The Institutes for Adult Learners are held three times a year on the Ohio University campus. These programs offer degree-seeking students the opportunity to earn credit, become acquainted with the campus and faculty, and participate in a residential experience with other nontraditional students. Courses are taught in intensive, one-week classroom formats supplemented by individual work before and after the Institute. Credit for each course is generally 4 quarter hours. Regularly enrolled students on any Ohio University campus may use Independent Study or experiential learning credit toward their degrees with their college's approval.
