INTERESTING COURSES

Membership in OLLI entitles you to increase your knowledge and explore new interests by enrolling in courses offered in the fall, winter and spring term Curriculum Catalogs. The catalog is published a month prior to the start of each term and lists of courses are also posted on our Web site.

A wide range of courses are offered each term. They include such areas as art, computers, economics, entertaining, finance, foreign affairs, foreign languages, gardening, health, history, hobbies, indoor games, investing, literature, music, nature, psychology, religion, science, sports, theater and writing. To view descriptions of typical courses see the Curriculum Catalog. See Course Update Information for a course listing.

Most classes are held on the UAH campus and are usually 90 minutes in length. They meet once each week for six to eight weeks.

Courses offered through our Curriculum Catalog have a term fee set by and paid to the UAH Division of Continuing Education.
