 Non-Traditional Student Representative

Coming to college for the first time, or returning after some time away, can be a very intimidating and scary idea for students. Trying to navigate the campus, knowing who to talk to about certain resources UNT provides, and getting into the groove of things in the classroom may seem stressful, and may take a bit of time for some. We have a Non-Traditional Student Representative to help you throughout your experience here at UNT, whether you're new and adjusting to life at UNT or counting down the days until graduation. Your non-traditional student represenative is available to answer any questions you may have or confide in about any issues you might be facing as a non-traditional student at UNT!
