Residential Learning Communities
|
A Residential Learning Community (RLC) allows first-year UTA students to begin their college journey by living with a group of fellow first-year students who share their majors or interests. Freshmen blend their academic goals with their personal and social lives in RLCs. Students in these communities take at least one class with their fellow residents and get involved in unique experiences outside the classroom. Hands-on programs help participants explore potential careers, build valuable skills, and connect with the UTA, Arlington, and Dallas-Fort Worth communities in a meaningful way. If you’re in an RLC, check out the RLC Instagram page for events and news.
