A Waitlist Update

We’d like to update you about our waitlist:

The May 1 deadline for admitted students to enroll has now passed, and, while we celebrate those who have accepted our offers of admission, we also have some open seats that we would like to fill via our waitlist. Over the next few days, we will contact approximately 50 students to begin the conversation about joining the Wake Forest University Class of 2026. We know that many of you are eagerly awaiting to enroll with us, and you can rest assured you have done all that you can to advocate for yourself. While we can’t anticipate how many more students might be invited, we will monitor enrollment daily and offer admission as seats become available.

If you have not already, please simply make sure that the contact number we have for you is accurate. You can update this information on your admissions status portal. And if you have any individual questions about the waitlist process, don’t hesitate to be in touch with your regional dean. 

Thank you in advance for your patience – and, of course, for your continued interest in Wake Forest University!

Warmest regards,
Wake Forest University Office of Undergraduate Admissions
