William Peace University, located in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina, operates as a private liberal arts institution on a historic 21-acre campus characterized by its antebellum-era Main Building and mix of modern academic facilities. Originally founded in 1857 as Peace Institute, the university served as a women's college until becoming fully coeducational in 2012. The university maintains small class sizes and offers undergraduate programs with particular emphasis in professional studies, business administration, and liberal arts disciplines. Students reside in one of four campus residence halls, with first-year students required to live on campus, and the university competes in NCAA Division III athletics as the Pacers in the USA South Athletic Conference.
