A supportive environment. A bonding experience. A forging of friendships.
A wise choice. You are about to begin your freshman year at Wilkes University and have the opportunity to participate in a program that eases your transition from high school to college. Learning Communities allow you to take classes and become involved in social activities with a common group of students. The friendships formed enhance your total Wilkes experience.
Wilkes' learning communities are open to invited freshmen in the fall semester.
Two courses with a common theme are connected by coursework -- including the First-Year Foundations (FYF 101) course -- that fulfills graduation requirements.
Research has shown, and Wilkes students who've participated in a learning community have noted, make the completion and comprehension of coursework effective and efficient.
Wilkes offers three learning communities in the 2006-2007 academic year.
