What's the campus like? I took the virtual tour but had a hard time understanding the campus layout and of course no sense of the "vibe".

34 ACT
FWIW My DC with lower scores (32 ACT) is applying RD and was told by their college counselor that they wouldn’t get in to WF unless applying ED. I suspect a 34 will be competitive for ED. Good luck!

How so if schools are going test optional? Do you think schools will look more for getting scores to keep their standardized test stats high?
Yes

I'd be interested to know if Wake is ever willing to make the trade, accept a student with low(ish) GPA and high test scores.

Actually, it’s more like $500k because you are paying in after tax dollars.

Great school. Rhodes Scholar last week. Grad schools and employers know its rigor.
