Keep your mind active

It’s never too late to study a subject that has always fascinated you—or even investigate something new, like music, philosophy, art history or politics. There are dozens of benefits of learning as you get older: you’ll improve your memory, health, mood and more.  

Study at your own pace

We offer a wide array of intellectually rich courses each year. You can take courses for the joy of it, or work toward the goal of a certificate. Flexibility and variety are two key characteristics of our Liberal Arts for 55+ Certificate.

Is our Liberal Arts for 55+ Certificate for you?
