Life/Work Experience Counts

Memorize This Equation: Experience = Confidence.
Many returning students think they won't be able to keep up with "regular" students. Not so! First off, there's no such thing as a "regular" student, especially if you think that means younger! But there's more to it:

  • Learning occurs in all areas of life, not just in school
  • Confidence is a strong predictor of success
  • Returning students are often more focused

The time you spent away from school may not have been focused on academics, but rest assured - your brain doesn't go on hold!


Get Credit for What You Know
You may not believe it, but what you've learned while working or raising a family will help in the classroom. It could even put you at an advantage.

With the CLEP testing program, thousands of colleges grant credit to students who demonstrate what they've learned in a wide range of subjects. All it takes is a 90-minute test and you're on your way!
