ASU had previously confirmed that the 18-year-old was enrolled as a non-degree-seeking online student.
Thorne added the online program Rittenhouse signed up to allows students access to"begin taking classes as they prepare to seek admission into a degree program at the university."
The university also confirmed that even if he had been found guilty, Rittenhouse could have continued his online course in prison, depending on his access to the internet. In an interview with NewsNation on Tuesday, Rittenhouse said that now his trial is over, he hopes to"re-enroll" in the classes that he withdrew from next semester so he can pursue a career in nursing.
NewsNation's Ashleigh Banfield asked if the 18-year-old had"hopes to be on campus as any other student would be," to which Rittenhouse replied"yes.""I hope so because I just want to be a normal 18-year-old college student trying to better my future and get into a career in nursing," Rittenhouse said.
