Non-Traditional Students and Transfer: A Focus on Military and Veteran Students

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Non-traditional students, particularly military and veteran students, pose challenges for universities to serve efficiently and well. For the purpose of this discussion, the non-traditional student is defined as one with a delayed entry to college after high school completion, who may bring time-management conflicts due to work and family commitments, and who may have a variety of transcripted and non-transcripted credits to consider for transfer or advanced standing.
