Students may enroll in one or more classes.
Tuition is per semester.
Textbooks and reading books must be purchased by the student unless arrangements are made with the instructor to have the books purchased and available on the first day of class. In that case, the cost of the books will be added to the tuition.
Students are expected to arrive on time to class, prepared to learn. This means all homework assignments are completed, and the student has his or her textbook and supplies.
Classes meet once a week unless otherwise stated and are year-long classes.
Individual class information is posted on its specific page on this site.
For more information or to enroll, email Lori Beckstrom at lori.lifetimeoflearning@gmail.com.

Students who enroll in Lifetime of Learning Classes need access to a computer. A blackboard-style program is used to post course syllabi and some course content. Additionally, students will need access to a computer for research purposes and to type essays.
While much of the homework is completed offline and much of it may be completed on paper with pencil or pen, some homework does require the use of a computer.
