Learning Communities
Through learning communities, you have a great opportunity to connect with other students who share your interests and get to know faculty.
Students who participate in a learning community earn higher grades and have increased exposure to university resources and the Lafayette community.
Over 3,000 first-year students and 1,000 current students who participate in learning communities every year! Don't be left out!
Applying to learning communities will occur as you complete your housing contract with University Residences. After accepting your offer of admission, allow up to two business days to gain access to the housing contract portal. There is an April 15th Priority deadline, and Learning Community application review will begin on that date. Purdue in Indianapolis students please review the Purdue in Indianapolis pages for your information.
The Data Mine application for 2025-2026 Academic Year for current Purdue students is now open. Click here to apply.
