We hope you'll find the answers to all of your questions about Residential Learning Communities by exploring the links at the top of this page. Participating in a Residential Learning Community at JMU will offer your exciting opportunities that you wouldn't have otherwise. Studies have shown that JMU students who participate in learning communities achieve higher GPA's in their first year and are more engaged in the learning process than students who do not participate. Furthermore, you get the unique opportunity to live and take classes with a small group of students who share similar interests! So, take a few moments, look around, and see if Residential Learning Communities are for you!
