School Mission

(Data appear as originally submitted by this school)
Wake Forest University is among a small, elite group of American liberal arts institutions recognized for their outstanding academic quality. Wake Forest further distinguishes itself through its beautiful residential campus, extensive study-abroad programs, a need-blind admissions policy, an undergraduate student body of about 4, 000, sophisticated computing and networking technology, and Atlantic Coast Conference athletic programs. At Wake Forest, undergraduate classes are taught by full-time faculty, not graduate assistants. The student/faculty ratio is 10: 1 and professors embody the teacher-scholar ideal of teaching and research. The university motto, Pro Humanitate, reflects Wake Forest's sense of community and dedication to service.
