STUDENT HOUSING
Living-Learning Communities
Discover your passion for exploring real social issues, connect with a community, and work together with friends on creating a better future. Living-learning communities provide undergraduate students an opportunity for deeper, more meaningful, and connected learning in a shared residential and academic environment. Students in these communities are enrolled in a common set of courses and live together in a designated residential setting.
