You can apply to University Housing once you have been accepted to NC State University. You will be sent an information packet informing you of all of your options for residence hall, including villages that are associated with the buildings. There are three main areas of campus:
Central: These residence halls are very centrally located. They are located right next to the free expression tunnel which is the pathway that will take you to the majority of your classes. Freshmen tend to live on central campus. Tucker and Owen house the First Year College Program students. Turlington houses the Arts Village and Alexander houses the Global Village. All of these buildings are hall style. Bowen, Metcalf and Carroll are all together known as the Tri-towers and they are suite style.
West: West Campus holds three residence halls: Bragaw, Lee and Sullivan. Sullivan is where the Scholars Village is and Lee is where Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) and Students Advocating for Youth (SAY) students are housed. Lee and Sullivan are both suite style and consist of mostly freshman and sophomores. Bragaw is in the shape of an X and hosts mostly sophomores, but all classes are welcome in all three buildings.
East: East Campus hosts the most residence halls out of all the campuses at NC State. These include Wood, Bagwell, Becton, Berry, Gold, Syme, Watauga, North, Welch, and Avent Ferry. Bagwell, Becton and Berry are a part of the quad-Bagwell is home to the University Honors Village.
