Congratulations to the newly elected 2026-2027 Honor Council board!
Thank you, Wake Forest Law community!
With your support, Wake Forest Law raised more than $6.69 million for scholarships in FY26. We also set new records for the Wake Forest Fund for the School of Law, raising more than $1.4 million, and for Deacs Day of Giving, which brought in more than $240,000 in a single day.
Thank you for making this possible and creating meaningful opportunities for our students!
Mark your calendars! Registration for Law Alumni & Homecoming Weekend will open in late August. Reconnect with classmates and make plans to join us November 6-8. @wfualumni

The modern workplace is full of moments that require legal awareness.
Maybe you`re reviewing a contract. Managing a workplace issue. Evaluating a compliance concern. Navigating new regulations. You may not be an attorney, but understanding the legal landscape can help you lead more effectively.
The online Master of Legal Studies from Wake Forest Law helps professionals develop practical legal knowledge they can apply every day.
