A Waitlist Update

In anticipation of our approaching May 1 deadline, we decided to begin extending offers of admission to students on our active waitlist. We look forward to welcoming these students to our campus in a few short months!

While we have reached out to our initial wave of waitlisted applicants, we will continue to monitor enrollment and consider those on our active waitlist for admission. We hope that you have taken a moment to connect with your admissions representative and submitted to us any updated grades for coursework in your senior year. Already emailed your admissions rep? Then you’re all set! We have everything we need to consider you for the next round of offers. We understand that many of you are eager to hear from us, and you can rest assured that you have done all that you can to advocate for yourself if you have completed those aforementioned steps. 

A quick heads-up for those of you joining our community from the waitlist: we’re currently upgrading one of our first-year halls to make it even better for the future! As a result, you might find yourself in a single room in one of our buildings for upper-level students. 

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
