The Informal University was designed to provide interesting and useful courses to students of all ages.  We offer most of our classes during evenings and weekends to better fit your busy schedule.  Courses are reasonably priced at an average of ten dollars per student hour.  We want you to be able to afford to learn something useful or fun without breaking the bank. 

Our classes are all selected with a few guiding principles in mind:

  • Will the knowledge you gain help you to be more self sufficient and independent?
  • Is it fun?
  • Will you gain more value from the class than it cost you to take it?
  • Can we match qualified instructors with interested students.

We are committed to providing the optimal education for your dollar.  If we don’t have a course that interests you, please recommend one.  Many of our best ideas come from our students; some would say that all of our best ideas come from our students.
