UDOLLI uses a membership model that aligns with Osher Lifelong Learning Institute best practices. Reporting annual membership is a requirement connected to the Osher endowment that supports the program. The annual membership also helps identify active members while allowing participants to choose the terms in which they want to participate, rather than requiring one larger full-year tuition payment.

Annual UDOLLI membership is $40. A current membership is required before registering for UDOLLI seminars.

Membership allows you to register for UDOLLI seminars by paying the appropriate term fee. Once you have membership and the term fee for a term, you may register for an unlimited number of seminars in that term, subject to seat availability.

The standard term fee is $100 for Fall, Winter, and Spring. The Summer term fee is $50.

No. UDOLLI seminars are non-credit learning opportunities. There are no tests, grades, or academic credit. Members participate for the joy of learning.

• Access to register for UDOLLI seminars each term.
• Non-credit courses in topics such as history, literature, politics, art, wellness, technology, music, and more.
• Invitations to UDOLLI and Continuing Education opportunities.
• Access to special events, travel opportunities, and Osher Online opportunities when available.
• Access to selected University of Dayton community events and amenities.
• Opportunities to volunteer and help shape UDOLLI programming.

Yes. Your UDOLLI name badge serves as your program identification and may help with access to UDOLLI and related campus benefits. Wearing the badge is required to gain access to our facility which is designated a secure building. 

UDOLLI moved to a new registration system in July 2025. If you have not registered since that change, you may need to create a new account in the current system, even if you had an account in the previous system. You may use the same email address and password if you choose.

You may wait until registration opens, but it is strongly recommended that you create or test your account ahead of time. Doing this early makes registration faster and reduces the chance of account-access problems on registration day.

1. Sign in or create your account.
2. Go to Membership & Parking.
3. Add your annual membership if needed.
4. Add the appropriate term registration fee.
5. Add parking if needed.
6. Search for seminars and add them to your cart after registration opens.
7. Review your cart and check out.

You may pay one step at a time. Before registering for seminars, you will need the required membership and term fee either already purchased or in your cart, depending on your membership type. Life members, moderators, and UD faculty/staff retirees may have different term-fee requirements.

Yes. Once you add a seminar to your cart, your spot is held while you complete registration. However, the cart hold lasts for about one hour. Complete checkout before closing your browser or stepping away for too long.

The Add to Cart button may not appear until registration officially opens. If registration has opened and you still do not see the button, refresh your browser and make sure you are signed in. You will also need to ensure that you either have already purchased your annual membership and term fee or that they are in the cart prior to adding being able to add seminars to the cart.

Registration is complete after you review your cart, complete payment if required, and receive confirmation. If something looks incorrect in your confirmation or account, contact the UDOLLI office.

Members who drive to campus for in-person seminars should purchase parking for the term. Parking is not typically needed if you only participate in Zoom seminars or off-site experiences where campus parking is not required. Moderators teaching in the term will be awarded parking passes and do not need to purchase them.

Yes. Parking permits are paid each term.  UDOLLI does our best to keep the price of parking passes low. We incur a charge by UD Parking Services of $45 for each parking pass issue. We supplement these through program revenue so that we can only charge our members $15. 

Parking permits are provided at no charge only to those who are actively moderating in the upcoming term. If you moderated in a previous term but are not teaching in the upcoming term, you would need to purchase parking if you need it.

Contact the UDOLLI office before purchasing if you are unsure. Staff can help determine whether parking is needed for your seminars or membership type.

Start with the current UDOLLI catalog. Make a list of seminars you want before registration opens, including backup choices in case a seminar fills quickly.

Use the PDF catalog if you prefer the printed layout or want to print pages. Use the accessible text-only catalog if you use assistive technology or prefer simplified text. Use the electronic flipbook if you prefer an online magazine-style browsing experience.

No. The catalog is for planning. To register, sign in to the Continuing Education website, add membership and term fees if needed, then add seminars to your cart after registration opens.

Choose another seminar or look for a waitlist option if one is available. Planning backup choices before registration day is recommended.

Yes. After paying the required membership and term fee, members may register for an unlimited number of seminars in that term, subject to availability and schedule conflicts.

All moderators should choose annual membership. We will manually waive the term fee for all moderators with active benefits (have taught in one of the last four terms). If you are a former moderator and are not sure if you have current benefits for a free term, please reach out to the office.

Again - there is only one annual membership going forward. You should choose the regular annual membership unless you are a retired UD faculty or staff member.

Moderators may receive a four-term discount that covers term fees. If you are unsure whether the benefit applies to you, contact the UDOLLI office before checking out.

Moderators should use the Moderator Resources page for training materials, roster guidance, accessibility resources, seminar planning materials, and other support documents.

Please review the Registration Tutorial first. It walks through account sign-in, membership, term fees, parking, seminar selection, and checkout.
