Continuing Studies

Established in 1974, Otterbein's Continuing Studies Program is designed to meet the unique needs and special interests of adult learners. Some students are seeking to finish their degrees while others are beginning college for the first time. Many are interested in new careers or promotions, while others enroll in courses for personal enrichment rather than seeking a degree. With most students having family, career, personal, and community commitments, there is a need to fit their education into a variety of schedules. Otterbein offers very flexible scheduling through day, evening and weekend classes. Students can select from a variety of courses, fit those courses within one or more study options, and determine the rate they want to move through their program.

The Office ofContinuing Studies provides a variety ofservices that have been designed with the adult learner in mind: • admissions and registration • advising for new and currently enrolled students • assistance with financial aid • a strong transfer program • evening/weekend office hours • a variety of fee payment plans

Small classes, flexible scheduling, individual attention, accessibility, and a reputation for academic excellence all contribute to a rewarding experience at Otterbein.
