Living Learning Communities

Welcome to the Living Learning Communities sponsored by the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Here we have organized all of our living learning community information into one section to better serve you during your tenure here at UNCG. From Halls that offer class credits to special communities that exist within your residence hall, here you're bound to find something to grab your interest.

  • Ashby Residential College (opens in a new window)
    • Located in Mary Foust Hall
    • Ashby Residential College is a 2-year living/learning community for 120 freshman and sophomore students. Ashby Residential College provides a setting that offers small classes, on-site advising, and encourages innovative study, unity of academic and social experiences, and close student-faculty contacts.


  • Cornelia Strong College (opens in a new window)
    • Located in South Spencer Residence Hall
    • Cornelia Strong College was founded in 1994 by a group of interested faculty members and is modeled on the Harvard University Houses, which are themselves copies of the older colleges of Oxford and Cambridge Universities in England. Strong College offers its members the opportunity to join and contribute to an informal social and academic community of students and faculty within the context of the greater University. It is a place, in the words of a parent, "where people look after each other."

  • First Year Experience (FYE)
    • Located in Reynolds Hall
    • Does the thought of meeting new people, selecting new and different classes, and being placed in a whole new environment make you feel excited, but a little apprehensive? The First Year Experience Program is designed to provide its participants with the tools and resources to be successful at UNCG, both inside as well as outside the classroom.

  • Grogan College (opens in a new window)
    • Located in Grogan Residence Hall
    • This community is designed around small groups of first year students who share common interests, take courses together on a common topic or major, live together in Grogan Residence hall, make lasting friendships, and meet with faculty and upper class peer mentors for a variety of activities and outings designed to strengthen academic skills, develop leadership competencies, explore interests, get you involved on campus and help you grow as a healthy and whole person who cares for themselves and their world.

  • International House (Co-sponsored by International Programs)
    • Located in Phillips Residence Hall
    • I-House is designed to give students an international experience within the residence hall community. A variety of cultural, social, and language-learning opportunities take place throughout the year (foreign films, international dinners, etc.). By participating, students expand their awareness and understanding of the world and its people.

  • Leaders Emerging And Developing (LEAD)
    • Located in Cone Residence Hall
    • The LEAD program is open to students of all academic majors who are interested in achieving both their academic and leadership potential. This community offers a living–learning environment designed to help students develop the skills, values and commitment necessary to become effective and ethical leaders.
