Learning communities are designed to make your freshman experience at Old Dominion University a great one. In joining one of the learning communities, you get to meet students and professors, and become part of a group of students who are more likely to graduate!
Learning communities also provide the advantage of students with common interests learning, studying and socializing together.
Learning community course groupings are organized around a theme or academic area. So, in addition to taking classes in common with a small group of fellow students, in a learning community, you will:
satisfy degree requirements
create a link between your academic and social experiences
find it easy to form study groups
be introduced to academic resources at Old Dominion
develop a sense of community among your fellow students
