ANDers have a lot going on.

They are professionals AND parents AND servicemembers AND students AND so much more.

They’re not just one thing.

​

They’re balancing work, family, and life—all while chasing a degree. They represent millions of Americans who once started college but had to hit pause. In fact, over 43 million adults have stepped away from higher education at some point—not because they gave up, but because life kept going. 

These are the faces of higher education. Determined. Resourceful. Resilient.
It’s time we reimagine how education fits into real lives.

Because when ANDers succeed, their families, their workplaces, and their communities succeed too.

Let’s be the difference makers, and change the game in higher education!
