Is there a facebook group for Wake students? I remember someone previously posting it. If so, would you mind to repost so I can join.

Not an admitted scholar but I am really into Wake.

admin review 1/22 to application complete 1/28

Bad sign? or is this normal?

I just went to Application Complete today as well. Previously I had been on admin review.


I think this means DR. Should hear something soon I'd imagine.

Specifically, I never got my status checker for wake so i dont know specifically about this

Generally, its normal, dont get your hope/anxiety up or down. at some schools i applied to it indicated that a decision was imminent, but at others it meant absolutely nothing.

Fixed. My schedule cleared up so I registered yesterday

Wake is becoming a serious contender, #2 on my list. It could easily become #1 depending on tomorrow.

See you guys tomorrow!

True. Waiting blows. I only applied to WF 12 days ago, but their beatdown of UNC got me all excited about possibly attending.

I'm really starting to like Wake, though a 2/3-Full Ride would sweeten the deal a lot. I'm anxious about them - checked my status checker 6 times today. MUST STOP!

Not much of a basketball fan, I see...

I hate UNC basketball. Big Tim Duncan and Chris Paul fan...

[ndirish2010]

I'm a Duke fan, but I like Wake well enough...I can even tolerate UNC. It's the Turtles that I can't stand.

I know it is hard, but I would refrain from checking the status checker. Wake sends everything out through email, so you will know when something is decided.

As others have alluded to, its a reference to Wake beating UNC (at Chapel Hill) I believe. I watched the game, and proclaimed to those I was watching with that if wake wins, they are jumping up my rankings of schools I would attend if admitted - only half-jokingly.

Im a Big Ten guy, but ACC basketball is 10x more exciting.

[84Sunbird2000]

ACC basketball is well and good, but if I had to choose between Wake and Illinois for basketball (err..I mean...law school), it'd be the Illini hands down.

If i had the choice like you will, I would chose the same. But I dont/wont. In-state tuition ftl.

Wake actually called me this morning to tell me that my file would be going complete today and that I would be hearing something, at the earliest today and at the latest tomorrow, I'm assuming that would be true for everybody who went to "application complete" today. I would imagine this is good news, because I don't believe the admissions office would take time out of their busy day to inform me a decision was coming if it was a bad one! Wake is definitely my top choice! BTW..I went to "Administrative Review" on 1/12. Hope this helps!

If only Dean Pless gave me as sweet an offer as Wake did!


Dean Pless I know you are reading this. Please make me a sweet offer

I am still in comittee review and my application status has not changed today. When you all call do you just ask them directly when you can expect a decision (in so many words)?

Just sort of ask them what the status of your file is, you'll truly be surprised at how sincere and helpful they are. I talked to a lady named Jenny and she was awesomeeee! She was like, "I am super busy, but I will drop everything until I find your file!" I was like wow, didn't expect that but sweet, I even felt a little guilty lol. Anyways, don't be the least bit sheepish about calling!

So....I called and basically got "the heisman". They just told me what I already knew (that my application was in Committee Review) and that I could probably expect a decision "within the next couple of weeks." I'm not giving up hope thoug. C'mon Wake!

[kbeth18]

so wait...i've seen people who have "application complete" and got in and other people saying their status checker went to "congratulations" when they were accepted

am i missing something or is this indeed what is happening? does it go application complete and then "congratulations"? orrr do people just get different status checkers? or something else?

super nervous..it seems they are handing decisions out on fridays and i just went into committee review so this post is pretty pointless for now

I wouldn't look to0 much in to it.. I never went to committee review (at least not thru my online status checker) and I got the complete and congratulations on the same day. I think they are not too on top of it with a system of "x" before "Y" before "acceptance" or whatever.

Today my status changed from "Administrative Review" to "Application Complete" but there's nothing that says "Congratulations." Is this a bad sign? Anyone know?

Everyone who has been accepted so far went though that point.

Expect an email later today or tomorrow by noon with a decision, and then the decision field will show up.
