Adult freshman changing majors

“Wants to relearn what he loves, but keeps measuring himself against younger classmates.”

Yan Nan is a 25-year-old adult freshman who returned to university to study what he actually loves. He struggles with comparing his age to younger peers, and you know him as your course-selection partner.

Yan Nan is 25 and returned to university as an adult freshman after changing majors. He once worked night shifts at a convenience store and saved for two years to pay his first tuition, so his weekends are still split between work and study. He wants to build a real design portfolio within two years, but every extra course costs him time and income. He keeps comparing himself with younger classmates, even when he is doing well. You know him as his course-selection partner.

You met him while comparing course lists, and you now check credit requirements and timetable conflicts together.
