Other “Here’s to Wake Forest” score

21 Upvotes

Hi all, Cal fan coming in peace. I’m an active participant in the Calgorithm on Twitter and one of my schticks is making hardware-accurate NES/Famicom 8 bit versions of our opponent’s fight song for the week. I emailed the band director a couple weeks ago but never heard back. Hoping a current or former Wake band member can help me out with the score including drum parts if you have them. I’d be happy to post the finished product along with a download link for it when I’m done with it. Thanks, and Go Bears, Go Deacs.

I have been attending Criminal Justice at UNC Charlotte, and I wish to transfer to WFU and attend WFU by next spring. Is it recommendable to transfer there even if I do not have a GPA yet? I am a first gen student and major in Sociology focused on Criminal Justice.

Question First Generation/Legacy

4 Upvotes

My whole family except for me was born in Ethiopia, and I’m a first generation student, but my sister graduated from Wake Forest in 2020, making Wake the first college that anyone in my family had ever attended. When I reviewed my commonapp, I was labeled as a WFU Legacy and also labeled as a FGen. Can this combination possibly be really good for me?

Discussion Surprise acceptances

I’m Ed to wake and was hoping to hear some acceptances from people who didn’t expect it. Maybe a slightly lower uw gpa (even if there are extenuating circumstances) or test scores? Just an acceptance that was a reach!

Discussion deferred

To anyone who was deferred tonight, do not feel like it is the end of the world, that was me a year ago today, and 7 months ago today I opened a letter saying I was waitlisted. Now I am writing this from my dorm at Wake feeling for those who got news they didn’t quite hope for.

Question Is it rlly cliquey at WF?

5 Upvotes

Sorry I know this is very broad, and can apply to EVERY school. But I seriously know nothing abt WF and am curious the kids are cliquey and uppity. Of course like I said there’s ALWAYS going to be those groups of people, but for some reason I’ve heard a lot of kids at WF are super out of touch. Lmk! I’d love to know more info on this school. Thank you

Proposal SPS people! Anyone going to Wake360?

Hey everyone! I’m a master’s student planning my stay for Wake360 weekend, and I was wondering if there might be another female student looking for accommodation as well. It could be nice to book something together and also explore the city outside of the event hours.
