Living Learning Communities

Find Your Circle

Living Learning Communities provide students the opportunity to connect with someone as soon as they arrive on EKU’s campus. LLC’s consist of a group of students with similar majors or interests who live on the same floor or floors of a Residence Hall.

In many cases, students who participate in a Living Learning Community are more likely to stay in college and tend to have higher GPA's than those who do not participate in these communities. Because of their LLC experience, students are also better able to connect with each other, along with all of the faculty and staff connected with LLC’s. Finally, LLC’s give students the opportunity to explore the region, participate in shared coursework and start the path towards academic success at EKU.

Take a look at all of the living learning community options and look at the LLC Highlights to see what might be a great fit for you.

*LLCs are subject to change year to year.
