The Washington University Prison Education Project (PEP) offers a college education to incarcerated students at the Missouri Eastern Correctional Center (MECC) in Pacific, Missouri, and the Women’s Eastern Reception, Diagnostic and Correctional Center (WERDCC) in Vandalia, Missouri.
CAPS, previously University College, offers adult students the opportunity to earn a degree at WashU. The program is committed to providing an education and career pathway for St. Louis learners who have previously not had access to Washington University.
The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) is a membership community designed for curious learners aged 50+. Learners in the program can take courses, as well as participating in special interest groups, lectures and events. Membership is just $10 per year and includes about two dozen events. Course fees are modest, and scholarships are available.
