Defining the college-age student is near impossible. The average age of a college student is around 26, while most people who start college never finish. But, we acknowledge a difference between the 18-22-year-old adult and those who are single in this age range. We define these singles as collegiate. Young adults are still defining themselves as adults, and statistically, many will find themselves single into their late 20s. Our focus at Table For One is for everyone to know they are Complete in Christ.
