A New Student's Guide to Involvement
Surveys conducted by the Division of Academic and Student Affairs of students at NC State have found that being involved on campus gives students a stronger support network, makes them more likely to graduate (and on time), helps them develop diverse skill sets, and makes them more marketable to employers when they graduate. In addition, those students feel a greater sense of belonging to the Wolfpack and make friends and memories that will last a lifetime.

Our office has some tips and tricks to share about getting involved on campus during your time at NC State. Visit our guide to involvement for new students (and current students) by clicking here!
