Senior citizens are often interested in learning, either to keep their minds sharp or for additional income. It is often not advertised, but many colleges and universities offer free education for senior citizens. If you have a college or university in your area, contact the Registrar's Office and ask if there is a senior learning center, or if seniors may attend classes tuition-free. You can check on the internet, too, since several university websites show offers for free tuition for seniors.Even if you do not qualify for tuition-free education, you may be able to stimulate your brain and learn through adult education courses. These classes offer fun learning in subjects that are computer-related or even exercise. Some adult education programs offer dance courses or even antiques and collectibles courses. Some of these courses are very inexpensive, and are available through your community services.
We have an article about getting free education as a senior citizen that has other information for finding frugal or free avenues for learning.
There is more free learning available than the senior citizen has time. Use it and keep your mind sharp. Brain stimulation seems to prevent Alzheimer's, too. Stay healthy and happy with learning something new.
See you soon with more consumer fun.
