Higher education is evolving, and adult learners are at the forefront of this change. NerdWallet's recent article highlights the unique journeys of students like 28-year-old Alexander Foreman who re-enrolled at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo with the support of his ReUp Success Coach. “I understand how overwhelming and how daunting [going back to college] can be,” says Foreman, who credits his ReUp coach for helping him get back to school. “If there's one thing I could recommend, it sounds so simple, but honestly, just believe in yourself, take your time and ask for help.” Explore the full article: https://lnkd.in/ghUqQMFp #HigherEd #AdultLearners #EducationForAll

Don’t just cancel student debt. Make it pay off. 40% of student loan borrowers don't graduate, accumulating debt without the credentials needed for well-paying jobs, leading to struggles with loan repayment. ReUp’s CEO, Terah A. Crews, sheds light on the student debt crisis and the impact on adult learners and stopout students. Economic Impact ➡️ Debt-burdened students without degrees are not reaching their economic potential, hindering growth in cities, states, and the country. Economic Potential ➡️ Financially thriving individuals contribute to thriving communities. Returns on Investment ➡️ Policymakers need to support strategies that ensure students and the nation see returns on their investment in higher education. Value of Higher Education ➡️ 93% of graduates are better off financially than those who didn't attend college. Students without degrees are less likely to own homes, handle unexpected expenses, or feel financially secure. Re-engagement Strategies ➡️ Helping adults with some college, no credential return to school can address the completion and student debt crisis, enabling more learners to benefit economically. Learn more about strategies for better serving the some college, no credential population in the full article on Barron's: https://lnkd.in/ddzSBdjg #StudentDebtCrisis #HigherEducation #EconomicGrowth

Today's college students are not just 18-22-year-olds with minimal responsibilities. More often, they are adult learners over 22, attending college part-time, caregiving, and working at least 15 hours a week. Engaging these learners requires understanding their unique challenges and needs. Financial issues and life balance are the top factors influencing their decision to leave school, not poor academic performance or lack of motivation. At ReUp, we know how to reach and support these learners through tailored strategies that address their specific circumstances. Discover how we engage modern adult learners in our latest blog.

What happens when life takes a turn or introduces unforeseen challenges? For many adult learners, the academic journey is not linear. Unexpected life circumstances can derail an adult learner’s path toward completing their education, but that doesn’t mean that they can’t find their way back. Jose “Alex” Colon originally enrolled in college to pursue his passion for electrical engineering, but stepped away when a lung cancer diagnosis required him to focus on his health. After battling and beating lung cancer and serving as his mother’s caretaker over the last decade before she passed away, Alex faced several circumstances beyond his control, each shaping his outlook on life and his path back to college. With the support of ReUp, Alex re-enrolled in school and is now on his way to earning his electrical engineering degree, but his experience has meant so much more: “This journey back to school has been about more than just getting a degree. It’s been about finding myself again, and I owe a lot of that to the support I received from ReUp.” Read his full story: https://lnkd.in/g8VKTkr7 #Inspiration #EducationJourney #HigherEd
