Abstract
The research examined the status of adult education in University of Benin, Benin City as a course of Study. The population consisted of students from the Department of Adult and Formal Education, Faculty of Education out of which 100 samples were chosen for the study. Four research questions was generated for the study which sought to know the student level of awareness of adult education among students admitted into the University of Benin, their perception of adult education as a course of study, whether they choose Adult Education as a course of study, and the challenges students face during their course of study. A self-designed questionnaire was used to elicit responses from the respondents. The response was analysed using SPSS. The findings reveal that because students were ignorant of what adult education is all about, students are lethargic to it as a course of study. The study among others recommended that adult education should be made a prerequisite course for students as adult education is a course for all time personal as well as national development
