But not everyone’s excited, especially those who prefer the buzz and excitement associated with conventional colleges. If you are on the fence about joining an online program, here are a few things to help you decide. Are you self-disciplined? Are you a stickler for deadlines? Are you someone who easily gives in to temptation? Online learning is not for procrastinators. Most online programs follow a rigorous schedule. You cannot afford to miss assignment deadlines – even missing one due datecould have a domino effect. Of course, you can always ask friends, can you do my homework, but you cannot rely on them for the entire course. Are you self-motivated?

Nothing is ever done out of the blue – everything, including the quiz schedule, is planned ahead. Successful online students are highly motivated. They do not mind the humdrum of online learning. To manage the boredom that occasionally creeps in, they join course related forums and discussion posts. Some of them even take up virtual group studies.

If you are one among the former group people, sign up for a short-term course to help you navigate technology and understand the internet. Are you an independent learner? Universities offer plenty of support for students by way of student relationship advisors and counselors. The instructor too is easy to help. But they usually have fixed working hours. Tough luck if your study hours do not coincide with their office hours. You can, however, lookfor help online. There are plenty of websites offering to explain things in detail. And if you’re still confused, hire an online class help tutor. Can I really pay someone to take my online class? Yes, you can! Resource Box: The Author manages a take my online class website.
