The Business Living Learning Community consists of first-year students who are engaged in the first-year curriculum of the Walton College of Business and several co-curricular activities.

This type of community provides a close working relationship among students and faculty through structured academic and social events each month. This involvement will not exceed 2 hours per week.

Students in this LLC frequently study and discuss coursework in their residence hall.

Interested in Greek Life, too? Just like many of our current LLC students, you can fully participate in both experiences — you may have to strategically manage your time!

Students may not participate in both the Walton College Honors Program and the Business LLC, but students can participate in Walton Honors during their sophomore year.

It is located in Founders and Humphreys Halls.
