Theproblem is compounded when there is a lack of realization that these students have manyresponsibilities outside of schoolwork (Tyson, 2012).Yet, these students still enroll in college and universities for multiple reasons. A study found thattypical non-traditional students expect to utilize college for career preparation and were lesslikely to be focused on the social scene (Forbus, Newbold, & Mehta, 2011). Another study citeda personal desire to complete what they started, being a role model for their children, and thefinancial incentives to improve their economic situation (Bohl, Haak, & Shrestha, 2017).Providing a meaningful undergraduate experience to non-traditional students will go a long waytowards enhancing

These are required courses that many students do not perceive asessential to their career.
