About Living Learning Communities

Living Learning Communities (LLCs) provide unique environments where select groups of students share common residential and learning experiences. Based on disciplinary and interdisciplinary themes, LLCs create intentional links between academic, social, and residential experiences.

Benefits

Living with students who share interests, passions, and challenges
Convenient, natural study groups
Special events and off-campus fieldtrips
Targeted academic enrichment
Networking opportunities with faculty
Early arrival to campus (first-year)

Partnership

Students with similar majors or academic interests live and learn together, with approximately 300 first-year students participating in 2011. Each community is facilitated by Residential Life/Learning Communities staff, faculty partners, the Office of Student Retention, and the Student Learning Center. The faculty partners interact informally on a regular basis and also create formal programs and information sessions to get to know students on multiple levels.

Admission Process

It is an honor and privilege to be a member of a Living Learning Community. Spaces are limited. Priority is given to students who demonstrate a commitment to academic success, intellectual curiosity, civic engagement, and lifelong learning.

Applicants must complete their housing application, available online in early March at http://www.brockport.edu/reslife/applying.html .

Select an LLC to join - please limit your preferences to two LLCs.
If you are a first-year student, remember to complete the additional questions on your housing application regarding the LLCs or you might not be placed correctly.
