Learning Communities

Learning Community cohorts are composed of up to 20 students who share a common interest or major and allow those students to take a select group of courses together.

Pre-Registered

Students will be pre-registered for their Learning Community courses, and they will add one to three additional courses to build the rest of their schedule during Camp War Eagle.

Benefit to Specific Majors

We highly recommend Learning Communities for Pre-Architecture Summer Design, Pre-Building Science, Environmental Design and Pre-Industrial Design students.

Learning Community students are enrolled in: 

    • Success Strategies- UNIV 1150: a first year seminar focused on setting a path for success at the CADC and Auburn University
    • Between two and four additional core courses during their freshmen year (one or two in the fall and one or two in the spring). Exact classes vary from year to year, but always fit with major core requirements.

We believe that participation in a CADC Learning Community can assist you in making new friends at Auburn and help you to successfully transition from high school to college. Learning community students in the CADC report improved time management skills, study skills, and a better understanding of resources available at Auburn.
