The Exploratory Studies Village is for students entering the university who are undecided about their major. A year of guided inquiry and exploration, coupled with one-on-one sessions with their academic advisor, helps move students through the career planning and decision-making process. Students must be in the Exploratory Studies Program to participate. In this village, you will:
- Enjoy a location close to your academic advisors
- Live in Owen residence hall, which is exclusive for first-year students, upper-class mentors and resident advisors.
- Participate in unforgettable programs and traditions, such as Battle for the Beach, village mentor led socials, career exploration retreat, learning excursions, end of the year event and more
Location: Owen Hall
Required Courses: USC 101 and 102 (or USC 201 for Spring Connect)
