Wilkes University is excited to announce two wonderful learning community opportunities for our first year students.  Learning communities, by design, help to facilitate conversations beyond the classroom setting, allowing profound discussions to take place where students spend the majority of their time – residence halls.

Studies show that students who participate in learning communities are more likely to have more frequent interactions with peers and faculty, higher rates in classroom attendance, higher cumulative GPA, and increased participation in faculty and/or peer mentorship programs than their non-learning community peers.  So why wouldn’t you want to be a part of something this great?

This year we are pleased to offer Learning through Leadership and MOSAIC (Maximizing Opportunities for Students to Achieve an Inclusive Campus).  Both programs have a residential component which means not only will you take the same classes together, but you will also live together in Evans Hall, this year’s designated LC hall.  Learn more about each program by clicking on their links (to the left).
