Cooperative

Mission:
The mission of Commonwealth Terrace Cooperative is to maintain a safe, affordable housing community for University of Minnesota students and their families, where volunteerism, learning, leadership, trust and cross-cultural experiences drive a sustainable co-op culture.

Community:
The 464 families that reside at CTC represent people from throughout the United States and 70 countries from around the world. Therefore, the CTC community is made up of people from diverse cultural, racial, ethnic, and class backgrounds. For many new residents, living at CTC will be the most culturally diverse community in which they will ever live. This environment offers a unique opportunity to learning from and share with other residents. We strive to create a community atmosphere that promotes positive contact and mutual respect of all individuals. We hope that these experiences will enhance your learning experience at the University of Minnesota.
