Introduction

Today's college campuses are more diverse than those of years past. Predictions from the 2000 National Conference on the Adult Learner in Atlanta, Georgia, suggested that by 2003 nontraditional-age college students would account for 50% of U.S. college enrollment. Due to developmental differences and life demands, nontraditional students face different challenges from those of traditional students, and they encounter unique barriers. College counselors are, and will continue to be, faced with the challenge of providing services and programming to meet the diverse developmental needs of both traditional- and nontraditional-age students.( Philippe, 2000, 80)
