Question Is there a Wake Line bus to the Wake Forest Hospital?

3 Upvotes

Just applied to a position as the Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, but completely forgot to think about transportation. Is there a Wake Line bus that drops students off near the hospital? Or would I need to purchase student parking so I could make the commute.

Question Homophobia/Allyship at WFU? Would mentioning being transgender affect my application chances?

4 Upvotes

I’m applying to WFU in August for Class of 2031, and this is my DREAM school. I’m writing some of my essays right now and just seeing stats online about political leanings on campus, I’m starting to wonder if writing about my identity and how it shaped me and whatnot would add bias against me. There’s no way to get genuine information on if this would happen but if any queer/ally WFU students have advice it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

(I am a scholarship recipient for a queer organization, so hiding it entirely isn’t the plan. My chosen name is also on some national club databases. But I just don’t want an essay to like… idk. I’m overthinking it)

Question Wilderness to Wake Questions

2 Upvotes

Anyone who has done W2W and coming from out of state.....confused on move in. Arrive Aug 13th for W2W, wasn't planning on moving in completely since my roommate isn't doing pre-orientation but doesn't look like I can choose a move in time on 18th. So here are a couple of questions:

- Did you sleep in your dorm the first night (13th) I think we leave for W2W morning of the 14th. What if dorm is ghost town?! lol

-Feel like I'm "taking over" getting completely moved in on the 13th but no clue when we get back to campus on the 18th, maybe a mistake to wait?

Thanks so much!

Question Bio 150 prof advice

0 Upvotes

I'm building a saved schedule as an incoming freshman and want to know if there are any differences between bio 150 profs Arnett and Tague? From what I've heard they are both difficult classes to take but that Arnett's lectures might be more clear? Would love to hear from anyone who has taken their classes.

Question What do I email about? (waitlist)

3 Upvotes

I’ve heard tons of times that it’s good to continue talking to WFU if you’re on the waitlist, to show interest and increase your chances. But what exactly do I say? I’m not sure what’s a valid reason to email the admissions office.

Question Family orientation during move in

1 Upvotes

Hi,
Could anyone offer some insight as to what the family orientation is about? Trying to plan and it seems like some of the parent and student events are separate. Are they information sessions/discussions or events?Do parents actually attend the parent events or do most leave? Not looking to have my daughter stranded by herself when most other parents are staying, but I don’t necessarily want to hang around if I won’t be spending the time with her. I know they advise to leave evening of 19th as 20th begins student orientation. Considering leaving 19th midday…
Thank you in advance.
