  1. All That You Wanted To Know About Online College Online colleges are a perfect solution if you cannot afford to study through regular college. But there is a lot of misconception about studying through the internet. Some find it easy and some are overwhelmed by the experience. If you are planning to take up an online course, here’s what you always wanted to know: Online college requires self-discipline: It is easy when you are at home to kick your feet up and catch the latest movie on Netflix, but that is not going to help you earn your degree. It is very difficult having to constantly remind yourself about your priorities. Every time, you open a new tab, it takes a lot of self-control not to open a social media page, or catch the latest celebrity gossip. You have to stay on top of your coursework all the time: Most online courses allow you to skip semesters, but that can be detrimental to your long time goals. Do not take a break unless you absolutely have to. The only way to avoid skipping a semester is to complete all assignments before the deadline. Comment on discussion boards as soon as the instructor opens up the topic. Spend some time every day for research, so that you aren’t overwhelmed when your essay assignment is due. You can manage assignments by hiring a tutor and asking ‘can you take my online class for me’. Paying someone to do homework is definitely better than skipping a semester. Invest in stationery and textbooks just as your traditional college-going friends do: Buying textbooks in an online course just as you would buy them in an in –class course, helps you to study better. Mark important points and take down notes, just as any student in an online class would do. You’ll get access to the same resources, minus the face to face interaction: The camaraderie of a traditional college is missing, but online students get almost the same access to resources as would any in-class student. You can contact counselors or speak to coaches for help. Instructors are happy to help you with schedules. You can also login to group study forums for help on a topic. The only thing that’s missing is face to face interaction. If you are an introvert who prefers quietude, online learning is the perfect solution for you.
