Taking online college classes is a lot like taking in-person classes; you still have a professor, homework and classmates, but you also have the flexibility to study where you want, and when it’s most convenient for you.
Taking college classes online is a great way to further your education while maintaining your current schedule and responsibilities, but if you've never taken online college classes before, you might have questions about how classes are set up and whether enrolling in them is the right move for you.
It can be tempting to try and earn your certificate or degree faster by taking as many classes as possible during each cycle. However, you should be cautious. Taking too many classes at one time may be overwhelming, add unnecessary stress or lead to burnout.
Pros
Cons
It's also worth noting that many of the challenges you may come across during an online class can be overcome with focus, grit and personal determination.
