Living Learning Communities are an academic strategy that link academics to on-campus living. Each Georgia Tech community is an integrated experience that promotes interactions between faculty and students, fosters collaboration among students, enhances campus and civic engagement, and eases both the academic and social transition to college.

LIVING LEARNING COMMUNITIES

Students admitted to Georgia Tech can apply to Explore, Global Leadership, Grand Challenges, the Honors Program, and Impact  Living Learning Communities. While each of these communities offers a different focus, they all have required academic coursework, a first year living requirement, and the option to continue living with members of the community in nearby apartments as upper-level students. All admitted students can apply via their admission portal. Please visit each community's website to learn more and find contact and visit information.
