About that calendar – Use a pencil , not a pen.
As you read through Forestry 101, you’ll notice that the summer before you start classes and your frst weeks in the Forest have lots of “key dates” and deadlines. We have taken a great deal of care to plan a smooth introduction to Wake Forest for the Class of 2026, but we expect that there may be institutional changes that could impact the New Student calendar. The dates in Forestry 101 were accurate at the time this book was produced. But if plans change throughout the summer, details, dates and deadlines will shift as well. It’s important that you consult the New Student website and your WFU email regularly for the most updated information.
It’s new, it's exciting and it starts right now! It's OK to be nervous, but never forget to enjoy every minute of it. • You’ve arrived. Slap on the bumper sticker. Wear the T-shirt. Lose yourself in school spirit. You might not know them yet, but you’re among friends. • SO GET YOUR DEAC ON.

Welcome to wake forest.
We ’re glad you could make it.
Within this book, you’ll fnd everything you could possibly need to survive in the Forest. Food, shelter, maps, general wisdom and the laws of the land. All conveniently located in the following pages. So make yourself comfortable and take a look around. You can graduate, but you never have to leave.

This isn’t supposed to be easy. Nothing worthwhile ever is. This experience that everyone has told you will be the time of your life can be pretty uncomfortable at times. You are joining a new community, living with strangers and wrestling with high-level academics. The highs and lows of college are real, and opportunity awaits in how you choose to handle both. Use the resources on campus (we will talk about those throughout this book!), seek help when you need it and push yourself past the limits of your comfort zone. No one succeeds on their own. Regardless of how it ma y look or feel, you are not alone — in your struggles or achievements. Be relentless, genuine and unapologetic in pursuit of your growth. It’s why you’re here.
9
If you miss the life you had before college, you’re not doing something wrong. It means
you’re human. When change threatens the familiarity of routines and relationships you spent years building, it’s only natural to want your normal back. It will take time to build a new network here, and that timetable is diferent for everyone. For a lucky few, it’s friendship at frst sight with a new roommate. For many others, that’s simply not the case. It takes patience and more than a little bravery to fnd your place and your people.
For maybe the first time ever, you are in charge. You can choose to hit the books, sleep till noon, eat whenever and whatever, head downtown, drive to the mountains, hang out alone in your room or party all night with friends. Increased personal freedom and responsibility are a big part of college. And a lot of what you learn will come from experiences outside the classroom. Embrace it. But choose what you do wisely. Rules can be a good thing when you come up with them yourself. And remember — you’re on your own, but you’re not alone. We are here to help, but it's on you to make it happen!
11
Managing your time can be a challenge. College won’t be as structured as high school, and freedom overload can get the best of even the most organized student. You’ll be juggling tough class assignments and countless opportunities to avoid them. Plus, there’s laundry. It’s a balancing act, and all the new responsibilities can be overwhelming. So take a deep breath, and ask for help when you need it. With a little trial and error, you’ll fnd a formula that works for you.

PROJECT WAKE
Adapt/Connect/Grow
Wake Forest has a long tradition of engaging in a summer academic project on an issue of intellectual and social importance. The tradition includes setting aside time during New Deac Week for students to engage with a faculty or staf member on this issue. It is a favorite New Deac Week activity. For 2022, the Project Wake theme is ADAPT/CONNECT/GROW.
Recent years have taught us that the unexpected can strike fast and profoundly transform our lives. Out of the unexpected, there may be some invitation to consider how to face challenges and embrace opportunities, and indeed come out having been transformed for the better. Our tripartite theme: adapt/connect/grow positions the idea that our experiences as members of the Wake Forest community are on a continuum; we adapt in order to connect, we connect in order to grow and we grow by adapting to change. As a participant in Project Wake 2022, you will join your peers in thinking about the challenges and opportunities of the remarkable times in which we live, and how your unique background equips you to meet those challenges. In June, you will fnd a list of the 2022 Project Wake summer reading options at go.wfu.edu/projectwake. Explore the themes of adapt/connect/grow across a wide range of subjects, genres, and disciplines. These conversations have proven to be an exciting and meaningful way to make new friends, and discuss issues that matter. interesting to you.

Life in the Forest 41
First-Year Student Housing During your frst year, you will typically live in one of our communities on South Campus. Students are assigned to the various communities at random. As such, students are not asked or able to indicate preferences. Firstyear roommates are assigned by the Ofce of Residence Life and Housing based upon a number of factors that indicate compatibility. This roommate pairing process is refective of the University’s commitment to helping incoming students get to know individuals diferent than themselves. As a continuing student, you will be able to select your community and choose your own roommate(s).
Room Types As a new student, you will have a room assigned based on your responses to the Housing Application. New students may be assigned to a single or double room based on their preferences and availability. Note that students assigned to single rooms are charged at the single rate.
Room Amenities Each residence hall room includes an extralong twin bed (36" by 80"), a dresser, a desk and a desk chair. All rooms have window blinds and a closet or wardrobe unit. You may bring your own foor rug or purchase it upon your arrival to campus. Because each space varies, sometimes greatly, we encourage you to wait until you arrive on campus and see your exact space before purchasing items. By coordinating with your roommate(s) on these items, you will avoid purchasing duplicates. Each room also has a MicroFridge® appliance (combination microwave/refrigerator-freezer unit), so there is no need to buy or rent a refrigerator. The microwave has a capacity of 0.7 cubic feet and a turntable for even heating. Approved small appliances may be used or stored in residence hall rooms. Please see our 42 Life Life in the Forest
Guide to Community Living at go.wfu.edu/gtcl for details. Residents in each residence hall have access to community kitchens featuring full-size appliances.
Deacon OneCard The Deacon OneCard is your ofcial student ID. You will receive your card when you arrive on campus for New Deac Week, and you should carry it with you at all times. The Deacon OneCard serves as your access card to enter University buildings, your card for checking items out of the library and your “ticket” to many campus events. The Deacon OneCard is also a payment card for three diferent purposes: Deacon Dollars, FoodDollars and your meal plan. You must submit a photograph for your Deacon OneCard by June 6.
Faculty Fellows Faculty Fellows are a group of faculty members assigned to your residence hall who will plan community-building events and be available for informal interaction and advising. The Faculty Fellows Program was created to build community and increase facultystudent engagement, especially outside of the classroom, providing engaging discussions and activities within and beyond our residence halls.
Who’s Who? Resident Advisers (RAs) Undergraduate student leaders responsible for building community and connecting students, RAs plan initiatives not only for their smaller communities but also for the overall residential community they serve. Our South Campus communities have between seven and 11 RAs, based on the community. Look for a welcome email from your RA in August!
Life in the Forest 43
Graduate Hall Director (GHD) A live-in graduate student who assists professional and student staff in the general management of a residential community, which houses 200-300 undergraduate students. Graduate Hall Directors focus on the staff and student development needs of the community they are assigned to. Community Director (CD) A full-time, master’s-level, live-in professional who manages a residential community and supervises RAs and GHDs. CDs work with their staf to foster inclusive community through co-curricular initiatives, mentorship and faculty engagement. Additionally, CDs work to ensure that students understand and abide by University policy and provide general assistance to students with residential concerns.
Residence Hall Association The Residence Hall Association (RHA) provides a student voice to the University and the Ofce of Residence Life and Housing. The organization serves the residential student body in three primary ways: making studentrequested improvements to residence halls, advocating for the residential experience, and building community for the Wake Forest residential student body. It is a unique group of students that work together to improve the residential aspects of student life. For more information or to get involved with the Residence Hall Association, contact your Community Director or Graduate Hall Director.
Disability-Related Housing or Dining Accommodations Wake Forest University views living on campus as integral to a liberal arts education and the Wake Forest experience. As such, the
44 Life in the Forest
University has a six-semester (three-year) residency requirement. In support of students with disabilities, the Ofce of Residence Life and Housing has a wide variety of housing and dining options on campus that can accommodate the vast majority of disability needs. Students who would like to request a disability-related accommodation should visit go.wfu.edu/f101accommodations.
Insurance
Gender-Inclusive Housing
Additionally, the University does not cover property loss for damage due to facility incidents that may occur. Before coming to campus, you should determine what it would cost to replace belongings such as clothing, electronics — including cellphone, television and laptop — linens, etc.
We are excited to ofer gender-inclusive housing options for any interested students. Students who select gender-inclusive housing will live in mixed-gender rooms/suites. For incoming students, these rooms/suites will be clustered together in an area of a residence hall. Rooms may share private and/ or semiprivate bathrooms. As a part of this process, students are asked to complete an interest section on the Housing Application. Students who request gender-inclusive housing will then be contacted by staf from the Ofce of Residence Life and Housing to discuss the best way to accommodate their housing needs. During the process, no student will be asked to disclose their sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression.
Residency Requirement Wake Forest has a six-semester (three-year) residency requirement and is also committed to housing students who request to live on-campus after fulflling the residency requirement. Students are required to live in campus housing their frst three years unless they live with a parent or guardian in the Winston-Salem area and should not sign a lease for any of-campus property before fulflling this requirement or being released in writing by our ofce.
Wake Forest University (which includes the Ofce of Residence Life and Housing) does not assume responsibility for theft, loss or damage to your personal property. Most thefts occur when residents leave their room doors unlocked and/or their property unattended. Keeping your room locked at all times is your best defense against theft.
As part of the housing application process, you will have the opportunity to purchase renter’s insurance from a partner vendor, GradGuard. Additionally, you may wish to check your family’s homeowners insurance policies. Many policies will cover loss or theft even if the policy is in your parents’ names and you are living on campus.
Do you have more questions? Visit our incoming students page at go.wfu.edu/f101housing. If you have additional questions or your question is not answered, please contact us at housing@wfu.edu or 336.758.5185.

How are roommates matched? Our assignment software matches roommates based on answers to a number of questions. Room and roommate assignments are made without regard to race, religion, sexual orientation or national origin, and we do not assign siblings or friends as roommates. Historically, we have had a low percentage of room change requests from frst-year students.

What are the advantages of living on campus? Aside from the short commute to class every morning, living in Wake Forest’s residence halls has many advantages and places you in the center of the collegiate experience. In addition to having access to a variety of spaces and programs, you will be surrounded by a trained staf of helpful and caring individuals. The staf work consistently to answer questions, provide support and foster secure, comfortable, inclusive and engaging learning communities.

Sustainability in Dining Our eforts to promote a more sustainable food system include the following: • Prioritizing foods and beverages that are fresh and in season, organically certifed, humanely raised and handled, fair-trade certifed and/or approved by the Monterey Bay Aquarium whenever possible. • Creating delicious menus that optimize the nutrition of fruits, vegetables and grains for fully vegan, vegetarian or plant-forward options that include animal proteins. Shifting to a more plant-based way of eating helps reduce freshwater withdrawals and greenhouse gas emissions and is a win-win for both our personal health and the environment. • Collecting prep waste in The Pit, cofee grounds at Starbucks, Camino, and Campus Grounds, and all food waste in North Dining for composting. For more information on Wake Forest University’s commitment to sustainability, please visit sustainability.wfu.edu.
Reducing Food Waste with Campus Kitchen Campus Kitchen and Wake Forest Dining partner to tackle food waste and hunger. Food that is prepared but never served is repurposed into 300 regular meals per week for foodinsecure individuals and families. Produce from the Campus Garden complements the repurposed food, so volunteers can make fresh meals from scratch in the Campus Kitchen.

ACADEMIC ADVISING
A tour guide to your future
As expressed in the University’s Statement of Purpose, Wake Forest dedicates itself to fostering “habits of mind that ask ‘why,’ that evaluate evidence, that are open to new ideas, that attempt to understand and appreciate the perspectives of others, that accept complexity and grapple with it, that admit error and that pursue truth.” Advising at Wake Forest refects this vision and aspires to encourage students on a personal journey — one in which courses chosen and decisions made both inside and outside of the classroom are intentional and refect exploration, open-mindedness, creativity, appropriate risk-taking and willingness to learn from challenges.

Steps
to
Complete
1. Complete the Directed Self-Placement (DSP). Due June 6 (available May 30).
2. Report incoming Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate scores.
The Directed Self-Placement (DSP) helps you make an informed decision about which writing-intensive course (WRI 105, WRI 111, WRI 210 or WRI 212) you should take, or whether you should take FYS during your frst semester. The DSP simulates a typical college writing assignment, in that you will have one week to read an article and write a response to a specifc task related to that article. You will then answer questions designed to help you refect on this writing experience as well as your previous reading and writing experiences. Based on your responses to these questions and instructions provided, you will indicate your preferred writing-intensive course.
If you think your academic past can be part of your Wake Forest future, we want to hear all about it.
The DSP faculty coordinator will receive your writing and the answers to the refective questions. Although you will not receive direct feedback on your writing, the DSP faculty coordinator will email you feedback to guide your course selection prior to registration. In most cases, the DSP faculty coordinator will afrm your choice. Occasionally, we may recommend another course, but ultimately the choice is yours. The professor of your frst writing course will also receive your DSP materials. That professor will not grade your DSP essay, but they may use it in writing assignments and refections on writing development in your writing course. For instructions, more information and course descriptions for all writing-intensive course options, see go.wfu.edu/f101dsp.
112 The The All-You-Can-Learn Buffet of Knowledge
AP/IB credit is reviewed and awarded by the Office of the University Registrar. Some of these credits will serve as a prerequisite for higher-level courses. AP/IB credit cannot be used to satisfy divisional requirements. However, credits earned through AP/IB will count toward the 120 hours necessary to graduate. Instructions for submitting scores are below. Students often forget to send scores from previous years; log in to your College Board profile to make sure all your scores are sent to Wake Forest. For tests taken in 2022: If you indicated that Wake Forest should receive your scores when you took the test(s), no action is needed. If you did not indicate Wake Forest as a college to receive your scores when you took the 2022 test(s), you will need to log in to your College Board profile when you receive an email (in early July) with your 2022 test scores.
Prior
to
Registration
3. Complete Foreign Language Placement (FLP) Test. Due July 2 (available May 6).
When registering for your foreign language:
You must complete the FLP test if you have studied any of the following languages: Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Latin, Russian or Spanish. The tests can be found on the Ofce of Academic Advising (OAA) website at go.wfu.edu/fpt. Each test will take between 1 and 1.5 hours to complete. You should take the FLP test for any language(s) studied in high school, even if you intend to start the study of a new language (in case you change your mind in the future).
If starting a new language, start at the level 101 or 111.
If you know you scored 3 or higher on an AP language exam or 6 or higher on an IB foreign language higher-level test, you do not need to take the FLP test because your foreign language placement will be based on your AP/ IB score. (See Step 2 for instructions on how to report your ofcial AP/IB scores.) If it is after June 30 and your AP/IB scores have not been applied to your academic record or you do not know the results of your AP/IB scores, complete the FLP test. Your placement will be adjusted if a late-arriving AP/IB score indicates a diferent placement. If English is your second language, do not take the FLP test in your native language. You might be exempt from the foreign language requirement. Contact the Ofce of the Dean of the College about processing a foreign language requirement exemption. For further instructions, information on exemptions and other frequently asked questions, please see go.wfu.edu/fpt.
If continuing with a language you previously studied, enroll in the class in which you are placed through the FLP test or AP/IB score. If you believe your placement score is inaccurate, register as directed by your score, but discuss your concerns with your foreign language professor once you arrive on campus. Students will not receive credit for a class at a lower level than the level of their placement without following the procedure outlined in the Undergraduate Bulletin under “Foreign Language Placements.” 4. Complete Guided Preregistration Survey (GPS). Due July 13 (available May 27). You should begin the GPS when you receive it. It will help you 1). prepare for June Advising, 2). complete course selection for the fall semester, 3). explore more intentionally your academic plans and goals, and 4). help your lower-division adviser get to know you better. You may submit the GPS anytime between May 27 and 11:59 P.M. EDT on July 13. Regardless of when you submit your GPS, review your answers carefully since you will not be able to make changes to the GPS once submitted. The GPS will help your lowerdivision adviser advise you more efectively by apprising them of your interests, concerns, and academic plans.
The All-You-Can-Learn Buffet of Knowledge 113
What’s a typical schedule? Consult with your adviser for your specific needs, but a typical firstsemester schedule is 12-15 credits and includes: 1. FYS or WRI 111 (but not both in the same semester) 2. Foreign language
3. Divisional requirement (in a subject you like or are good at, or is a prerequisite for a potential major)*
4. Divisional requirement (in a subject you like or are good at, or is a prerequisite for a potential major)* 5. Bonus class(es) — this could be another divisional, an elective, or a combination of 1- & 1.5-credit classes such as HES 100, LIB 100, EDU 120 *Pre-business majors and students interested in health careers should see the Pre-Professional Advising website.

The All-You-Can-Learn Buffet of Knowledge
Advising for Pre-Professional Interests Interested in a career in health? Careers in the health professions (e.g., medicine, dentistry, veterinary, physician’s assistant, physical therapy, nursing) do not require a particular major, but they do require planning in order to complete requirements and take advantage of additional learning opportunities such as study abroad. Most prehealth students will take one or two science classes in the frst semester. For important information about course recommendations based on your AP/IB experience and projected major, see college.wfu.edu/prehealth. Interested in law school? There are no specifc requirements for students interested in attending law school. You are encouraged to take courses that develop your skills and interests, challenge you to think critically and creatively, and prepare you to read, write and communicate well. For more information, see college.wfu. edu/prelaw. Interested in the School of Business? Admission to the School of Business undergraduate program is by formal application in January of the sophomore year, and applicants are screened by the School’s Committee on Admissions, Continuation and Scholarships. The number of students that can be accommodated is limited, and meeting the minimum requirements is not a guarantee of admission. The School of Business, therefore, reserves the right to grant or deny admission or readmission to any student even though they meet the minimum requirements. For more details about admission requirements, see the 2022-23 Undergraduate Bulletin: bulletin.wfu.edu.
Interested in investment banking, asset management, sales and trading, and private equity? The Pre-Wall Street Career Track will provide early and focused professional preparation for qualifed Wake Forest students intending to pursue careers in investment banking, asset management, sales and trading, and private equity on a global basis. Please visit prewallstreetcareertrack.wfu.edu for more information.
Advanced Placement Scores Wake Forest needs to receive your AP scores directly from the College Board. Log in to your College Board profle no later than June 15 to request that your scores be sent to the Ofce of the University Registrar (college code 5885). If you request your scores by this date, they may be received at Wake Forest University in time for registration in July. You must complete this process to ensure that the University Registrar receives your ofcial scores, even if you submitted AP scores with your admissions application or prior to your enrollment. Please note that score processing may take up to two weeks once Wake Forest receives the scores from the College Board. Scores of 4 or 5 will generally
result in AP credit, but there are exceptions. For information on credit awarded, course equivalency and exemptions for specifc tests and scores, see registrar.wfu.edu/ap-ib.
International Baccalaureate Scores Ofcial IB transcripts must be submitted to the Ofce of the University Registrar. Contact your IB program coordinator or submit a request through the IB website as soon as possible. For more information regarding transcript submission, credit awarded, course equivalency and exemptions, please refer to registrar.wfu.edu/ap-ib.
Checking Credits Awarded To determine if your AP/IB credits have been applied to your academic record, go to WIN > Virtual Campus > Academic Transcript. If you believe you will have AP/IB credit for a course but it is not recorded on your transcript by the time of registration, do not register for the course in question. Most students do not want to take a class at Wake Forest for which they will obtain AP/IB credit. Qualifying scores received later will still gain you course credit.

WAKE DOWNTOWN
Innovation
Traditio
If you crave a complete change of scenery from the Quad’s Georgian architecture, grab your scientifc calculator and safety goggles and hop on a shuttle bound for Wake Downtown. Located in Innovation Quarter in the heart of WinstonSalem, Wake Downtown is where tradition meets innovation as engineering, the sciences, the arts and the humanities cross paths inside high-tech labs and classrooms. Students enrolled in the engineering and biomedical sciences programs at Wake Downtown are immersed in an active, roll-up-your-sleeves learning environment. Experiential learning normally reserved for graduate-level study is the cornerstone of these undergraduate opportunities. Wake Downtown’s innovative, interdisciplinary space also houses
courses in the arts and humanities alongside our new anchor programs in engineering, biochemistry and molecular biology, and medicinal chemistry and drug discovery. To provide our Wake Downtown students with every advantage, we set up shop right next to the Wake Forest School of Medicine facilities — not only to give our undergraduates proximity to those labs and research spaces, but to increase collaboration with the School of Medicine faculty as well. Classes aren’t the only thing happening downtown. There is life outside the lab, and we’ve made having fun very convenient. When your brain reaches capacity, we suggest you fll up your senses at an art gallery, outdoor concert or unique downtown eatery. The All-You-Can-Learn Buffet of Knowledge 1 17
B.S. in Engineering This bachelor of science program is innovative and hands-on, just like a good engineer. It ofers a comprehensive and fully immersed technical education with a frm academic grounding in the liberal arts. With Wake Forest’s unsurpassed studentfaculty engagement and real-world learning opportunities, the curriculum extends beyond that of a typical undergraduate engineering program.
B.S. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Students explore the chemical principles that defne life with this interdisciplinary degree ofering from the departments of chemistry and biology. Understanding growth, development, reproduction and genetics begins with the study of living organisms at the biochemical, molecular and cellular levels. Faculty and students use a highly engaged, hands-on approach to learning to develop practical skills for addressing today’s complex biochemical, molecular biological and
118 The All-You-Can-Learn Buffet of Knowledge
biomedical challenges. Emphasizing research that employs analytical and quantitative methods along with high-resolution imaging, this major provides a strong foundation in chemistry and biology. Undergraduates partner with faculty mentors for at least two semesters and/or summers of research, culminating in a senior research project.
Concentration in Medicinal Chemistry and Drug Discovery Discovery is for people who love a challenge as much as they love learning. Leveraging the strength of the chemistry department’s research program, Wake Forest now ofers a concentration in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery, providing a new avenue to earning an American Chemical Societycertifed B.S. degree. With the goal of identifying new therapeutic agents, faculty engage students in an in-depth study of the connections between chemical structure and biological function. This concentration is ideal for students interested in health-related felds, biomedical sciences and pharmacology.

How do I begin to decide what courses to register for during my registration week? There are many resources available to help you think about course selection. What you decide to prioritize for registration will depend largely on your academic interests. The Guided Preregistration Survey will help you refect upon those interests and will also guide you through making decisions about courses to fulfll basic, divisional or pre-professional requirements. A typical frst-semester schedule will include one of two required seminars, Writing Seminar (WRI 111) or First-year Seminar (FYS 100), as guided by your DSP.
How are my registration dates and times determined? The assignment of registration times is randomized across your class.
What do I do if I am traveling or have a confict when my registration period starts? Your registration can be accomplished using any device with internet access. Your access to registration begins at the assigned time and ends July 13 at 11:59 p.m. EDT, so you can register for classes at any time that is most convenient for you once your registration time opens. If you will be unavailable the entire week of registration, please contact the Ofce of Academic Advising prior to June 27.
140 The All-You-Can-Learn Buffet of Knowledge
Many students choose to begin working on their foreign language requirement along with other divisional requirements, while others choose to delve right into areas of academic interest or electives.
How many credit hours should I have each semester? Your credit hours each semester will be somewhere between 12 and 17 hours; 12 hours is the minimum required to be considered a full-time student. Exceeding 17 hours requires special permission, and is rarely approved for your frst semester; 15 credit hours is the average course load per semester to graduate in four years. We typically recommend having 12 to 15 hours for your frst semester at Wake Forest. A strong frst semester is always better than an overly ambitious plan.
What should I register for if I am interested in medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine or an allied health feld, such as physician’s assistant, nursing, pharmacy, etc.? Consult the pre-health professions website: college.wfu.edu/prehealth.
What should I register for if I am interested in pre-business? If there is availability, you may register for ECN 150 or MST 111 (MST 112 for Mathematical Business), but these do not need to be completed until the fall of your sophomore year. In order to maximize potential for academic success in pre-requisite courses, we strongly encourage students to take ECN 150 and MTH 111 in separate semesters.
What should I register for if I am interested in law school ? There are no specifc requirements. You are encouraged to take courses that challenge you to think critically and creatively, and prepare you to read, write and communicate well. For more information, see college.wfu.edu/ prelaw.
Can I wait-list a class? No, not for your frst fall semester. It is important that you are registered in classes instead of being wait-listed for classes where seats may never become available. In future registration periods, wait-listing will be available to you.
What is the relevance of the Directed Self-Placement for my frst writing course? The Directed Self-Placement and your
recommendation from the DSP faculty coordinator help guide your decision-making about your frst writing course. The writing task you complete is commonly used in your writing courses (but not evaluated) in assignments and refections on your writing development. Visit go.wfu.edu/f101dsp.
Why am I getting a prerequisite error when I try to register for a foreign language course? The results of your Foreign Language Placement test will determine your placement for your frst foreign language course. You must register for the course level indicated on your placement test or determined by your AP/IB score. If you are receiving AP/IB credit for a foreign language and still see this error, the Ofce of the University Registrar has not received your ofcial AP/IB score. Please see p. 112 for more information on AP/IB score submission.
I know I will be receiving AP/IB or prior college credit, but this credit is not yet in the WFU system. Therefore, I am having difculty registering for a higher-level class. What should I do? Please contact the Ofce of the University Registrar at registrar@wfu.edu or 336.758.5207.
What should I register for if I am interested in engineering? Consult the engineering department website: college.wfu.edu/engineering/ undergraduate/current-students.
What do I do if classes that I need or want are closed? We understand that it can be frustrating not
The All-You-Can-Learn Buffet of Knowledge 14 1411
to get your frst-choice classes, but please do not get discouraged. It is not uncommon for frst-year students to fnd that some classes are already full. Some closed classes might open up during the add/drop period, and if not, most classes will be ofered again in the future. As a new student, you will have many classes to take, and many options, so therefore, we encourage you to explore: advising.wfu.edu/ academic-planning/major-exploration.
Will changes be made to my schedule? While you will be able to make adjustments to your fall schedule after you meet with your lower division academic adviser once you arrive, The Ofce of Academic Advising will generally not make changes to your fall schedule. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are registering for courses that align with your academic and/or preprofessional interests and goals. The Guided Preregistration Survey and June Advising are designed to help you understand what is required for your unique path at Wake Forest. You are required to complete the former and are strongly encouraged to actively participate in the latter; failure to do so may result in a fall schedule that does not meet your needs. The Ofce of Academic Advising is happy to answer any questions you may have via phone (336.758.3320) or email (undergraduateadvising@wfu.edu).

Student Financial Services manages all Wake Forest student accounts, including tuition, housing and other University-related fees. We’re here to help you in any way we can, and we welcome all questions you may have. Please visit our website for more information on tuition and fees, billing, DEAC, Deacon OneCard, student account refunds, Dewar Tuition Insurance and other student fnancial information. Tuition Insurance Program An unexpected withdrawal due to sickness or injury can mean signifcant fnancial consequences for families. Wake Forest ofers an elective tuition insurance program through A.W.G. Dewar, Inc., that will help minimize fnancial loss if a student sufers a serious illness or accident and must withdraw before the end of a semester. This plan extends and

enhances the University’s published refund policy. The last day to purchase this plan is the day before the frst day of classes. Please see our website for further details.
Student Account Refunds Adjustments to charges, prepayments, fnancial aid disbursements and overpayments often result in credit balances on student accounts. A credit balance is indicated on the student account statement by parentheses around the balance. Example: ($100). Students may sign up for direct deposit for quicker refund processing. Please visit our website for further information regarding sign-up and the refund process.
will need to be sure to check WFU email for billing notifcations. Failure to meet a payment deadline could result in a fnancial hold, which will prevent the student from registering for classes. Being an authorized payer within DEAC also gives SFS employees permission to speak with that individual regarding the student account. Students access their DEAC accounts by logging into WIN>Personal>DEAC. DEAC has mobile and text message capabilities, making it easier and more convenient to view accounts via mobile devices and receive billing notifcations via text message. Please visit fnance.wfu.edu/sfs/deac for helpful information regarding DEAC, including setting up authorized payers, authorizing text messages and making online payments.
Tax Form 1098-T
Prepaid Tuition Plans
A 1098-T will be issued for all students who made payments for qualifed tuition and fees during the tax year. Please visit our website (fnance.wfu.edu/sfs/tax-information) for more information.
Money from a Prepaid or 529 Plan can be used for tuition, fees, books, supplies and equipment required for study at any accredited college, university or vocational school in the United States. Parents/students should notify their Prepaid or 529 Plan of their intent to use the plan for the academic year and provide any necessary documentation. Payment from a Prepaid or 529 Plan needs to be paid to the student account by the established due dates for the semester they apply to; failure to do so could result in registration holds being placed on the account. Depending on the plan, payments typically arrive within 30-45 days. For more information on Prepaid Tuition Plans and the processes involved, please visit fnance.wfu.edu/sfs/payment-methods and select “Sponsored Billing & 529 Plans.”
The Deacon Electronic Account Center (DEAC) This electronic billing system allows students and authorized payers to view student account activity in real time, 24/7. Payments are made via e-check through an automated clearinghouse. DEAC accounts are automatically set up for all incoming students but are not automatically set up for parents or other third parties due to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Students must authorize parents and others to have access to their accounts. If a student does not set up their parents or others as authorized payers, only the student will receive the billing notifcations, as all bills are viewable online only via the DEAC system.

Good Stuf for Aid Recipients Check your Financial Aid Portal – Act now to make sure your aid is all set (accept/ decline loans and work-study, complete loan promissory note and entrance counseling, submit work-study placement survey and complete federal verifcation requirements). We can help you cut through the red tape. Finaid@wfu.edu is a friend — Check your WFU email account regularly. You won’t receive any spam from fnaid@wfu. edu, only important information to ensure
maximum aid eligibility and timely receipt of funds. Please help us to help you by responding without delay. Federal Work-Study — It’s not like other aid programs. It’s a real paycheck to help with daily expenses during the year. It’s not available to pay upfront charges like tuition, housing and meal plans. So, your student account (DEAC) statement will not include estimated Federal Work-Study earnings.
Like a Big Hug, We’ve Got You Surrounded 157
Spend Wisely — Aid eligibility is based on “modest but adequate” standard estimates of expenses. Don’t overspend on a meal plan that you might not fully need. Consider used or rented textbooks. Access free entertainment. Use free or low-cost transportation. Get local discounts. Find other tips. One, Two, Three, Four — Tip: Create a calendar reminder now for the next three years. Aid eligibility is an annual process. Returning students must reapply for need-based aid each year by February 1. When a family’s fnancial circumstances change, aid eligibility also changes. (For example, if fewer siblings will be enrolled as undergraduate students in college in future years, then the remaining enrolled student’s aid eligibility will likely be reduced for those years.) Use the Net Price Calculator to project your likely future aid eligibility if you anticipate such changes. Report Your Outside Scholarships Now — Let us know if you have received (or expect to receive) a scholarship from any source that is not already included in your current fnancial aid record at Wake Forest. Current merit scholarship recipients with any questions should visit Wake Forest Scholars. Athletic scholarship recipients should contact Athletics Compliance at 336.758.3992 with any questions. Taxes — Are scholarships taxable? Am I required to fle a tax return? Find answers. Veterans Education Benefts — If you are planning to use VA Education Benefts, please send your Certifcate of Eligibility (COE) letter to the VA Certifying Ofcial. RDS — Complete the Residency Determination Service online interview if your aid notifcation includes the North Carolina Need-Based Scholarship or other state aid. Summer School Aid — Student Financial Aid does not provide scholarship assistance for summer study.

Changes in Status — Changes in your enrollment (full-time vs. part-time), living location (on-campus, of-campus apartment, or at home with parents/family), and/or learning mode (in-person vs. remote) may change your aid eligibility. Please contact us for advice. Withdrawal and Aid Reduction — If you get sick and must leave Wake Forest during a semester, aid amounts may be reduced. Consider purchasing tuition insurance.
