Students who have not fully met the above requirements may still apply while requirements are in progress. The number of students who can be accommodated is limited. Meeting the minimum requirements is not a guarantee of admission. Therefore, the School of Business reserves the right to deny admission or readmission to any student even though he or she meets the minimum requirements. Readmission to the Wake Forest University School of Business undergraduate program must be approved by the Committee on Admissions, Continuation, and Scholarships but first requires readmission to Wake Forest University, requirements for which are provided in this bulletin.
