Continuing Education courses are designed for adults, 18 years or older. Some courses are designed for a younger audience; these classes are the only exceptions to the age restriction. Senior citizens (65 years and older) can enroll in certain Continuing Education open enrollment courses without payment of tuition, if space is available. Qualifying seniors must still pay all applicable fees.
