What makes WOU:Salem so ideal? These great features, to name a few:
- Hybrid evening courses (mix of in-person and online)
- Experienced instructors
- Relevant course options, including upper-division classes
- Affordable classes at a four-year public university
- Convenient location with free parking and two bus stops (find out more)
Whether you are a current WOU student or a working adult, WOU:Salem can improve your career. Check out the helpful information on this site to learn why there’s no better time to take advantage of this option.

“It’s difficult to drive all the way to Monmouth, being a working adult and having kids. Having classes in Salem makes it more accessible, both in the timing of the courses – in the evening – and the distance to get to class.”
