NCSSM-Durham
Since 1980, a diverse residential community of motivated learners from every corner of NC
A tuition-free, world-class education in the heart of Durham
In 1980, NCSSM opened in Durham on the grounds of the former Watts Hospital with a class of 150 juniors. Today, 680 students call the Durham campus home each academic year, living in residence halls, eating meals with friends in the campus dining hall, exercising in the Charles R. Eilber Physical Education Center (known to students as the PEC), and studying and relaxing beneath century-old oaks on the campus lawns.
