<p>One reason Wake and Bucknell seem very similar is that the same architect designed both campuses! We were told that at the Wake revisit day D attended 4 years ago when she was making the same choice between schools. She graduates from Wake in 3 weeks.</p>
<p>Agree with rockvillemom’s assessment – Wake is not known at all for engineering, and FA sounds like a key decision point. The “Work Forest” and “southern feel” topics have been covered in several previous threads here; you can do a search.</p>
<p>For D the decision ended up being obvious after she made a list of all the positives, for her, of WFU compared to Bucknell, and vice versa.</p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
