Learning Communities

Where More Connections = More Success.

Learning is richer when working closely with other students. Enrollment in Learning Communities helps you connect with other students and significantly increases your chances of passing and excelling in your coursework.

What is a Learning Community?

A learning community is a pair of courses grouped with a common theme. Instructors work together to create assignments and learning experiences that cross over into each class. The same group of students work together to form a community that supports one another’s academic achievements. Learning communities are recognized as a High-Impact Practice by the Association of American Colleges and Universities and correlate to higher success rates.

A learning community is a proven learning model with benefits such as:

  • Boosting Your Confidence as you work closely with supportive classmates
  • Deeper Learning as you study related subjects and disciplines together
  • Faster Completion where you may finish a course sequence in one semester instead of two
