Business Living & Learning Community

Rider’s Business Living and Learning Community helps to ease the transition from high school to college by connecting you with a community of students, faculty, staff and corporate professionals. In the Business LLC, you'll meet fellow classmates who share similar interests and have opportunities to learn about your subject area through guest speakers, field trips and community service activities.

First-year students in the Norm Brodsky College of Business are invited to be part of a cohort model where they live together and attend several of their freshman level courses together. Current cohorts include business honors, business administration, marketing and sport management majors. There is no additional cost associated with joining a living learning community. All costs are covered under standard room and board.
