OLLI SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at Northwestern University is designed for curious adults age 50+. We believe in equitable access to our programs, and all are welcome. We encourage you to apply for a partial or full scholarship if your situation would otherwise preclude your participation in OLLI.

OLLI scholarships provide the recipient with:
• 50% or 100% off of a full or half year membership.
• The opportunity to register for 1, 2, or 3 highly-engaging study groups per term, depending on your membership level.
• The opportunity to register for other exciting events by request (on a first-come, first-served basis), including noontime lectures and social gatherings.

INSTRUCTIONS: Please complete this form to the best of your abilities. We kindly ask you to submit your application at least 5 days prior to the start of registration to give us time for review and processing.
