Span Plan Adult Student Services
The staff of the Span Plan Adult Student Services Program is committed to assisting and encouraging adult, nontraditional students at Purdue University. The definition of a Purdue University adult student includes any undergraduate student meeting one of the following three criteria:
- A student who experienced a minimum three year break between completing high school and attending higher education
- A student who experienced an interruption of two or more years while pursuing higher education
- A student who is married and/or a parent
The program, based on the belief that learning should be a lifelong endeavor, provides services that positively impact the personal, academic, and career success of each adult student. In support of this belief, the Span Plan Adult Student Services program is dedicated to working with all students in order to:
- Encourage exploration of individual abilities and strengths that contribute to life and career satisfaction
- Promote personal, academic, and professional development
- Connect adult students to the wealth of resources that facilitate success at Purdue University
- Support adult students as they strive to meet their educational and career goals
Please take time to review the Span Plan website for an overview of services the program provides for adult nontraditional students at Purdue.
