For the ASD reception, is it still a cap of one guest?
I thought ASD was really good - I have hard decisions!
Officially committed today! So excited for the fall
Has WF sent out decisions for today? If so, do they send it all at once or is it staggered? Kinda surprised it's taking this long

No longer a fan of Wake Forest after the most recent waitlist email. Just withdrew my application lol.

@SlippinJimmy: at least they were transparent
14:45
I think the only reason I was accepted is because I won three CFB National Championships in Retro Bowl with WFU.
Why would a school put that your status is available but make you wait.... horrible lol.
anyone get an decision from Wake
does anyone have the link to the discord? i can't find any links that aren't expired?
16:14
thanks!!
Current Wake undergrad here! DM if y'all wanna know more about Winston!
WTF is waitlist/rejected? They got an R email after waitlisted?

@LegallyAsianAmerican: yes- schools will usually WL people, then if way more commit than expected, they "release" you from the WL aka rejected

its to slim down the WL to a smaller pool since they anticipate only a small number of admits off the WL compared to other years
hey guys! confused because this year's wake forest app says that submitting an LSAT score isn't required. How are y'all navigating this? Thanks
14:15
where do you see that?
16:57
did this happen with anyone else?
16:58
^wrong chat
@KimberlyWexler: pretty sure that only applies if you have a gre score
speaking of Wake, a PS of only 750 words is crazy lmao
I'm going to have to write a whole separate statement for WF
Is there a GroupMe or chat for newly admitted students? Could someone send it in here?
