Missouri State expands MSU62 to include online classes.

July 7, 2021 by Katherine Whitaker

Smiling senior citizen in a pink hat chats across the table with another woman at MSU 62's registration event. Missouri citizens age 62 and older can now log into MSU’s virtual classrooms.

The MSU 62 program now includes online courses. Missouri State University’s Adult Student Services offers MSU 62, a program offered for senior citizens to take classes tuition-free. As the name suggests, students must be at least 62 years old to participate.

Both tuition and student services fees are waived for program participants. At MSU, in-state tuition costs $257 per credit hour. The cost of student service fees varies. While tuition and the student services fees are waived, students will need to pay for books, parking passes, textbooks, special course fees and any other supplies necessary.

Students are admitted to the university as non-degree seeking students. Classes can be taken for credit but cannot count towards a degree. When enrolling, advisors suggest students know the required prerequisites for a class and check if seats are available. Most departments are willing to work with the program to find a place for students. Check the catalog for course offerings. Use the class schedule search tools to discover when and how classes are offered. 

Popular course topics include:

  • MUS 178 Community Band
  • Foreign languages, including French, Italian, and Spanish
  • Art 225 Painting I
  • Art 223 Metals and Jewelry I 

Requirements 

  • students will need to pay for books, parking passes, textbooks, special course fees and any other supplies necessary.
  • classes cannot count towards a degree.
  • students must be non-degree seeking students.
  • seats must be available for the class.
  • students must be a Missouri resident. 

Ready to register for MSU 62?

Register for MSU 62 online. Registration is online-only (there is no in-person event this fall). Online registration begins on Thursday, August 19, at 9:00 a.m.
