| Abstract | "I want to understand how they do this, and how can I?!" exclaimed a non-traditional aged student attempting to navigate a balance of her roles as a full-time employee and college student. Her exasperation was poignant. As her psychology instructor, I suggested that she may find some answers by conducting research with non-traditional students. This associate of science student conducted a qualitative study and identified four themes about non-traditional students: limited time available, a more comfortable connection with other non-traditional aged students on campus, established support system mostly off campus, and the pursuit of a degree is primarily to earn a higher wage. Insight from this study contributed to furthering her academic credentialing to become an education counselor helping others to navigate their academics while maintaining life balance. Additionally, there appeared to be an association between conducting undergraduate research which provided clarification for both academic pursuits and career path. (As Provided). |
