The Story of You.

We went test-optional more than a decade ago, so we know options work. That’s why Wake Forest Admissions wants to give you even more. You know you best, so you’ll decide the best way to tell us the story of you.

This year’s application will offer you choices about how to communicate your personality, perspective, and academic passions, whether it be through conceptually provocative supplemental essay questions or a personal interview.

Our goal is to get to know you.

We look forward to making our application available in early August, the same time as the Common and Coalition Applications. The option to interview with us is only offered after you have applied.

You are comprised of many qualities, and we want you to have the chance to share as many of them as you can with us. We can’t wait to meet you.

And now, you may learn even more about us, as our campus has reopened to visitors! You will be required to wear a mask and socially distance. Stop by Porter Byrum Welcome Center (open Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m.-5:00 p.m.) to pick up a self-guided tour book. And student-led tours will begin in July, with details about registration available on our website by the beginning of June.

We look forward to welcoming you to our home!

Warmest regards,

Eric Maguire
