[li] How were your essays? Rate out of 10: 9 for Common App essay. For the supplements, I’d say a 7 or so. I feel as though they weren’t witty enough or creative like many of the accepted students.[/li]

[/ul]General Comments/Additional Information:[list]
I tried so hard 
but I always knew it was a reach. I did the best I could, and that’s all anyone can really do. Congratulations to all the accepted students! You all deserve it 
and for the denied students like myself, don’t worry. Everything happens for a reason, and we are going to love wherever we end up next year. Even if it’s not Wake Forest, it’ll still be an amazing place that we wouldn’t want to trade for any other school. Stay optimistic
Accepted here in Rhode Island- SAT 2240.
Accepted from FL! 28 ACT, 4.2 WGPA (3.99 UW). My interview went really well, so I think that helped a lot
DS accepted in PA. 3.4 GPA (UW), SAT optional. Had a great interview and a strong essay. His short answers were definitely not typical responses and I think all those things were in his favor. Definitely his reach school.
Waitlisted and sad as this was a top choice school.
3.9 UW GPA/ 4.6 weighted - Top 5%
34 ACT
Multiple Major Awards (Both Sports & Academic)
Varsity Sports & Tri Captain
Lots of EC with leadership roles
Distinct Volunteer throughout all 4 years
Amazing Recommendations
Perhaps not enough demonstrated interest?
What do acceptance vs rejection vs waitlist letters look the same? All white envelopes or are they different?
Acceptance was a large black envelope. We could see “congratulatioms, welcome to…” through the envelope address window, so not a suprise to open it.
