Living Learning Communities

Honors LLCs

If you ask any of our students what aspect of the Honors program has meant the most to them, they’ll consistently answer, “community.” Our program fosters a tight-knit community among students and faculty from the first day students arrive on campus. One of the ways that we facilitate this is through our Living Learning Communities.

The Honors Living Learning Communities are located in several different housing facilities on campus, and are available for all four years. Faculty from the Honors Program and Housing staff are committed to coordinating activities and events for all students within the community. Students applying for Honors housing must be approved through the University Honors Program in order to be part of the community. Honors housing is not guaranteed and is based on availability.

LLC residents live with other students in the Honors Program, which allows them to get to know their peers outside of the classroom. Since students will be taking many of the same classes as other residents, the LLC provides a good support system and built-in study group. Each LLC has a designated LLC Resident Advisor, who can also provide support and guidance about residential and program-specific issues. While you do not have to live in the LLC, it is highly recommended. 

This year, the first-year LLC is housed in Del Rey North. The upper division LLCs are housed in the O’Malley Apartments. 

Juniors and Seniors may also apply to live at Honors House, an 11-bed community just a few steps away from the Loyola Boulevard gate, where many Honors events are also held.
