For Your Information…

Curiosity can’t be contained in a Welcome Center, so we’ve brought insider knowledge of Wake Forest University (located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina) to this virtual space!

Dean of Admissions Karen Vargas and Assistant Dean of Admissions Thomas Ray – along with a host of administrators from throughout Wake Forest’s campus – are here with a veritable factstravaganza – to give you the answers you need about our 5,200-undergraduate, test-optional, liberal-arts school with an 11:1 student-faculty ratio, 45 majors and 60 minors, and 96%-or-higher employment and graduate-school placement rate.

With our new information-session video, we demystify our argot and our approach. We hope you’ll join us!

And just as importantly, we hope you’ll apply to Wake Forest no later than Monday, November 15, as we will fully consider all admissions applications received by then for merit-based scholarships.

You may apply Early Decision – for those who have fallen in love with Wake Forest as their first-choice school and want to commit – and you’ll hear back from us on a rolling basis.

OR you may apply Regular Decision. With Regular Decision, you’ll hear back from us by April 1!

But again, no matter the application type, please apply by November 15 to be considered for merit-based scholarships.

To learn even more about Wake Forest, if you haven’t already, I hope you’ll look into the above information-session video, our on-campus information sessions, and student-led campus tours.

Finally, please peruse our application, available now.

Warmest regards,

Eric Maguire, Vice-President for Enrollment, Wake Forest University
