Call for Proposals: 2027 AAC&U Conference on Learning and Student Success – Aug 14

Posted by American Association of Colleges and Universities on July 7, 2026

The call for proposals for the 2027 AAC&U Conference on Learning and Student Success (CLASS) is now open. Taking place March 10–12, 2027 in person at the Mohegan Sun Resort (near Mystic, CT) and online, CLASS 2027 will bring together educators and campus leaders from across higher education to exchange ideas, share effective practices, and build new connections.

This year’s theme, “Together by Design,” explores how intentional collaboration can strengthen learning and student success across higher education. The challenges facing higher education cannot be solved by individual courses, programs, educators, or institutions. These challenges require cooperation across disciplines and reporting lines, shared stewardship of resources, and strategic coordination to advance learning and strengthen institutional outcomes.

We invite you to submit a proposal that shares evidence-informed strategies, innovative practices, lessons learned, or research that can help institutions strengthen learning and student success. Whether your work focuses on teaching and learning, assessment, high-impact practices, AI, general education, student success, or career preparation, your perspective can contribute to this year’s conversation about how colleges and universities can work together by design.

Proposals are due by August 14.
