Senior Audit Program

The University of Denver's Senior Citizen Audit Program allows adults age 60 or older to audit select undergraduate courses. Availability is based on class size and permission from the instructor. Graduate level courses, foreign language courses, computer courses and courses at University College are not available for audit. The cost to audit is $150 (one hundred fifty dollars) per course.

Participants of the Senior Audit Program do not receive credit for auditing courses, and there will be no official record of participation in a course. These classes are designed for your own enjoyment. You will not submit homework and you will not be eligible for privileges associated with a student ID card (i.e. checking out library books, athletic facilities, etc.).
