Hey, guys, I just got a question out of curiosity:
I noticed that on my application page, the school provided the average applicants' stat, including experience hours. The average total experience time (EC activity, health-care activity, community service, employment) adds up to 7613 hours (those hours don't overlap, at least for me). For a traditional student with four years of college, that's a full-time job on top of being a full-time student. Did I get it wrong or are there a huge amount of non-traditional students who significantly pulled up the average?
I don't know how those numbers fit together (I haven't seen or heard those statistics personally but that's not saying much), but we do have a large number of non-traditional students. I had 8 years of full-time employment before I started at OSU last summer. Lots of students with 1 or 2 gap years. Several of us here as a second profession. Still many traditional students too, though. And a couple of very brave 3+1s. I think it's a really good mix.
