Meet the cast of your next four years.
New Student Receptions
This summer, a series of receptions for new students and their families (Class of 2025) will be held virtually and in person across the country in July and August. Two virtual receptions will be offered on June 22 and July 14. These programs are not geographically-specific and will provide a glimpse into life at Wake Forest, some top tips for transitioning to college, registering for classes, approaching residential living, and Q&A with a panel of current students.
We hope that every incoming family will join us at one of the virtual options (June 22 or July 14), and that you’ll also register for a local Reception should one be offered in your area. Details, dates, and registration information can be found on this page starting in May 2021. You will also receive an email invitation for both the general receptions and local offerings as details are confirmed. Please contact parents@nullwfu.edu with questions.
