<p>My son is starting to lean towards Wake Forest. For those of you who've selected Wake as their first choice - can you share with us your major reasons why you're excited about going to Wake Forest?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Wake was my first choice for a number of reasons. I love the fact that it has a relatively small number of undergraduates with small class sizes. At the same time, it is home to some awesome athletics that are most prevelent at large state universities. You also can't argue that the campus is gorgeous with nice weather. I am particularly interested in health and exercise science which is known to be a strong program here. The study abroad program is great here as well which is something I would definitely want to pursue. The best way to tell if Wake is right for you is to visit and get a feel for it. When I went, it felt right to me. Hope this helps.</p>
