Check Your Calendar
Now's the time to review the confirmation notice(s) you received regarding the OLLI classes for which you're registered this coming term. Please compare the class schedule to your calendar to determine if there are any conflicts. If you decide to drop a class, promptly email the office with the course title and number, and put "DROP" in the subject line. If you will miss just the first session of a course but still want to take it, you must take action to avoid being dropped from a waitlisted class. Your spot will be given to a waitlisted member unless you email the office with the course title and number, and put "MISSING FIRST SESSION" in the subject line.  We wish we could provide you with a list of waitlisted courses, but this changes daily as members drop and add courses. NOTE: many classes still have space available. Check the online catalog.

Did you know? When the SOU campus in Ashland or Medford is closed because of heavy snow or other inclement weather, OLLI classes are closed, too. Local radio and TV stations typically provide announcements when this happens. Or, after 6:30 am, you may call to hear a pre-recorded message about closures for the Ashland campus (541-552-7672) and the Medford campus (541-552-8100).

Class Cancellations.
