Founded in 1834 by the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, Wake Forest is distinguished by its small size, a commitment to liberal arts education, a dedication to the values rooted in its Baptist heritage, and the centrality of the undergraduate College to its mission.
Undergraduate enrollment is about 4,000. Students are supported in their quest for knowledge by a rigorous curriculum, small classes, a low student/faculty ratio (currently at 10:1), expansive resources, cutting-edge technology, and opportunities for study abroad. Eleven Wake Forest students have been named Rhodes Scholars since 1986, including one in each of the last four years.
An additional 2,400 students are enrolled in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, the School of Law, the Babcock Graduate School of Management, and the Divinity School on the Reynolda Campus, and in the Wake Forest University School of Medicine on the Bowman Gray campus near downtown Winston-Salem.
