As one chapter closes for the Class of 2023, another opens for our continuing and incoming students. This month we celebrate our graduating Deacs and turn our attention to key dates for those returning and those coming home to Wake Forest for the first time. 

We want to take the time to congratulate the Class of 2023! For those of you with a student graduating, please know that you and your Deac will always have a home away from home here on campus. 

Of impressive members of the Class of ‘23, we want to give special thanks and congratulations to all of our graduating RA’s and Graduate Staff. We are deeply grateful for their commitment to our communities and the residential experience of our students.

For those of you with incoming students, please note that the Housing and Dining Application, as well as their photo for their Deacon OneCard ID, are all due on June 5th.

The Housing and Dining Application can be accessed via the Housing Portal. (Please note that only your student can access this link, via their ‘@wfu.edu’ email address). Students who would like to request a disability-related accommodation should visit our housing and dining accommodations page. Incoming students must submit requests and supporting documentation by July 1. 

Please feel free to continue to reference the Incoming Student page on our website for any questions you may have and to begin to plan for your move this fall.
