Traditional student
This article is missing information about graduate students. (June 2026) |
A traditional student is a category of students at colleges and universities. Traditional students are contrasted with non-traditional students.[1][2]
In the United States, it is used to refer to undergraduate students under 25 years old who enroll directly from high school, attend full-time, and do not have major life and work responsibilities (e.g., full-time job or dependents).[3][4][5][page needed] Currently around 75% of undergrads have at least 1 nontraditional characteristic.[6]: 3 [7][8]
It is frequently observed that traditional higher education programs and policies are geared toward, and the outcome of, the previous era when traditional students were the main market for higher education.[9]
