Our students learn in a supportive and close-knit community, from dedicated faculty who challenge and mentor them.

Students are immersed in the professional, cultural, academic, and social opportunities of our Raleigh location, broadening their world-view so they are prepared to work, live, and thrive in a diverse world. At WPU, we meet students where they are and take them where they need to go, pushing them to be better and do more so they have the skills and confidence to meet any opportunity and face any challenge.
