Many of us are better writers than we are speakers, so distance learning will give us an opportunity to demonstrate one of our strengths. Computer Literacy Keyboarding and word-processing abilities are only part of what is required for distance learning. Whether enrolled in correspondence, mentored learning or online courses, students often need an understanding of operating system software and computer hardware and peripherals in order to successfully utilize available resources for research and study. In addition to computer literacy, certain equipment is required for online learning. All that is required to take a course with the College of Lifelong Learning is completed registration and payment of tuition and fees .
All courses are open to any college-age, adult or qualifying high school learner.
This includes students enrolled in other colleges and universities, individuals taking courses for professional development or personal enrichment, and high school juniors and seniors who qualify for our Head Start on College program. See Program Enrollment or page 4 of our printed catalog for additional details. We want learners to have the option of purchasing only the books they need or the materials they do not have access to. Thus, course materials are not included in the cost of tuition and students buy only what they need. It is best to order materials at the time of registration.
