Martin Sheen is going back to school.

Reuters reports that the 66-year-old actor has enrolled in the National University of Ireland in Galway for a degree in English literature, philosophy and oceanography.

The news service says that the university confirmed that Sheen is enrolled, and is scheduled to begin courses next month.

Reports have circulated that Sheen has reportedly always wanted to finish his education when he retired from acting. The actor never graduated from high school.

He received an honourary degree from NUI for his acting and “his consistent and meaningful engagement with civil society.”
