College Online Education

I want to complete my basic college classes online but dont know of any GOOD sites please help! Also i havent been to school sense 2003 so i need some refresher courses where can i find these?

If there is a community college in your area check with them. Most colleges now offer internet courses. I wouldn't just search around the internet looking for college classes online. Make sure that the college campus is near where you live so that if you need the extra help you can go see the instructor; that is the only way to do good in a class like that.

Have you been considering enrolling for some sort of retaining or online degree program? How ever you’re not 100% sure on all the terminology used when it comes to the different programs available? Not a problem, it can seem like the distance learning schools are trying to confuse us, how ever in reality all they’re doing is giving a wide array of options for us to choose our online programs from. This article is to provide a brief overview of associate online degrees, what they are, why you would consider one, and what you should do next.

Simply put an online associate degree is awarded from the institution of choice after the completion of a two year period of course work. Generally the degree is either Associate in Arts (AA), the Associate in Science (AS), or the Associate in Applied Science (AAS). The degree may be taken via an online distance learning school, and also off line campuses and community colleges. What is the purpose behind an associates degree?

Many people after completing an associates degree via distance learning go on to find a great job and start their career. This is especially so when the associates degree falls under some form of vocation. How ever, the other avenue that many take with their associates degree is to move into a full blown undergraduate bachelor degree in their area of study.

Enrolling for an online associates degree with an online college is a great way to test the waters with a particular subject without having to commit to becoming a full time student. You’re able to keep your current job, maintain employment and a paycheck while you study on your own terms. The worst thing that happens is you become more qualified to work in the area of your studies. Of course the next step you can take is enroll in an online degree program at the same or a different school and complete your bachelor degree in your area of study.

Another reason you might find it worth while to enroll in an associate degree program is if you are already trained or have completed a degree in another area of study. For instance if you currently have a business degree, but can justify why it would be worth while having an associate in science degree because of your area of work you’re able to enroll and complete the program with out the stresses of being enrolled full time in an undergraduate degree program. Many find that it’s an excellent way to learn new transferable skills in a new area, but in a shorter time frame.

If you’re sold on the idea of considering an online associate degree your first step should be to request free information from a school offering the program you’re interested in. A simple search with your favorite search engine should yield hundreds of results. Remember because your degree will be done via distance learning there is no need to enroll in a local school. You can take classes from any school in the country. So what are you waiting for? Get started today, classes start often, so you could be enrolled and studying as soon as next month.

I am doing my classes full-time online and need a good computer but can’t afford one. Are there any grants or anything that will help me get one? I

You can get a new computer for about $500 at dell.com. Just request a catalog and you’ll see what I mean. They always have a $500 deal on some desktop. I got mine for $500, complete with monitor!

If you’re going to an online college, I hope you’ve applied for FAFSA and the PELL Grant. It won’t help you get money for a computer, but it will help you with tuition which will free-up money to buy a computer.

If you’re already signed-up for online courses but not currently attending,where did you sign up? Did you do it at a library? A local Community College? If so, you may need to use those computers until you get more money in.

Or, you could always get a part-time job long enough to buy one of those $500 Dell’s.

Good luck!

any one with experience in online college classes what is your advice plz.

I've taken a lot of online classes and my biggest warning to you is to keep in mind THEY ARE NOT EASIER! There's an expectation that things online are easier than in a classroom, and that is not the case. The reality is that without a classroom lecture and without a teacher in front of you, many subjects are harder online. You need to be able to learn on your own from reading the textbook or whatever is assigned.

The upside to online classes is you can do the work at whatever time of day you choose. There are still deadlines though, so you have to watch those carefully.

If you've never done an online class before, I'd recommend signing up for just one. And make it a subject that you are very strong in. If you are having difficulties with the online format, don't be afraid to drop the class early and try to get into a land-based class instead. Some people adapt well to the online classes and some never get the hang of it, and their grades suffer as a result.

Myself, I love the online classes, and I take them whenever I can, but only for easier subjects. Some things I will not do online, like anatomy and physiology, or calculus. Those things are just too complex in my opinion.
