Hi! I got an invite to interview for an accounting masters here, does anyone know what they’ll be asking?

hey everyone! submitting my application in 1-2 days (EA) and wanted to ask if there's any really niche or stand-out info I can include in the 'why us' essay. I've done a lot of research on the school, and 150 words is already difficult to maintain as a word limit, but wanted to hear if there was maybe something special you guys included in your essays! (students at wfu)

When I was at the open house for Wake a few weeks ago, one of the admissions counselors said that there are two more notification dates: near Thanksgiving and near Christmas.

I applied on the 31st and the deadline is the 15th of November, will I hear back by Thanksgiving?

Do you think I can get into WFU? Its my top choice but I cant ED because of aid. Im really nervous because I got to a fairly small school but 2 people from my school are ed-ing, and 3 others are applying RD and some of them have better stats than me. Do you think I have any chance at all..?

Stats:

Psych Major

3.95uw, 4.25 w

34 ACT(not superscore)

5 aps, 6 honors

5 on AP Psych, 5 on AP Lang(only 2 aps i took before senior yr)

Decent ECs and Essays

(live in illinois, mid/high income, white, not first gen)

Hi All!

My little cousin just got into Wake Forest, and I was wondering if there was some cool niche gift I can get her? Like is there a local restaurant I can get a gift certificate to? Is there an essential piece of gear from the bookstore?

Any suggestions welcomed! I just didnt want to do a hoodie or beer mug if I could avoid it.

If I ed to wake but I am a first gen , will I still be considered for the  First in the Forest program if I don't early action?

How Is pre med as a wf student? I am really thinking about ed here but I want to make sure the support is great for the amount it will cost me to attend.

- How easy is it to gain lab experience as a first yr

- How is finding oppurtinites for clinal hours here

- How is the support in the stem classes

Hi! I’m interviewing soon for master program. What questions should I be ready for? Any tips on what to focus on or avoid? Thanks!

My daughter was deferred for ED yesterday....she's really bummed. Anyone have any experience with deferment and the likelihood of being accepted? Thanks in advance:)

What are these interviews everyone's talking about? Does everyone get the opportunity to do them? I'm applying EA and wanted to know.

I applied RD and just got an email saying they could not give me an interview because of how many students applied. Just confused because it’s October I don’t see how that many RD students applied. Should I take this as they don’t want me? I also got a text from a current student so I’m confuseddddd. If anyone that got denied an interview still got in please lmk bc I’m stressing

I was wondering if anyone has ever taken a CS course with professor Natalia Khuri? If so, what was your experience with her as a professor?

I’m interested in going to WFU and I’ve spoken to a rep about attending, but I’m somewhat hesitant because of things I’ve seen online about the school being predominantly white and affluent, both of which I am not. I don’t care about that specifically, but more so about student life while being queer and not white and how that can go.

I think Wake is a really awesome school in a lot of other regards, it’s just that that’s making me question.

Hey everyone, I am looking for someone to take over my lease. The apartment will be available starting in November, but I'm also open to someone moving in during December or January! It's at Crowne Park, which is near campus and has a shuttle line that can take you there. It’s 2 bed/2 bathrooms and $745 a month, and is clean, quiet, and spacious. We have a balcony and in-unit laundry, and the complex has free parking, a pool, and a small gym. My roommate (first year grad student at WFU) and her cat will be staying, so if you're looking for a roommate, this would be great for you! Message me if you are interested and I can send you more information and photos.

Hello!

I am trying to go to Wake (it’s my 1st choice) and debate there. I am finished with most of my application but I’m not sure what to make my list about.

I’m thinking about things I do outside of school, to show another side of myself that the rest of my essay simply doesn’t. It talks about school, my passions regarding school, my autism, but not what I do for fun.

I’m hoping to add a new layer to who I am to admissions, but I’m not sure if this is the best route.

which professor teaches Equity Investments. Fin 233 at WFU

What are some of the popular bars for college students in the area?

Hi! I’m a senior in high school and I recently applied ED to Wake. I checked off all of the things on the portal by Sep. 20, and then had my interview on Oct 3. Do you think I will hear back at the end of this month (Oct) or November? Also, does Wake put a large emphasis on your interest in the school when reviewing your app? I am worried about my GPA. It is definitely not high enough to get in (4.0 W) but i have shown a lot of interest in the school (touring, summer program) and have strong rigor & extracurriculars. so hopefully that helps.

Thanks in advance!

What is the culture really like?

I applied about a month ago and it says on common app that everything is submitted including my recommendations n shit and I just checked the portal and it says a big red x ❌ for teacher recommendation, transcript, and ED agreement although I know that I submitted the ED agreement. Am I good? I think that all that shit is included in the common app

Do you feel there are more opportunities in the Midwest for awake grads or are they pretty dispersed all over?

Heard that they now do a drop every month of decisions. Is that right and if so when has it been historically ie last day of month etc? Thanks!

Hey guys, so I'm thinking of applying to wake forest. Im going in for biochemistry or chemistry. I have a GPA of 3.9 (unweighted) and 4.8 (weighted) and a SAT score of 1150 (I know, it sucks.) I've heard that they don't care about your stats, they like unique people who nail their interview. If that's the case, what questions do they ask? What should I write my personal essay about?

Looking to get out of current situation, what our some good apartment complexes that are on the cheaper side near wake?

Are there backs on all the bleacher seats or just certain sections?

Hey everyone, I wanted to get your thoughts on something that happened recently. I'm an Asian female international student at WFU, and in one of my classes, I usually sit next to a white American girl. At first, everything seemed fine, but recently the vibe has changed, and I can feel her being dismissive towards me. I know my spoken English isn't at a native level, but my communication is clear and I’ve had no issues connecting with other American students.

What makes me uncomfortable is that during class discussions, she often stays silent or gives me this dismissive look whenever I try to engage in conversation. It's like she's intentionally shutting me down. This week, she even went as far as moving to sit with a group of American students during discussion time, completely avoiding me. To me, this feels like silent discrimination against international students — no outright words, but her actions spoke loudly, showing no consideration for how it might affect me.

I don't believe I deserve to be treated with this level of disrespect just because I’m an international student. It’s upsetting because I thought WFU, a university that prides itself on equality, diversity, and respect, would foster a more inclusive environment.

I’m also worried that if this continues unchecked, other international students might experience similar treatment. Do you think I should report this to the school or a relevant department? I don't want others to go through what I’m experiencing. Would appreciate any advice.

Update: And can people stop twisting the issue? Does someone have to be liked in order to be treated decently? What kind of twisted logic is that? I don't like this girl, but I would never treat her the way she treats me—completely ignoring a classmate sitting right next to her. Stop trying to pin things on me with false accusations.

Senior in HS and loved wake and everything but just like at any school, I’ve heard abt hazing. Bc Greek is the dominant social activity there, I want to know how intense the hazing is and if there are some worse than others.

I am applying to study abroad and was wondering if the Barcelona program was as good as the Salamanca one. I am applying to both but feel i have more a chance with the Barcelona program. Thanks!
