Living Learning Communities

Live Where You Learn

A Living Learning Community (LLC) is a place where students who share similar majors or interests live together in a designated residential community, enroll in a minimum of one 3-credit course and a 1-credit common hour course each semester. Additionally, members will participate in community activities and initiatives. One of the great advantages of joining an LLC is receiving priority class registration

LLC STUDENTS ON AVERAGE:

Show higher satisfaction with their choice of major, leading to fewer major changes
Attain a higher first semester GPA than non-LLC students
Experience higher retention rates into Sophomore year than non-LLC students
