Abstract
Enrollment trends over the past few years have shown an increase in nontraditional students attending universities and colleges. While enrollment numbers have been on an incline, degree attainment rates have not been for this population. Academic Advising has been shown to improve the success rates of students. In this study researchers looked to see how synchronous virtual advising appointments have been perceived by nontraditional women. Additionally, this study illuminates the specific needs nontraditional women need from their advisors.
