Apply to Live in a Learning Community

Congratulations!

You've decided to apply to live in a Learning Community (LC)!

There is no additional housing cost to live in a community.

Space is limited. Waiting lists will be established once a community is full. Students on a waiting list will still be considered for regular housing (you will not lose your spot).

Eligibility

• Students must be eligible for housing on the UConn Storrs campus
