Study hard. Play hard. And take in everything that WPU and the city of Raleigh have to offer.
Just as important as your academic pursuits are the social, athletic, recreational, creative, spiritual and service-related experiences you will have while you’re here.
Write for the Peace Times. Flex your artistic muscles. Cheer on the Pacers. Take one of our day trips to Washington, D.C. Play intramural basketball. Volunteer. Whether it’s nurturing a lifetime passion or finding an interesting way to spend a Saturday afternoon, you’re sure to find life as a student here both fun and fulfilling.

Student Life Stories

Housing & Dining
Picking out colors for your room or figuring out who’s bringing the TV are important parts of the college experience.

Clubs, Activities & Recreation
The best way to become a part of the campus community is by getting involved.

Health & Wellness
In order to meet your potential in the classroom, you have to stay healthy outside of it. We are committed to helping you.

Student Services and Policies Designed to Support Your Journey
WPU is committed to maximizing all your experiences here, in the classroom and beyond. The Offices of Student Services provide a wide range of resources and programs designed to keep you safe, healthy, plugged-in, well-informed and ready for opportunities after graduation.

Whether you’re a future hall-of-famer or an ardent spectator, athletics are an important part of the Peace identity. WPU is a member of the USA South Athletic Conference in NCAA Division III and fields 18 athletics teams.
