Online degrees

Online degrees have become very popular over the past few years. The flexibility and convenience it offers proves to be enticing. Although online learning may not be the right fit for everyone, so far it has been for me. I completed my Associate degree with University of Phoenix but am currently earning my Bachelor degree with Florida Tech. Choosing a University to attend can be overwhelming and it is necessary to do a lot of research and comparison. An important thing to be aware of is once enrolled assignments can be a lot more work than expected. Many universities require a certain amount of log in times and replies to classmate discussions per week. Also, some professor do not allow you to work ahead but only allow that you complete the work assigned for that week. No late assignments are accepted and the words "extra credit" are usually non existent. So if you decide to go on the online learning journey keep in mine this is not an easy ride, it just allows you to learn from the comfort of your home.
