| Abstract | Questionnaires were mailed to the directors of continuing education or special programs at 816 colleges and universities in the United States that were believed to offer programs for older adults. 84 percent of the 286 responding institutions reported programs for older adults; 1 percent had them in the planning stages; 3 percent had nontraditional programs that could be of interest to older adults; 3 percent had no organized program, but reported substantial annual enrollment of that population; 9 percent had no program and very limited enrollment of older adults. Three distinct types of programs emerged from the data collected: (1) tuition reduction, for credit and/or audit, in regular or continuing education courses; (2) courses integrated in the continuing education program that are designed to be of special interest to older adults; and (3) separate programs, distinct from the regular or continuing education programs. The enrollment and courses are described. Appendixes contain: the questionnaire; policies concerning tuition reduction; characteristics of type 3 programs; a list of courses taken by older adults in 1975-76; and the most popular courses among older adults.
