If there are courses that still have space remaining, they will be made available for registration on our course registration page, on a first-come, first-served basis. Please look in the section above to find instructions on How To Look Up What OLLI Courses You Are Registered In. You can also log in to your DestinyOne account to view this information. See the course description to view the Maximum Class Size.Īt the end of the week, emails will be sent to all OLLI members announcing the courses they are now registered in. You can be fairly certain that you will be admitted to most courses that accept 200 or more students. If a course is oversubscribed, we run the lottery which randomly determines who will be registered. If a course is undersubscribed, everyone who is on the wait list will be registered. After the two-week registration period is over, we take down all courses, to process registrations. In order to accommodate our members who are not tech savvy, we created a registration system we call The Lottery in which there is no advantage to registering early and no disadvantage to registering later.ĭuring this period, when you register, you will join the wait list for the course. Registration for courses will be become available 4 or 5 weeks prior to the start of the semester (we will announce the exact registration dates on our homepage and send an email announcement to all OLLI members) and will remain open during the entire two-week registration period.

In 2007, TARP received a grant from the Bernard Osher Foundation, and changed its name to the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at Temple University. In 1998, the name changed to Temple Association for Retired Professionals (TARP), and later to Temple Association for Retired Persons. At that time, only two similar programs existed in the United States. There were 85 members and 34 courses in the fall of 1976. The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Temple University organized in 1975 and was known initially as Association of Retired Professionals (ARP). This includes support from Temple's Computer Services, Security, Facilities, Human Resources, and Accounts Payable departments, to name a few. Throughout the years, it has received substantial financial and in-kind support from Temple University. Although OLLI is co-driven by volunteers, it is a program of Temple University.
