You MUST be a current member of Osher to enroll in a class or event. No exceptions.
- Membership is nonrefundable, regardless of whether you are able to enroll in your desired course.
- You will no longer need a login (username and password) to register for classes and events.
- All class enrollments are online with a credit card on our secure server.
- Please be sure to register for each course at least two days prior to the start of the class session so that you can receive the email link that grants you access to it. You may register for a course that has already started any time, but you will pay the full price. Course fees are NOT prorated.
- The SCU Development office requires two business days to ensure that your payments have been processed and your profile shows that you have successfully paid for a particular course. If you miss the two-day cut-off, just send the OLLI office a copy of your email confirmation, showing payment has been made. We will forward the email link that grants you access to your class session.
- We strongly recommend that you do a trial run via Zoom prior to registering for a course so that you are familiar with it before the course begins. Our refund policy has NOT changed. Refunds are processed ONLY if you have a life-changing event that prevents you from participating in your online course.
Online Fall 2020 Courses:
- After you register for your course(s), you will receive an email link from your instructor or the OLLI office 24 hours before the start of your first class session. The link will grant you access to your class via Zoom. If you do not receive the email, please email the OLLI office at olliatscu@gmail.com and we will assist you.
