Be a Nontrad!
I myself went back to school after a break. There were a lot more non-traditional students there besides me. That surprised me!
And something else surprised me - I made some much younger friends while I was there.
I made a Non-Traditional Student website to help other nontraditional students. I also have a Non-Traditional Student Blog and a Nontraditional Yahoo group that is here.
There are many issues that non-traditional students deal with on a daily basis. Here are some of them:
1. Children and families
2. Paying for school
3. Time and jobs, and
4. Study skills.
Many schools have programs in place to help older students with these things.
The old adage that "you need to learn throughout your life" is never more true than today.
Oder students now have more opportunities to link up with other students like themselves. Check out the links here and below.
