Your Place As An Adult Student

Unlike many schools, Wittenberg does not classify students according to the time of day when they attend classes. Instead, we have established the classification adult/non-traditional student. People in this classification are free to take courses in any part of the schedule that suits them - and to mix Evening/Weekend and Day courses in any combination they wish. And they can study part-time or full-time.

Here are the guidelines:

23 years of age or older (but see below)
not a full-time traditional student within the last two years
not holding a student visa

Persons who do not meet the first two guidelines but whose circumstances would normally place them in a category outside the concept of “traditional student” may appeal to the Dean of SCE. These circumstances include full-time employment and parenthood.
