Senior Citizen Enrollment

PSU waives tuition for courses audited by an Oregon resident 65 years of age or older if:

  1. space is available after degree-seeking students have registered
  2. the instructor or department approve, and
  3. the auditing student is a non-degree-seeking student and is registered for 8 or fewer credits per term.

One-time administrative fees (e.g., $25 for program enrollment) and additional course-specific fees for materials and online access may apply. Registration, advising, and enrollment support are provided through the Senior Adult Learning Center (SALC).

The tuition waiver does not apply to courses with Restricted Differential Tuition. Seniors taking classes for credit pay tuition according to the established tuition schedule.

SALC receives no direct financial support from either the State of Oregon or PSU. The program relies on charitable contributions from Senior Auditors and other friends of SALC.

For further information, please email SALC (salc@pdx.edu) or visit the SALC website (www.pdx.edu/senior-adult-learning-center).
