Continuing Education

Valparaiso University offers a variety of options for high school students through retirees to engage in coursework for credit, or non-credit learning groups, outside of the more traditional degree pathway

Continuing Education provides a pathway to complete undergraduate courses for academic credit as a non-degree student. This is a great option if you have a bachelor’s degree but need a few additional courses to prepare for graduate or professional school, or you want to take a course to keep up your professional licensure, or for purposes of personal enrichment. If you are a current student at another college seeking to transfer credit earned through Valpo back to the degree program at your current institution, please submit the undergraduate visiting student application instead.

The Senior Adult Growth through Education (SAGE) program provides a pathway for persons 60 and older, and/or retired, to audit undergraduate or graduate courses on a space-available basis at a special low tuition and fee rate.

Valparaiso Organization for Learning and Teaching Seniors (VOLTS) is a non-credit learning group for persons 60 and older. Programs may include guest speakers and lecturers, discussion of current events, and/or presentations by VU faculty or other professionals.
