Otterbein offers adult students the flexibility to balance their academic programs with their personal and professional commitments. The options of day, evening and weekend course offerings allow students the opportunity to blend their education into a variety of schedules while enjoying the quality of our liberal arts program.

Course schedules for Autumn, Winter, and Spring are available in May. Students are encouraged to meet with their advisor in April, to develop a course schedule for the full year. Current students may begin registering during the month of May. New student may register June 1st.

For detailed information, please contact the Office of Continuing Studies at 614-823-1356.

Evening Classes
Otterbein understands that students need to fit their education into a variety of schedules. Therefore, the Office of Continuing Studies has developed its evening class times to accommodate these schedules. Our three-hour evening classes mix traditional teaching methods with learning-centered activities. You spend less time in class and more time outside of class doing research, reading, and learning the way you learn on the job.

Evening classes generally meet one or two nights per week. Classes scheduled one night-per-week meet from 6:15 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. and may have a first assignment to be completed for the first night of class. Students can check the "First Assignments" web page for first assignments or a course syllabus. Classes scheduled for two nights-per-week typically meet for two hours each night.

Weekend Classes
Weekend College at Otterbein offers you three class times which meet for four hours (six weekends during the ten-week quarter) or one class time which meets for three hours every Saturday for ten weekends, plus a final exam period. Meeting less frequently and for fewer contact hours than day and evening classes provides flexibility for the adult student while maintaining our academic quality. Students can check the "First Assignments" web page for first assignments or a course syllabus.

Students have the following options for Weekend College:

 Class Time I Friday, 5:30 p.m. - 9:40 p.m.
 Class Time II Saturday, 8:30 a.m. - 12:40 p.m.
 Class Time III Saturday, 1:00 p.m. - 5:10 p.m.
 Class Time IV  Saturday, 8:30 a.m. - 11:40 a.m. (every Saturday)

Day Classes
Nearly 50 majors and over 400 courses are available through day classes. Students find the modular format of our day-time schedules provide additional options in creating schedules that meet their personal and professional goals for completing their degree.
