We realize that adult students typically have different needs than the traditional 18-23-year-old student. We are eager to offer support to meet
those needs and help adult students gain a sense of belonging to the college.
Penn State's definition of an adult learner is a person who:
- is 24 years of age or older; or
- is a veteran of the armed services; or an active duty service member; or
- is returning to school after four or more years of employment, homemaking, or other activity; or
- assumes multiple adult roles such as parent, spouse/partner, and employee.
