Raleigh, North Carolina – one corner of the famed “Research Triangle.” It’s not just our home; it’s a big part of who we are.
Our roots in the city and the region run deep. William Peace University has been growing and evolving together with the city of Raleigh for almost 160 years. Today we are a proud partner with hundreds of local businesses, schools, organizations and government agencies who share our deep commitment to our community and our students’ education. But it’s not all about work. A balanced college experience calls for culture, recreation and play time too, and it’s all here in abundance. That’s Our Raleigh. Our “91,000 acre campus.” We think you will love it as much as we do.
