Each fall and spring semester, the Adult Student Services Office holds a registration event for eligible Missourians to register for a single class free of tuition. We’re pleased to share that for the Spring 2025 semester, MSU 62 registration will be held virtually on Thursday, January 9, 2025.
Weather in the Ozarks can hard to predict in the spring. In efforts to keep participants, volunteers, and staff safe we have decided to conduct registration 100% online.
Who can take a class?
Those eligible to participate in MSU 62 are:
- A Missouri resident (living in the state of Missouri for 12 or more months)
- Aged 62 or older
- Nondegree-seeking student
- Enrolling in either undergraduate or graduate courses (if postbaccalaureate)
- Not able to apply this waiver to intersession, special courses, noncredit, or off-campus courses
Do I have to pay anything?
The MSU 62 fee waiver covers the cost of tuition and student service fees. However, students are still required to pay special course fees, required textbooks and course materials (including digital materials). Students are able to take classes online or in-person. If your class is taught in person, you will also be responsible for purchasing a parking permit.
How will I register?
At 9:00am on January 11th, a form will be posted to the MSU 62 website for you to submit. Shortly after you submit your form you will receive an email confirming that your form has been received and submitted. Forms are not processed automatically. These forms are manually reviewed and processed by our staff in the order that they are received; typically, you can expect an email confirming your admission and registration within 1-2 business days.
The online registration form will be available until 2:00pm on Friday, January 17th.
The form has three pages:
| Page 1: MSU 62 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF GUIDELINES | Page 2: MSU 62 NONDEGREE-SEEKING COURSE ENROLLMENT FORM | Page 3: MSU 62 AUDIT REQUEST |
| Strongly encouraged to review so that you understand the program guidelines and limitations. | This is where you’ll provide general information about yourself and the specific course you’re looking to take. | If you do not wish to receive academic credit (i.e., a grade) for your course and wish to take it leisurely, then you may complete this page to have for course audited.
If you wish to receive academic credit for the course, leave the text boxes blank and only sign the signature box at the bottom of the page. |
What class can I take?
Registration is subject to seats available and completion of prerequisites. You can explore the course offerings through the online Class Schedule Search. You may filter by a variety of fields, although it is not necessary to enter any filtering criteria. We recommended including the following fields:
- Subject: enter if known
- Leaving blank will show all available subjects
- Modality: Traditional for seated sections, Internet-Other for online
- Campus: Springfield, MO
- Check the “Open Sections Only” box
The Religious Studies and Gerontology programs are asking you to consider two of their offerings this spring. Read more on our blog: MSU 62 Course Highlight.
We hope that you’ll take advantage of this wonderful opportunity!

You list Thursday, January 11 2025 as the registration date. In fact, it should be Thursday, January 9 2025. Thank you
