Your Community, Your Way

At Wake Forest Law, our mission is to create a supportive and inclusive community where students thrive throughout their law school careers. From Foundations Week to Commencement and the bar exam, we’re committed to ensuring you have the resources you need to succeed academically, professionally, and socially. 

Beginning with your very first year at Wake Forest Law, you’ll find there are countless opportunities to build your leadership skills, get out of your comfort zone, and realize your full potential. Whether you’re passionate about pro bono work, eager to participate on a trial team, or interested in joining one of our 20+ student organizations, there’s something for everyone. 

And of course we know that law school is more than learning torts or working on a law review. During your time here, you’ll grow in surprising, incredible ways. You’ll forge friendships that will last a lifetime. You’ll become the best version of yourself.

We can’t wait to welcome you into our community, share in your journey, and celebrate your many achievements.
