Baccalaureate Honors Program Living and Learning Community

Rider’s Baccalaureate Honors Program (BHP) Living and Learning Community helps to ease the transition from high school to college by connecting you with a community of students, faculty, and staff. In the BHP LLC, you'll meet fellow honors students with a wide range of interests.

First-year students in the BHP program are invited to be part of a cohort model where they live together and attend several of their honors courses together. There is no additional cost associated with joining a living learning community. All costs are covered under standard room and board.

Benefits of joining the Living Learning Community:

• Helps to ease the transition from high school to college
• Develop key relationships at the start of your Rider journey
• Connect with peers who share your academic interests and also interact with those from diverse fields
• Personal interactions with faculty and staff advisors
• Peer mentorship from BHP ambassadors
• Networking and social events
