Yes! On our Tallahassee campus, check out the three LLCs that offer courses and other opportunities of value to any first-time-in-college student: Exploration & Discovery, Entrepreneurship & Innovation, and Global & Public Affairs. Five LLCs with special requirements or major-specific themes are also available; look for those if you're a first-generation college student, if you’re majoring in music, business, or engineering, if you're exploring nursing or another health profession, or if you're a woman majoring in math or science. Visit each LLC's website to discover which ones call your name, then apply for as many as you like. Applicants who are invited to more than one LLC at a time and who accept promptly may accept the invitation of their choice.

Any incoming first-time-in-college student may apply to one or more LLCs.

No. LLC residents pay no more than non-LLC residents for the same hall and room type. The most common room type in all LLCs, as in most on-campus halls available to new students, is a suite-style double with shared bathroom; the cost of this room type is fully paid for students who have an active Florida Pre-Paid Dormitory account.

In most LLCs, residents take one 1-credit-hour colloquium and one 3-hour course. In the colloquium, residents meet weekly to explore topics related to the LLC’s theme. The 3-credit-hour course is also theme-related and may fulfill a Liberal Studies requirement (courses required of all FSU students, regardless of major).

For the Music Living-Learning Community, selection is based on the student's audition to the FSU College of Music or the School of Theatre. For all other LLCs, selection is based on a brief online essay application.

In accordance with Florida State University's Academic Honor System, I pledge that my responses to the written portion of my application are my own work.
