Choosing which law school you will attend is a considerable choice. We recognize how important it is for you to experience as much as possible before making your decision — viewing campus facilities, seeing the interactions between students and professors, and exploring the curricular and student life opportunities available. Wake Forest Law is dedicated to providing engaging experiences that show not only how we have adapted to current norms, but how our community thrives regardless of modality.
We invite you to explore the various ways in which to engage with us virtually this semester:
More information about each of these opportunities is contained below.
Since we may not be able to meet you at in-person events this semester, we invite you to join us for a virtual information session where we'll provide you with information and dialogue that is typically available at in-person recruitment events. We'll review application timelines, program information, view a short walking tour of the law school, and dedicate time to answer your questions. We're also pleased to offer our traditional in-person workshops in a virtual format.
If you are interested, please contact us at lawadmissions@wfu.edu or 336-758-5437 for more information.
Gaining perspective of the physical spaces where most of the law school experience takes place is also important. While no virtual experience can match walking through a facility in person, we invite you to view our short Virtual Tour video.
Our admissions staff is always eager to engage with prospective students and provide answers to your questions about Wake Forest Law. If you would like to engage with us, feel free to schedule a mutually convenient time below.
Admissions representatives will be in attendance at various virtual law fairs throughout the semester. The registration process and format of each of these events may be different depending on the host institution. For more information, links to the individual event websites are included below when available.
