Freshman Academy and Housing

Summer 2009

Freshman Academy offers living-learning communities for students who would like to live on campus during summer term. Students in these communities are enrolled in a set of classes with each other and live in the same residence areas. This provides the opportunity for learning to take place outside the classroom as students discuss and study course material in their residence halls.

To facilitate the living-learning environment, Freshman Academy has worked with the On-Campus Housing office to assign the living-learning communities to specific halls on campus. When students are registered for a learning community, they will be allowed to select a room within the housing areas designated for Freshman Academy.

Freshman Academy learning communities are also available for students living in off-campus housing or at home.

Fall 2009

Freshman Academy offers two kinds of learning community experiences: 1) neighborhood learning communities based on the housing complex where students reside; and 2) non-housing specific learning communities. Students interested in participating in a Freshman Academy learning community must apply to Freshman Academy.

All students will follow the same Housing application and room selection process regardless of their participation in a Freshman Academy learning community. Changing rooms from one housing complex to another (such as Helaman to Heritage Halls) will affect participation in neighborhood learning communities.
