How to Participate in a Learning Community

How do I register?
At Summer Registration, ask your advisor to assist you during your advising appointment.

If space is available, you may add a Learning Community or switch sections up through the second week of class. Your college advisor will help you do so.

Learning Communities are offered only during the fall semester and are limited to first–year students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Enrollment is on a first–come, first–served basis, and space is limited.

How do I choose a Learning Community?
Select your Learning Community from the more than 60 sections offered. Choose the class that most interests you. You can’t go wrong. All of the classes fulfill general education requirements toward graduation in any major.

Are there extra costs?
No. All fees are included in your regular registration fees for the three courses. However, students who enroll in a Learning Community and then choose not to attend the University should contact their college office immediately to avoid being billed for tuition and fees. Both the University and the college must be notified of your intent not to enroll.

What if I decide not to attend the University?
If you have enrolled in a Learning Community and then decide not to attend the University, you must contact LAS immediately to avoid being billed for tuition and fees. Both the University and college must be notified of your intent not to enroll.

Do I have to live in a specific residence hall?
No. The LAS Learning Communities program is not affiliated with the University of Illinois Residence Halls. You may live in any University–approved housing while participating in a Learning Community. There are, however, Living–Learning Communities that are associated with residence halls. You can find out more about them online at www.housing.uiuc.edu/living/llc.
