Living Learning Communities

Campus Living & Learning works with TAMUG Faculty and Staff to implement Learning Communities (LCs) and Living Learning Communities (LLCs) to give students enriching academic experiences outside of the classroom. LCs and LLCs are designed to aid students in meeting their collegiate goals while enforcing the idea of community and personal connections among peers, Faculty, and Staff. LCs and LLCs have courses in which students enroll via HOWDY using the CLGV course code. CLGV courses do not carry tuition or course credit, but may carry a fee if the faculty host deems this to be necessary for field trips and guest speakers.

The LLC application for 2022-2023 academic year will open on March 1, 2022 and will close for priority decisions on April 29th, 2022. Updates to the application timeline will be posted here.

Currently Offered LCs & LLCs:

Aggies are leaders. Enrolled in leadership classes, students will learn how to apply their leadership skills to their field of study. Focused on tasks bigger than themselves, students in the A&M-Pact LLC will be good stewards of the world’s finite resources. They will work to create a more sustainable residence hall, campus, and world. Through service opportunities and sustainability projects, students will live out Selfless Service, a core value of Texas A&M University. Participants can then take this knowledge to become leaders in the campus community, student organizations, their respective industries, local communities, and nationally.

The Engineering Living Learning community provides engineering students with an enhanced learning experience, engineering academic support and gained insight into the field of engineering. Students will also have the opportunity to meet alumni in the field as well as having specialized study groups that are with those living in their community. With this collaboration, students will have peer interactions and focused learning experiences outside of the classroom that will support them in their future engineering career pathway.

Students placed in this living learning community participate in the unique opportunity to gain extra preparation for the following Fall Semester by taking specialized courses during the Summer II Term. During this time, Galveston Gateway students learn the necessary skills needed for successful matriculation in higher education and transition smoothly into the Fall Semester. Please note that students are placed in Galveston Gateway by the Admissions Office, as opposed to applying for it.
