Experience tradition the Bronco way.
Discover your potential outside the classroom

Like many historically black institutions, FSU is alive with rich traditions that add energy and excitement to student life. From the minute you step on campus for Welcome Week, Orientation, and Operation Smooth Move, you’ll get a sense for how fun it is to be a Bronco. FSU puts on one of the best Homecoming celebrations around with step shows, sporting events, coronation, a fashion show, concerts, and many activities sponsored by our Greek organizations. And that’s just the beginning. From Rodeo Week to the Honda Campus All-Star Quiz Bowl and everything in between, FSU is all about you!  

Love the location.

You won’t get lost and you won’t be bored. The FSU campus is constantly evolving to meet the changing needs of our growing student body. We are a midsize university set on 92 acres where 75 percent of the buildings are new or newly renovated. We also boast one of the lowest crime rates of any institution in the UNC system. Plus, students love our diversity and enjoy living with classmates from all over the world.

Get up and go.

For staying fit, FSU has it all. Students come together to compete in and watch our 5 intramural and 12 NCAA intercollegiate sports. Bronco pride runs strong; our varsity teams have brought home more than 26 championships in recent years in football, basketball, golf, volleyball, tennis, bowling, and softball. We also offer a wealth of recreational activities, including outstanding fitness facilities for swimming, weight training, and racquetball.

Reach out and make an impact.

Res Non Verba. “Deeds Not Words.” Our school motto defines FSU’s emphasis on civic and social responsibility. And our students bring the motto to life by contributing more than 50,000 hours to community service each year. By assisting organizations such as public schools, Boys and Girls Clubs, and the Cape Fear Valley Medical Center, students bond with each other and the community and discover the power of reaching out to those in need.

Lead the way.

College is the perfect time to build your leadership skills in preparation for the future. At FSU, you’ll find no limit to the opportunities for leadership development. Join the Student Government Association, the Student Activities Council, AUTOS (the Commuter Student Association), ROTC, or a number of other organizations designed to bring out the leader in you.
