Program 60


An open invitation to open minds

General Information

The Ohio State University Office of Continuing Education (CEd) is committed to offering diverse, quality programs and services that create a desire for lifelong learning. One of those programs is Program 60, which is administered by CEd.

Ohio residents age 60 or older are invited to enrich their lives through experiencing the academic excellence and world-renowned research available at The Ohio State University. Each year, hundreds of Ohioans take advantage of this no-cost, non-credit way to be a part of the University community. Program 60 students sit in on all types of courses through Program 60 on a space-available, non-credit basis.

Special registration for Program 60 participants is held each academic quarter two weeks before classes begin. Mail-in registration is also available. Click here to learn more.

Program 60 Association
Many Program 60 participants are members of the Program 60 Association. The association offers lectures, a day trip, a picnic, peer interaction, and much more to its members. Many members give back to the University by volunteering for various campus events. Membership in the Program 60 Association is available for an annual fee of $3.
