Read the latest adult learner motivations results to learn the priorities and expectations of older students

Adult learners (students who are 25 or older) are increasingly becoming a larger segment of the college student population. What are their motivations and attitudes as they begin college? How do they differ from traditional-age students?

RNL looked at data from 4,000 incoming adult learners who took the RNL College Student Inventoryâ„¢. These are from adult learners in traditional environments (such as in-person classes), and the findings present a window into their expectations, goals, and challenges as they enter college.
