Methods: For this study, a data was collected through an in-depth interview with a 75-year-old elderly woman who finished middle and high school and was a junior student at a university in Jeonbuk and then analyzed using case study research methods. Results: The results were as follows. First, the meaning of being a college student for the elderly participant was mainly related to herself, such as overall happiness, unexpected realization of a dream, an increase in self-confidence & pride, fun of learning, and being recognized as a social being because of her status as a college student. Second, the participant experienced personal changes after entering college such as physical & psychological vitality, a rise in mental health, and intellectual improvement, and family changes such as spousal support & stronger marital love, the support of children, and recognition from children & relatives. And the participant experienced changes in social relationship such as being recognized for her dual identity as both a college student and grandmother, disconnection from friends or neighbors, and inter-generational integration with young college students and professors. Third, the participant, as an elderly student, had difficulties in college classes such as a lack of computer skill and essay-oriented exam, and a deterioration of health and the burden caused by study and house-keeping.
