UA Living-Learning Communities
Living-Learning Communities are established to provide distinctive settings where student academic success is supported through residential experiences. Living-Learning Communities bring academics into the residence halls through on-site classes, advising and referral services, tutors, and special opportunities to interact with faculty.
The goal of our Living-Learning Communities is four-fold:
- Provide special attention to first-year students while offering mentoring opportunities to upperclassmen.
- Focus on academic achievement in a productive and supportive setting.
- Foster the joining of the scholarly and social aspects of student life.
- Promote collaboration among faculty, staff and students.
