International Chat
If you’re a student from outside the United States, please consider joining us to discuss any questions you might have with Mame Mor Ndiaye, our Associate Dean of Admissions who works specifically with international applicants.
This session is not a structured presentation. Instead, we’re hoping that you will come ready to engage with the Office of Admissions to learn more about Wake Forest from an international perspective. If you have specific questions about transitioning to Wake Forest from living abroad, this is the space to find answers.
Each session will last approximately 45 minutes.
