Wake Forest RD 2024

Waitlisted, honestly surprised as I was expecting outright rejection. 30 ACT and 4.8 Weighted AP/honors.

Son WL – RD, from Calif, no interview, 3.76/4.09wGPA/ 32 ACT, ASB officer 4 years, yearbook editor, varsity sports, lots of e.c. & comm service. He showed a lot of interest (cost us a lot to visit from Calif!). Oh well, he’s in at other schools that he loves, so probably not staying on the WL.

Accepted! RD, interviewed last summer, 32 ACT, 3.8 UW, competitive private HS, excellent recs & strong essays, very excited

Well, good news for anyone who is waitlisted, my daughter got in to WF but is declining her offer (we loved the school, but she got a full tuition offer elsewhere with similar rankings for her specific major and no aid from WF.) We are looking for guidance on HOW to decline the offer ASAP to open up that spot for someone who is waitlisted. Does anyone know if there’s a way to decline the offer via portal or do we have to wait for her packet to arrive via mail?

Under Forms on the portal, there’s a reply to offer of admissions. That might be what you’re looking for.

Do you guys know when the financial aid and scholarships come out?

The major merit-based full-ride scholarships have already come out (see the scholarship weekend thread). Not sure when financial aid will come out as I didn’t apply.

Anyone else not seeing an update in their Applicant Status Portal? Not sure where to look. Was an email sent out?

Confused. If you are wait listed or accepted and do not intend to go please let them know as soon as possible. There are a lot of hopeful wait listers. My D is one of them.

pandorasbox1, I was wondering the same thing. That is the only page that my d has a login to that I know of. If there is another “portal” page it would be nice to know.
