Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about OLLI at DU
When it comes to membership and pricing, what is annual and what is based on each term?
An annual OLLI at DU membership fee ($65) can be purchased each August or thereafter. It is good for one academic year. A membership allows you to register for courses that can be used during that academic year (mid-August to mid-August).
How will I know how many courses I have purchased and used?
Courses purchased will be put into a member's account and can be used at any time during that academic year (August-May). Your personal online account balance will show how many courses you have left. There is no refund for unused courses
Will online courses have a different fee than in-person?
No. Online and in-person courses have the same per-course cost.
Will it be the same price for 4-6- and 8-week courses?
No. Your cost is determined by the number of weeks in the course.
Each 8 week course: $70
Each 7 week course: $65
Each 6 week course: $60
Each 5 week course: $55
Each 4 week course: $50
Will the annual membership fee be prorated if a person joins OLLI at DU perhaps in March instead of August?
No, the annual membership fee is effective mid-August to mid-August and will not be based on the time of purchase. That said, OLLI at DU will be offering significant benefits throughout the year, including summer webinars that more than make up for the fee, even if you join in March. To get the most out of your membership you should purchase it in August.
What if I move, can I get a refund?
We will not typically refund unused courses, but if there is a very special circumstance, please call and talk with us.
Is registration on a first come, first served basis?
Yes, registration will still be first come, first served, so please register for courses as soon as possible.
Is the $65 membership a yearly fee or per term?
The membership fee is annual and is good mid-August to mid-August. It includes Fall, Winter, and Spring terms, as well as Fall Recess and Summer Shorts.
Do facilitators get any additional benefits?
Yes, free classes are provided to facilitators. If you facilitate a class for OLLI at DU, you earn 3 free classes per class you facilitate. For example, if you facilitate one class per year, you earn 3 free class credits. But if you facilitate three classes per year, you will earn nine free class credits. We also offer an early registration option (three days early), so facilitators can have their first choice of classes. All facilitators will need to pay the $65 annual membership fee like everyone else.
