It's a great school in the Raleigh area, if you are into the liberal arts this the school for you. All the professors are available to meet with you, the campus is beautiful and everything is close. The classes are at least 15 students per class and not the 50 students like other huge colleges. The sport teams are always active here and is one our best reasons for athletics coming here.
I really enjoy the family atmosphere that this school has. You will know everybody, and if you don't know the students by name you will know them by face. The connections with the professors are lovely, and they can even become a close ally on your academic journey. The campus may be small, but it is full of activities almost everyday. Whether they be writing workshops, intramural sports, musicals, sport games, movie nights, etc. It's also convenient that everything is close together, as it makes traveling to building to building swift. Overall this school has given me a new light in my life, and my performing career. The city is also beautiful, and there is always something to do whether it's on campus or in Raleigh!
I love William Peace University! Everyone on campus wants the students to be successful and there are so many opportunities for students to get involved. What I love most are the connections/relationships we can have with our professors. They challenge us and support our decisions on what we want to do with our careers. We also have amazing departments that are set to help guide us along our journey, the Center for Student Success is amazing and so is the Career Design Center! Peace may be small but it has a big heart that you will fall in love with! Go peace pacers!
It is a nice small liberal arts school that allows the students to have more face to face time with the professors because the class sizes are so small. it is fairly easy for people to be known at the school because there are not a lot of students in the school. Books are included in tuition and off-campus is available.

In order to find the right college, i feel that the college you choose should be one that you are comfortable with. I think that you should visit the college and take a tour or maybe speak to some professors or advisors. To make the most out of your college experience, you should get involved as much as possible while also balancing schoolwork. I also feel that you should ask for help when needed and never be afraid to. Try to be open to new people and doing new things that are ethical.
A person who desires a closely knit enviroment with members of a similar socio-economic class should attend this school. A woman who wants to live in a clean enviroment with little distractions school attend this school. This school would be ideal for an extrovert because people are eager to talk.
The lack of diversity because it can be a real culture shock for some people.
Peace College is a Peacful Place full of wonderful women and men who make it their business to ensure that you succeed.
There is no 24 hour places open to eat at on campus.
My classmates are very energetic and work hard to strive to be where they are.
FOR GODS SAKE GET OUT, DO NOT COME HERE!!! ESTROGEN OVERLOAD! Save your life, time and money and PLEASE go somewhere else! This place has gotten horrible since our new President and i fear anymore changes that are going to be made. Peace is giving out parking tickets like there is no tommorow (trying to get our money), Proffs. and other staff are being fired, majors are being dropped, crappy food, you have to buy your own cleaning supplies and toilet paper, and god knows what else is going to happen. I personally beleive that the girls are les/bi because they could not find a man to please them and add to the fact its an all girls school=major bitch fest and estrogen overload! A joke between my friends is how when you come here it either turns you boy crazy and you can never look at a guy the same way again, except only as if you are psycho and you go after any male because your so desparate to be around some testosterone, OR you sadly turn into a lesbian like all the rest. Anyway, i feel worse and worse everytime i have to tell someone (especially BOYS)that i went to a place like this. An all girls school does not make is easy to meet guys (if you actually are still atracted to them within two weeks of being here). Im normally shy, so being here has just destroyed me when it comes to dating and now i just feel desparate to be around guys now, just being in the same room vs. hanging out and talking is just enough for me, but hopefully over time i can return to normal! So with my fianl words i will say DO NOT COME HERE, BEWARE OF PEACE PRISON!!!!!!!!!
There is nothing that I wish I had known before I came to this school. I was already aware of what the school offered from student orientation and also from friends that graduated from Peace.
The number of people I've had the opportunity to meet and work with that are professionals in their field.
Being a private womens college.
Peace College provides a vast amount of tutoring in all courses of studies. All students are welcome to get free tutoring in the tutoring center.
A person who is interested in a party school or wants to be around males should not attend this school. A person who wants to be around intellectuals should not choose this school.
some girls do smoke weed, but not all. and yes, being at an all girls college of course there is lots of lesbians and bisexuals here...but there are a few very rare straight girls here, some are nice and the rest are bitchy.
When we had our old Predisent (Bingham) this place was alright, but ever since we got this new bitch on a power trip named Ms. Townsly, this place has really gone down the drain. It is just sad. The Proffessors (those who are left) are wonderful and really care about students, this is a great place to go to for academics but thats it. Students here actually study, it seems thats all they ever do and im sure every once in a while they talk about classes and what when on during class and things like that. Supposedly if you go here you have a better chance at getting a job after you graduate which i think is stupid because one way or the other your going to get a job after you graduate college no matter where you graduated from. The best classes I have taken here are World Religions, General Psychology and my number one favorite: Intro to Acting. I definetly reccomend them if you choose to go here.
LMAOOOOOO! There is NO life, especially social life here at all!!! Its so sad and pathetic that its actually funny. Girls stay cooped up in there dorms all the time, very cliqey..umm not many girls go anywhere or do anything, and they bitch about how there are no boys on campus and how boring it is there. I guess being an all girls school they expect us to be one GIANT Sorority..buts its waay cliqey.
people think we smoke weed and we are all hippies or lesbians or conservative...i cant think of any other stereotypes.
Peace college...it should really be called "peace prison" is VERY small, it is litterally another world and im surprised anyone has even heard of us. When people ask where i go, i sigh and tell them and they react in the following ways: 1. they already have heard of peace or 2. they have no idea and so i tell them but then they still dont have a clue what i am talking about. This is a suitcase school, girls here go home every chance they get becaue it is SO BORING here! And if the surrounding area (aka ANYWHERE off campus) was not exciting or fun, it would make this place even more misrible. I don't beleive there is any school pride here and i do not have any experience here to remember becaue when you go to this place you are no way in hell getting the typical college experience.
