Student Life
Unforgettable moments, unbreakable bonds and unending traditions begin here. See how we connect students with the wider Wolfpack.
Make Yourself at Home
When you’re part of our Pack, you’ll always have a place to call home.
Our division strives to create a safe environment for students to live, learn and thrive. Across campus, you’ll find housing options ranging from residence halls to village communities to apartment complexes. Added bonus? Our residents get around-the-clock support from dedicated staff and live in close proximity to campus resources, so many see improved grades and retention.
Here, you’ll reap the benefits of living alongside people with different backgrounds and worldviews. And by investing time and talent into your community, you’ll build the soft skills employers are looking for and productive citizens need.
March with the Pack! 🐺🌸

This little village on Wolf Plaza is helping people find a home of their own.🏡♥️
Shack-A-Thon supports @HabitatWake and its efforts to provide affordable housing for people in the community. @HabitatNCSU has raised more than $500,000 for Habitat for Humanity, with over 20 student organizations building shacks each year in Wolf Plaza to gather support.

Find Your People
NC State is filled with bright minds and unique perspectives. We work to help make a big campus feel smaller — and connect you with other people who love what you love.
No matter what you’re interested in, you’ll discover like-minded peers here. Get involved in a student organization. (They run the gamut from academics to service opportunities to club sports and beyond.) Build your leadership skills through Student Government and Greek communities. Or help bring some of the Wolfpack’s most iconic events to life with the University Activities Board.
Your future friends are waiting.
630+ Student Organizations
If you’re into it, there’s a student group for it — from biochemistry to beekeeping.
Spark Your Creativity
At this university, we believe the arts are for everyone. We’ve cultivated a space for our students and the wider community to tap into their creative sides.
Arts NC State is our collective of five visual and performing arts programs: the Dance Program, the Department of Performing Arts & Technology, Crafts Center, the Gregg Museum of Art & Design, NC State LIVE and University Theatre.
Our year-round programs and activities are open to everyone, and students of all majors can benefit from getting involved. From singers and sculptors to woodworkers and makers, you’ll find a supportive community of fellow creators — and discover how art can enrich your NC State experience.
