Who is eligible?

Individuals 55 years of age and older are eligible. Participant's spouses of any age are welcome. Companions of age-eligible participants must be at least 50. Elderhostel welcomes people of all races, colors and religions.

During your Elderhostel program, you'll study diverse courses designed especially for Elderhostel. They are challenging and thought provoking, but don't require any prior knowledge or formal training, and you won't have to worry about homework, exams or grades. Besides daily classes, programs often include course-related field trips and evening activities.

Most Elderhostels at Berkshire Community College last 5 days and start either on Sunday or Monday evening. You'll stay at the Crowne Plaza Pittsfield. You'll share your experiences with classmates from a variety of backgrounds. Like you, they are not only interesting, but also interested in learning new things and sharing ideas.

While each of BCC's programs is unique, each week typically includes at least 20 hours of academic coursework.

At our off-campus accommodations rooms are usually double occupancy. However, there is an additional charge for a single room.
