A learning community is a group of students who take linked courses together as a cohort, supported by faculty, counselors, and peer mentors. Designed to foster collaboration, engagement, and academic success, learning communities provide access to resources like tutoring, career guidance, transfer support, and enrichment activities. By connecting courses with shared themes and co-curricular experiences, learning communities help students build meaningful relationships, develop critical skills, and stay on track toward their college and transfer goals.
