Is this the email that reads, "All materials needed for your application have been received and your file is now complete."?
I thought you were all in on VCU?Dear Wake Forest:
:O Sassy
Not really, just inquiring.
Yes. Guess they do it all in big batches - I got that email today too, but didn't have all my materials in until 9/22.
Maybe this activity means they'll also be sending some II's soon
OK just checking. I got this back in August. Radio silence since.....
Quite the opposite but this isn't an appropriate topic for this thread.

Hey guys,
How long will wake forest take to review my app? I know it's still early, because I am currently my 5th week for WFU? Does it take 2 or 3 months for them?

So decisions go out today.... Anyone know how they notify us??
Judging from last year's thread, looks like emails go out about decisions today at around 11:30-12ish, possibly later. Goodluck to everybody waiting to hear!! I'll just be sitting over here totally focusing on work and definitely not stressing about a decision.....
I have not heard anything from Wake since they confirmed my application on 8/18.... so you're not alone.
I was complete late July or early August and I also haven't heard anything
ACCEPTED!! So excited! Makes it worth it after a rough cycle last year 🙂🙂🙂
Congrats a million times over!! Did you get an email?
Thank you!! Yes I did they send you an email with an attachment that you have to open

Serious question guys: Is it too early post waitlist to send a letter of interest? I also have an update so I was planning to combine them. Would I seem crazy if I sent it this weekend? I really fell hard for this school on interview day.

Waitlisted.
Bummer. I would also ask you to please avoid shortcuts back home. Your day could end up getting worse.

This may be a very silly question, but for those accepted - how do we notify "in writing" to hold our spot in the class? Does this mean email, or snail-mail letter? I tried calling the Ad Office, but the lines were busy each time and I'd like to let them know sooner rather than later. I remember writing this down on interview day ... but of course now I can't find those notes. Thanks guys, BIG CONGRATS to those accepted, and DON'T GIVE UP to those waitlisted/waiting for II!
I was also wondering this. Is there any immediate action we need to take to keep our applications "active"? WF is also a top choice of mine!
At the interview, they seemed very open to receiving letters of interest. The admissions counselor suggested a letter of interest every 3 weeks after our decision to show commitment. I think she even said they expect a letter within five days after a waitlist decision unless you are waiting for a more significant update.
Do you think that it would be good to send letter of interest pre-interview invite?
No, not a good idea. You've already stated interest by applying and sending in your secondary.
Actually I have heard multiple times of people calling in requesting status of their application and were given interviews over the phone due to shown interest. Its been talked about in previous threads as well. Wake Forest is huge on interest.
Wait what...
Yeah, I read that same thing on previous threads! I guess the worst thing that could happen would be to call and they just don't mark down that you had interest and the call goes unnoticed; I do not believe calling to express interest can delineate the review process, probably would help if anything. Thanks for your comments. 🙂

I think I'll try that. As it seems that I've got the hold status according to last years thread.
I just sent you a personal message mheard92.
What is the hold status?
Apparently if it says that "applications are reviewed continuously throughout the season" you are on hold.
