Synopsis

The statistics come as a total surprise to most: 45 percent of college and university students do not enrol directly out of school. Many are part-time students, people who are returning to school after life intervened, or otherwise 'nontraditional' learners-and this segment is growing. Back to School is the first book to look at this population of 'second chancers', in a work that Make magazine calls 'optimistic yet simultaneously realistic.'
