Abstract
Although enrollment of nontraditional students in higher education is skyrocketing, the failure rate of these students is staggering. They come to a university full of fear and misgivings for a variety of reasons, and it keeps them from succeeding. Referencing the neuroscience of fear, this article offers practical strategies for university educators that will help nontraditional students, not only succeed but also flourish in higher education.
