!

i just submitted mine ROFL - i think im out of the running

What majors and class year did you all apply to? Just out of curiosity:) It’s nice to know I’m not alone in this process. I’m a rising junior majoring in Communications!

rising junior applied for business. not sure if it is popular there but its a great program i think :slight_smile: im still hurting from the 65 dollar fee cuz im low income and this is the first time i ever had to pay anything ;-;

Rising junior for business! What made you guys want to apply for junior year?

my stats are not that great so im not expecting much :neutral:

Yeah I’ve heard great things about the Business program! I wanted to transfer during my freshman year, but I decided to wait and see if it would get better with my involvement in sophomore year. I’m currently at a huge state school and have had trouble transitioning. I’m a legacy at Wake, but I wanted to try something different for college. Turns out it wasn’t for me! I could see my acceptance going either way, especially since you never know how many spots they have open.

@heyigotnoclue hey I’m back xD also waiting to hear from Wake Forest

I applied to the business program as a junior. They release decisions in May which is super late. Also, I looked at the common data set and they accept very very very few transfers so my hopes are really low. Looking to channel my energy into University of Richmond lol

@Lfriel - LOLLL looks like im everywhere and so r u. i applied cuz it seemed pretty cool but i havent submitted my CSS Profile cuz i cant afford it so that may be an issue. oh well

Wake forest accepts a lot of transfers though, at least thats what i heard but idk .

I heard that last year they released decisions on April 1st, but who knows what’ll happen with the extension. I’ve also heard different things about the numbers, there doesn’t seem to be any solid info on the acceptance rate!

I’ve heard both ways that Wake either accepts a lot of transfers or few! I feel like it also depends on sophomore vs junior transfers and the fact that many juniors at Wake already go abroad which could mean more space!

Decisions are out. DS got accepted to business school as a junior transfer. Surprised on the timing. Good luck everyone.

congrats!! when did you submit your app and where did you see your decision? is it on the status page?

It was a letter on the portal under the status update. Applied on February 8th.

i applied in december and haven’t heard anything, but hopefully it comes soon. congrats again!!
