We hope this website will help you enter the world of Non-Traditional Students at SUNY Oswego. Currently one third of our students are returning adults, just like yourself.

What is a Non-Traditional Student?

Typically, a student is considered Non-Traditional if she/he has been away from school for a period of time, is working, lives off campus, and has family responsibilities. This definition has many variations. You may fit one of the categories listed or any combination thereof.

In Extended Learning our advisors have all been Non-Traditional students, so we know what is involved in adding school to the already full life you juggle now. Our advisors are all dedicated to helping you achieve your college degree.
