FREE WORKSHOPS TO ASSIST ADULTS
 PURSUING HIGHER EDUCATION

	CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., Oct. 10 -- Area residents can learn
how to enroll in University of Virginia courses by attending free,
informal workshops this fall.
	The workshops, which will describe the Citizen Scholar
Program in U.Va.'s Division of Continuing Education, will be held at
12 noon on Oct. 14 and Nov. 2 and at 5:30 p.m. on Nov. 7 in Room F
at the Zehmer Hall Conference Center, 104 Milmont Lane.   
	The Citizen Scholar Program allows adults to enroll
part-time in courses offered by most schools at the University.
Students who enroll in the program usually have completed either a
bachelorÕs degree from an accredited institution or two full years
of college coursework.
	ÒAlthough the program does not grant degrees, Citizen
Scholars can achieve professional and personal goals by taking
courses in a variety of subjects,Ó said Carole McIvor, coordinator
of the program.
	The workshops will give prospective students an overview of
how to enroll in credit classes on-Grounds and present information
about other resources for adults at U.Va.
