Wake Forest University REGULAR DECISION Class of 2020

5% more applications equals 5% more rejections/waitlists. They had no plans to increase the size of the enrolled freshmen class.

@darkhound173

Apparently it won’t work here bc WF uses USPS, not UPS.

@HRSMom I get USPS notifications. You sign up through USPS.

I have signed up for USPS but I can’t find the tracking function like on UPS, assuming it exists

Would we even know? Perhaps it is just 1st class mail. I’m not sure you get notified by USPS for that? @Chopinspiano do you?

@HRSMom so far I’ve gotten priority mail. I’m not sure about first class since I haven’t gotten any recently.

ugh even BC stopped doing the mail thing. I feel like its just WF and GU at this point haha

Ridiculous how antiquated it is.

Do they not notify you online/by email?

Sister who goes to Wake said according to their snapstory… letters will be mailed out tomorrow!

update: Yup, she showed me a picture of all of them in the USPS bins!

@Hero45 is right. Wake’s snapstory indicates decisions will be mailed tomorrow!

OMG MAILED OUT TMR!!! WHOOOOOOO

so all decisions, good and bad, are mailed correct?

@lolafinkle correct.

The snap story says “over 3500 black envelopes of happiness.” The blog says almost 14,000 applications. So by that logic over 3500/almost 14,000 = greater than or equal to 25% acceptance rate. Except that 14,000 includes early decision applications. Last year there were 1220 early apps, so, assuming 5% increase, there were around 1280 early apps. 14,000-1280=12,720 rd apps. Over 3500/12,720 = greater than or equal to 27.5% rd acceptance rate.

Also worth noting: last year there were 3,371 regular decision acceptances. So they actually did increase the number of regular decision acceptances, by at least 3500/3371= 3.8%, or at least 129 acceptances.

We live in Europe and my d received an email tonight saying the decision had been sent ……they email out of US students so that they know to track mail due to possible problems with international mail etc…so looks like the info is correct US admissions offer should go out tomorrow

Im so happy!!! How long will USPS take for me if I’m from NE? Last college letter i got from south took 2 days. hoping its the same

im thinking we’ll all find out by friday or saturday!

Silly question but if Wake Forest added you back on snapchat does that mean you got in lol?

haha no @soccer88matt they added me back in like November before I even submitted my application

The Wake Forest snaphats confirmed that decisions are being mailed tomorrow so now it’s just a waiting game folks!
