Your time at Duke will be healthy, fulfilling, and safe; you will eat well, you will live well, and you will thrive.

From performing arts to wellness living/learning communities, vegetarian meal plans to gourmet coffee bars, meal delivery to a variety of choices in the Great Hall—Duke provides something for just about every taste.

Students on Living at Duke

"The East Campus Frosh experience offers a great opportunity to meet others. The freshmen dorms...create a small community that allows students from many different academic fields and geographic locales to interact. Many of my best friends were made on my freshman year hall."
— Nooree Lee, '06

"Since almost everyone lives on campus, there is a sense of community at Duke. There's a distinct social atmosphere that comes with everyone being on campus at the same time."
—Gina Pang, '06
