Meredith College held a Voter Registration and Information Fair on September 17, 2024, as part of National Voter Registration Day. Students, faculty, and staff could register to vote, change their voter registration, or get information on the 2024 election. 

Meredith College students have a strong history of political participation. In 2020 and 2022, Meredith students had the highest percentage of eligible students being registered to vote and actually voting of any college or university in North Carolina. In 2022, 88% of eligible students registered to vote. In 2020, over 63% of Meredith students voted in the presidential election.

Meredith was notified in September 2024 that it had received three awards in the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge for nonpartisan student voter participation efforts in the 2022 midterm election. These most recent accolades were the Best in Class Award for Most Improved Voting Rate at a Private 4-Year Institution; North Carolina Campus Voting Challenge Most Improved Voting Rate at a 4-year Institution; and the North Carolina Campus Voting Challenge Highest Voting Rate at a 4-year Institution.

The College has also earned a Gold Seal from ALL IN based on its 2022 campus voting rate from the National Study of Learning, Voting, and Engagement (NSLVE) report, which is administered by Tufts University.

The National Voter Registration Day event was one of three voter registration and information sessions held at Meredith prior to the 2024 election.

National Voter Registration Day is a nonpartisan civic holiday dedicated to celebrating democracy.
