Hi everyone, basically as the title is asking. I'm not sure if I am a non-traditional applicant because although I completed both a bachelor's and master's degree in Criminal Justice, a lot of my extracurricular activities are medically related. I also teach but am confused because of my other extracurricular activities such as scribing and volunteer experience. Just don't want to come off as a traditional applicant with the academic struggles I have faced along this path

The definition of non-trad has evolved over the years.
If you have had an intervening career since undergrad, you would be considered non-trad now.

Interesting, thanks! I’ve been substitute teaching high school level but that’s about it [emoji51]

At the admissions level, all applicants are held to the same standards. There is no distinction made between "trad" and "non-trad."
