Adult & Non-Traditional Students
We recognize adult learners as valuable members of the VCU community, and we're here to offer support through every step of the academic journey. Whether you're applying to college for the first time or only a few credits away from graduation, we'll give you the tools you need to successfully complete your bachelor's degree.
Who are adult learners and non-traditional students?
Adult learners are undergraduate students who are 25 years old or older when they start their education at VCU.
Non-traditional students are students who are married/widowed/divorced, have children/dependents or who are military-affiliated (veteran/active duty/reservists).
