Nontraditional student information


A nontraditional student is a term originating in North America, that refers to a category of students at colleges and universities. The term usually involves age and social characteristics. Nontraditional students are contrasted with traditional students.[1][2]

The NCES estimated that 73% of all undergraduates in 1999–2000 have a nontraditional characteristic.[3] This remained consistent the following years: 72% in 2003–2004, 72% for 2007–2008, and 74% for 2011–2012.[4]
