| It's a safety school for aspiring Duke and Vanderbilt students. Good school with a solid regional reputation. A step above a Davidson. |

It probably has one of the nicest campuses/dorms/facilities we saw on the east coast. We felt there was a lack of diversity and the tour guide's answer to "what would you change about Wake Forest if you could" was that he wishes the social life didn't revolve around Greek life.

I graduated from Wake in '06. The study abroad program is phenomenal (the school owns properties in Vienna, Venice and London, and many other programs are accepted as well).
Most of the classes are very small and I had some truly brilliant professors. There are a lot of very preppy kids but I found my (non-preppy) niche in the music department. When I was there, it was 50% Greek. |

| I just can't get excited about Wake Forest. Blah town, mid-tier reputation, and no specific programs of note. |
