Membership Information
What It Means to Be an Osher Member
- One low annual membership cost of $35 per person. Your membership fee is not tuition and is not refundable.
- Varied opportunities to learn about and discuss the most interesting hot topics plucked from the headlines with well-regarded professionals in and out of the classroom setting.
- Choose your level of participation; take as many courses as you want so you can explore specific subjects that suit your interests and meet other like-minded mature adults.
- Please note:
- Individual fees apply for each program. Detailed program descriptions and fees can be found here.
- Because space in the LIFE Lecture Series and in Osher courses is limited, we encourage you to enroll early.
- If the course you request is full, your name will be placed on the wait list. Enrollment status (confirmed or waitlisted) will be noted on your confirmation.
