Housing
Kenichi Kunikane (Japan) brought his family to WFU for his year of LL.M. studies
Wake Forest does not have on-campus university housing for graduate students. LL.M. students have, however, many other housing alternatives:
- University-owned houses for international and graduate students directly across the street from the law school
- Privately-owned, off-campus apartments and rental houses within walking distance of the law school
- Privately-owned, off-campus apartments and rental houses convenient to the law school by car
You may also want to rent an apartment with one of our JD students, with whom we can put you in contact. In the spring after you have been accepted, we will mail to you lists of the various housing options.
Other University offices that maintain lists of available off-campus housing include:
- Wake Forest University Off-Campus Real Estate Office
- Law School Admissions Office House Hunt list
- Wake Forest University Residence Life and Housing Rental Opportunities
- Click on "Off-Campus Rentals and Roommate Search" near the bottom of the page
The University also maintains a list of hotels that are close to the campus.

Transportation
Some of our LLM students purchase inexpensive used automobiles when they arrive in the U.S. to make their stay more convenient. They often resell these cars to other LLM or JD students after graduation. For additional details about owning and driving automobiles in North Carolina, visit the Center for International Studies website.
Public transportation is not readily available to the extent it exists in European and Asian countries.There is only a limited public bus transit system in Winston-Salem. Most people rely on private automobiles. You may wish to view a map of the Reynolda Campus of Wake Forest University and the city of Winston-Salem.
