No, Wake Forest is a tier 2 university, per Ivy Scholars. Though the institute is among the best private universities in Winston-Salem, it is still some way off the best universities in the world.

The institute offers good value for money, with job offers from top tech companies like Amazon, Google, Deloitte and Meta, however, its faculty network isn't known to have many Nobel Prize winners, and it does not have exclusive access to the latest technologies in the market, that some of the Ivy League universities in US, do.
