Go to State's library, get involved in clubs (here or at State), Make friends at State

There is so much to do on and off campus. Meredith holds plays and dance festivals during the weekends. They also have Meredith and a movie where they screen a movie in the courtyard. Off campus you have a wide range of chooses. Since we are located in the heart of Raleigh the mall is fifteen minutes away and there are hundreds of restaurants to go to and hang out at after hours. Also there are clubs no too far away. Plus Ben and Jerry's is right across the street in a little mini mall with a lot of other great restaurants. There is also something to do even if you are just hanging around in your dorm room.

We have many traditions and community service projects. Since we are downtown Raleigh, Meredith College has many restaurants and parks around.

Tons of stuff to do in downtown Raleigh (if you have a car- the bus is not reliable). There's a few areas to walk to, right across Hillsborough is a miniature mall type thing with a bar and coffee shop and some good areas to study, and behind the school is Whole Foods- also serves coffee with some nice hangout spots.

There is a pool on campus, various events during the week and the campus is near the Raleigh area which has many things to do.

Meredith has many on campus activities to enjoy and meet new friends.

Aside from the on campus clubs and activities the campus is within walking distance of NC State football games and a large strip of shops,cafes and restaurants.

If there isn't a social or campus-wide activity going on, there are plenty of pass-times around campus to occupy free time. The campus offers nature-based attractions and activities such as the green-way (available for walking, jogging, running, and bike-riding), as well as a lake-side gazebo, a wide open amphitheatre (for campus concerts and ceremonies), and a regular outdoor film showing. Since Meredith College resides directly on Raleigh's well-known Hillsborough Street, there is an array of fun locations off campus. All of Hillsborough is loaded with restaurants, shops, coffee houses, markets, and other fun attractions. The down town area of Raleigh is all filled with these same attractions and more! Also, no more than ten minutes down the highway is the Crabtree shopping mall, packed with restaurants and stores of all kinds, which is always a plus in a college city. There is also fun around Raleigh and Meredith's campus that I'm sure are yet to be discovered, and students are encouraged to come and seek them out for themselves!

There are so many clubs and traditions to participate in on campus. However, Raleigh has many attractions, hot spots, and movie theaters to hang out at.

Meredith is a sisterhood, so we often like to hang out together and simply relax.
