Student Handbook

The Student Handbook serves as a comprehensive guide, helping students navigate their academic journey, understand institutional expectations, and make the most of their experience at Wake Forest Law. In our Student Handbook, you’ll find information about academic policies and procedures, administrative resources, and the Wake Forest Law Honor Code.

Honor Code

The Honor Code is essential to fostering an environment of honesty, integrity, and professionalism. The rules of the Honor Code help to ensure fairness, trust, and accountability in all facets of life at the Law School. Upholding the tenets of the Honor Code are a key part of maintaining a respectful and productive environment for all.


The Honor Council hears and decides on actions related to alleged violations of the Honor Code. Students are elected to the Honor Council by the student body.
