Wake Forest RD Class of 2023

accepted from NJ!
1440 SAT, 3.9 UW 4.2 W
Lots of ECs, interview, good supplements

Son did not get in and he is not upset. Honestly had lost interest over the course of this entire process. I think the more he learned about Wake, the less he saw himself attending. Not a knock on Wake exactly, just not a good fit for him and what he was looking for out of his college experience. Best of luck to all accepted at Wake or moving on to other great options!

@bballjones where are y’all from?

Accepted!!! from Southern Virginia.
Large envelope; gold with cartoon-like figures in black, white, and grey all over the envelope.
The word “congratulations” can be seen in address window.
GPA 3.96 Unweighted; ACT 30; 6 AP/Honors classes.
Varsity sports,clubs,etc.
was wait-listed ED1 and deffered to RD.
Congrats to all accepted!!!
To those who were not, remember, it is what you do throughout college and not where you go! Keep spirit up!!!

Has anyone received a rejection notice from Wake? Wondering if those went out later, my D didn’t receive anything.

Son Accepted

3.7 UW GPA 4.2 W
IB student
Played 4 Varsity Sports each year
Lots of EC’s pretty good essays
Visited 2 times, interviewed once but saw his rep at his campus before and after the interview

Only down side is he was nervous he wouldn’t get in so he sent in his deposit to UF but will change to Wake if they give him enough money. Can’t pass up UF since it will be almost free and is close to home.

@intapp23 I also live in the Netherlands and haven’t received anything yet. Just got an email saying there is a DHL document coming my way from someone at Wake Forest. Am hopeful, but might still be a rejection or waitlist. Best of luck to both of us!

Accepted!
Deferred ED 1, got the emails, and got the letter today in CT
ACT: 33
GPA: 4.5 W (out of 5.5)
SO happy!

@levelmonk Oh nice…crazy I didn’t think there would be another NL applicant on here! Good luck, hope good news is coming fast!

I just want to let people know that my d was deferred ED1 and did NOT receive that email and she was accepted today. So hang in there if you didn’t get email. It doesn’t mean your out!

Wait List

Visited twice. Strong essays. Still going to hold out hope!

Congrats! I am also in CT. Nothing comes today ?guess it means something

Nothing in TX… bad sign?

Has anyone gotten merit scholarships? I was hoping for one because I will not be able to afford it otherwise, but no one else has mentioned them. Does anyone know if they send scholarship info with the acceptance letters for recipients?

@mountainmama19 I applied by the 12/1 merit deadline and was accepted today. There is no mention of merit anywhere in my package, i’m assuming I didn’t get any?

Waitlisted, OR

@UGG2023 That’s what I was assuming. Doesn’t seem like anyone else got any either though, which is a little suspicious.

The mail has made it west of the Mississippi! Good news in Houston today.

waitlisted as expected due to no email

I was deferred ED1 and got the campus day email awhile back, but nothing came from wake today. Does that mean bad news? From SW Virginia. Does anyone know if acceptances are sent priority mail and others are not? Pretty nervous
