" Why we started the Adult Student Center: Going to college can be a daunting experience even for the best-prepared student. It involves a major life change as young students leave home and learn to survive in a new social environment. That's why there are so many resources for high school students and their parents to help them find and apply to colleges, get financial aid, and prepare them for their new lives.
For the adult student, many years removed from the academic environment, going to college represents just as big a challenge. The adult student may not have to leave home--in fact, many are turning to distance-learning programs taken in the comfort of their own homes--but the demands of college require significant changes in their personal and family lifestyles. And there are many differences in the adult student's college experience. " more
