Life at Carolina
Discovery and self-discovery: at UNC-Chapel Hill, we think the best education includes learning more about yourself and your role in the Carolina community.
Find your place. Explore your path.
Housing
Make yourself at home. Campus housing is a safe, affordable place to put your feet up while you put roots down at Carolina, an unmatched opportunity to immerse yourself in Tar Heel life.
Carolina Union
More than a building, the Union offers a variety of spaces for students to relax, refresh, chat with friends or study.
Campus Recreation
Engage in some serious fun. Campus Recreation welcomes students, faculty, staff and family members of all ability levels to enjoy our inclusive social and physical activities, from personal fitness and outdoor education to intramural and club sports.
Health and Wellness
Be well, from head to heels. At Carolina, we believe health and wellness are a lifelong crucial part of achieving goals, whether inside the classroom, in our relationships, at our desks or out in the world.
Community and Public Service
Connect to your purpose. The Carolina Center for Public Service blends UNC-Chapel Hill's dual mission of service and learning to build and spread engagement with the world around us.
