Is Distance Learning Right for You?
Before you consider taking classes as a distance learner, it's important to determine if you have the skills necessary for student success. These courses have the same rigorous curriculum as traditional on-campus classes. Online courses have the flexibility of time but your deadlines for assignments and readings for the week remain the same.
