GETTING CONNECTED AS A NON-TRADITIONAL STUDENT

Some of the sites listed on this page are networking sites I have recently found - and others help you or your group get on the web yourselves.

It helps a LOT to get connected as a non-traditional student - and here are some sites to get you started.

THE YAHOO NONTRADS GROUP - this group has nontraditional students in it from all over. They discuss how to juggle home and family responsibilities, which classes to take, how to find scholarships and grant money, and lots more. Just click here or click the link above to join.

FACEBOOK - I would advise all non-traditional college students to get on Facebook right away. It's a great place to link up with other students, and keep track of the students you are meeting while you are in school. Go here to see my Facebook page, and send me a request to be your friend there.

MYSPACE - Although this site started up as just a site for younger people, now more and more older people are joining because it's fun. there are a lot of things you can do to dress up your site, too. MySpace always brings in the newest technology and add-ons to make the site more fun.

DEL.ICIO.US - this is another great site where people share links. You can open this site when you first get online, and then "tag" interesting sites you like. You can also look at other people's del.iciou.us tags.
