Refunds: Sorry, there are no refunds on membership fees. The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at UCI relies on income from membership fees to be sustainable. For this reason, we will continue to follow our long-term policy of not offering refunds on membership fees.

We're sorry, but enrollments cannot be processed at the OLLI office at the Irvine Station.
Every effort will be made to accommodate your choices. Classes fill up quickly. You are most likely to get the courses you want the earlier you enroll, however, you may enroll anytime during the semester providing there is space in the course.

Special Events
Use either the Online Enrollment or the traditional enrollment process using the Membership/Enrollment form. In either case, it is best to first visit our Courses/Events page to determine which courses you would like to take.
Membership and course fees can be paid either by credit card or by check. Please make checks payable to UC Regents.
Retain a copy of the membership/enrollment documentation for your records. For those enrolling online you will receive an e-mail confirmation immediately. For all other enrollments you will be mailed a confirmation.
If you enroll and you choose a course that has reached its maximum enrollment you will automatically be placed on the waitlist for that course. Your confirmation will include both enrolled courses and waitlisted courses. You will not be automatically enrolled in your waitlisted courses if space becomes available. Waitlists are managed by the course facilitators. You will be notified by telephone or e-mail as space becomes available. You are encouraged to follow-up with the course facilitator. Contact information for all course facilitators is found in the OLLI catalog or on the Courses/Events page on the website.
If, after enrolling in a course, you find that you cannot attend, please notify the course facilitator promptly so that your place in the class can be filled by the next person on the waiting list. Contact information for all course facilitators is found in the OLLI catalog or on the Courses/Events page on the website.
If you choose to enroll online you will be notified immediately whether you are in a course or not, and receive an e-mail confirmation of course enrollment as part of the on-line enrollment process.
