<p>Stanford accepts a lot of "non-trad" students for transfer.
whats that mean?</p>
<p>NT refers to students who have not taken the typical route of going straight from HS to college. They are often older (last year S accepted a 40-50 yo woman) and have worked or gotten some other kind of experience (eg. military) before going/returning to college.</p>
<p>Over 24 is usually considered non-trad.</p>
