We are excited to announce the Non- and Post-Traditional Student Community Group (NPTCG) Winter 2027 Kickoff Event happening on Friday, January 14, 2027, from 6-8 PM, in the LSA Multipurpose Room (LSA 1040)!

This special, kid-friendly event is designed to create a welcoming and supportive space for non-traditional students (those 24-years or older; returning to education after a significant break; part-time students; those balancing education with other significant life responsibilities such as being a parent/guardian/caretaker; nontraditional completion of high school education; military veteran; or was in the foster-care system 13-years old or older, experiencing home insecurity or family structure) and post-traditional students (those who might have started their academic journey later in life) while they pursue their education at U-M.

If you identity with any one of these identities, this event is a great chance to:

Enjoy free food and swag 🎉
