Make Yourself at Home
You’re always in the center of the action when you make your home on our campus. Live steps away from exciting activities and community events, support services and amenities. (Plus, we’ve got you covered for everything from coffee-fueled study sessions to late-night snack runs.)
Housing
We’ve got 20 residence halls and four apartment complexes. Discover flexible options that put you around the corner from classes, meals and study spots.
Dining
Coffee shops, grab-and-go options, dining halls, full-service restaurants — we offer endless convenient ways to enjoy a great meal.
Living and Learning Villages
Live in a community of students who share your passions — from sustainability to wellness and beyond.
Fraternities and Sororities
Be part of NCState’s active Greek life, with more than 50 organizations offering close-knit environments for learning, leading and serving together.

Find Your People
Our campus is filled with bright minds and diverse perspectives, so you’re bound to meet a group of like-minded peers. And the connections you make with your wider Wolfpack will last a lifetime.
Talented artists. Skilled athletes. Keen crafters. Hardcore hobbyists. No matter your interests, there’s a place for you — and we’ll help you find it.
Student Organizations
You’ll find your perfect fit among our more than 600 groups — whether you’re into beekeeping, bluegrass, biochemistry or anything (seriously, anything) else.
