The Truth About Online Degrees
By Kyle McBride
Online degrees. You've heard about them I'm sure. In today's fast
paced world it is becoming harder than ever to find the time to go
back to school, finish that degree, and get ahead in the workplace.
So you may have thought about enrolling in an online institution.
Good news my friend. Solutions for finally earning that ever-elusive
diploma have actually never been better! No matter how busy
your current schedule is. But there are a few things you should
know before getting your feet wet¡
Let me tell you a quick story. I have a friend named James. James
is a real smart guy that put himself through 2 years of college at
an away school, was pre-med, and then learned that his mother
had a rare autoimmune disease and she'd be bed ridden for the
foreseeable future. Well, James was an only child and his father
passed away when he was young so he was really the only
person that could take care of mom. He moved back home and
cared for his mother while getting a part time job as a vet's
assistant to keep the bill collectors off his back. All his dreams of
med school and finally becoming a doctor seemed hopeless.
Luckily for James, we are in the internet age. His mother, though
bed ridden, spent a lot of time online and never gave up hope that
James would one day be a doctor. She encouraged him to apply to
some "online distance schools" so that he could complete his
bachelor's degree and get into med school. Sure enough, after
only 15 months of distance learning with an accredited 4 year
University, James is now with a bachelor's degree and in his first
year of med school.
Now there aren't any online med schools just yet, but fortunately
for James his mother is doing better these days and she should be
able to see him achieve his dream after all.
How does this story have anything to do with you? Well, it just
goes to show that no matter how difficult your life may be, no
matter how little time you feel you have, as long as you have an
internet connection and the will to succeed, you can achieve your
goal of a college diploma.
You "go to class" whenever you can. Of course, going to class
means logging into the school's computers and receiving the
lesson plan for the week. Most online degree programs allow you
to complete the work at your own pace so you can do a years
worth of schooling in either 6 months or 24 months. It's up to you
completely.
Schools do have minimum targets that you must achieve but in
may instances they will construct a loose lesson plan for you to
follow throughout the course of your "year". You normally would
be allowed to enter "class rooms" (which are specific chat rooms)
to discuss class notes with both the professor and your other
classmates. All efforts are made to make your learning experience
either equivalent or better than traditional learning institutions.
Is the world of online degrees and internet learning for you? You'll
have to do your research to find out but the potential benefits of
this type of learning are truly endless.
