Wake Forest's undergraduate social scene is heavily influenced by greek life. However, fraternities and sororities are highly integrated to both each other and independents, socially speaking. Greek social events are generally open to all students, Greek and non-Greek. Wake Forest's Greek life is unique in that the Greeks don't have houses concentrated in a "Greek Row". Instead Greeks occupy lounges and their adjoining halls of a greater building. These areas are spread out evenly across campus, with the exception of Delta Kappa Epsilon, which has its residence off campus. Wake Forest has a deferred rush process, whereby freshman rush their second semester, giving them a semester's time to become acquianted to new friends and the school. Upperclassmen are permitted to rush both in the fall and the spring. Though most greeks pledged their freshman year, it is not uncommon for students to pledge during an upperclassmen year (predominantly sophomore year). According to www.collegeprowler.com, Wake Forest gets an A+ for its greek scene for offering variety, lack of greek rivalries, and excellent social connection with the general student population.
