Senior citizens over age 60 are also able to take up to three free non-credit courses at VCU every semester under certain conditions of the Senior Citizens Higher Education Program, I met several seniors in my courses over the years who took advantage of that. I've seen people in their early thirties ask on the VCU sub if other students would consider them "old" in undergrad courses, when there are people over twice their age already there and nobody ever cared or treated them any differently. If anything they just got more respect for attending purely out of curiosity or the pursuit of knowledge.
