Michigan Learning Communities are very popular programs
for incoming students. Admission to the residential programs
is selective, and space is limited. All new, first-year students
have an opportunity to apply to one or more of the MLC programs,
but we cannot guarantee admission.
If you are admitted to a residential program, University
Housing will assign you to a residence hall space reserved
for participants of that program.
While you are expected to place a high priority on academic
pursuits, you will also be encouraged to take full advantage
of the special offerings and services of these residential
learning communities, the intent of which is to maximize educational
opportunities. You are also expected to be a willing partner
in developing and maintaining an environment conducive to
the academic pursuits of all program participants.
PROGRAMS WITH ADMISSION BY APPLICATION
If you're applying to the Adelia Cheever Program, Health
Sciences Scholars Program, Lloyd Hall Scholars Program, Max
Kade German Residence Program, Michigan Community Scholars Program,
Michigan Research Community, or
Women In Science and Engineering Residential Program:
Complete the Michigan Learning Community (MLC) application and essay question section of your online Housing application, which you will receive access to once you have paid or have waived your enrollment deposit. A sample essay question that may be asked is: "How do you think your intended academic plans will be enhanced by participation in your first-choice Michigan Learning Community? Include both what you hope to gain from and contribute to the program."
Return the MLC application, essay, and your completed residence hall application at the same time.
Beginning in May, the MLC that admits you into its program will
directly communicate to you your admission status.
The University Mentorship Program and Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (non-residential) will mail you an application beginning in May.
If you are applying to the Residential College (RC), you should
indicate your interest on the undergraduate admissions application.
However, if you have already applied and been admitted to LSA,
did not check off the Residential College, and now want to be
admitted to the RC, you must contact the RC directly. Placement
in the RC is on a first-come, first-served basis.
Note: If you want to live with a specific individual,
both of you must apply to -- and be admitted to -- the same
MLC.
Submit
your applications in together. Some programs may not
consider roommate requests.
PROGRAMS WITH ADMISSION BY INVITATION/APPLICATION
The Comprehensive Studies Program and Honors Program will
extend invitations to students. Based on the student's confirmation
of the invitation, the respective program will admit him or
her.
If you were not invited but would like to be considered for admission to Honors, you may request a review in writing. For details please review the admissions information at the Honors website. Students invited to the Honors Program are eligible to apply to live in Honors housing; spaces are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
