Perpetual student
A perpetual student, also known as professional student, is a college or university attendee who re-enrolls for several years, typically more than what is necessary to obtain a given degree. Reasons for such behavior include time constraints (inability to devote full-time to studies), indecision (changing one's major one or more times), the inability to find a job, or simply the pursuit of more than one degree. Oftentimes, there is no goal of either degree or major. This term can have either a positive or negative connotation, depending on the person and circumstances.
