Welcome to OLLI

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) is a community of adults, who believe in lifelong learning, engagement and exploration. While OLLI's not-for-credit courses and workshops are designed for adults 50 and older, there is no age limit on membership, so if you find our programs attractive, we encourage you to apply! Our courses cover a wide range of topics, including art history, film, history, politics and economics, literature and language, and science. There are no mandatory exams, assignment or grades. We invite you to continue your journey of lifelong learning through our courses, lectures, and clubs.

Fall 2025 is right around the corner and you won't want to miss it! A 4-week course only costs $80 for current members. New member pricing is set at $64. Looking for more? Take unlimited OLLI courses this fall for $325 or save even more with our $800 Early Bird special for the entire academic year! We are also offering a range of Osher Online courses taught by experts from all over the USA. These 6-week courses are $90 each, but Session and Premium members get a $40 discount on each course.
