Scripps College of Communication
What to Expect
As part of a Scripps College of Communication Learning Community, you'll have the opportunity to connect with other students who share the same academic interests. You'll not only receive support from faculty and Learning Community Leaders, but you'll forge connections that extend beyond the classroom.
Class Schedules
As part of your Learning Community, you'll take clustered classes. Taking two or more classes with members of your Learning Community ensures you'll know a few friendly faces and have a built-in study group.
