Online College Degree Myths Debunked
Online bachelor degree programs often come with a bad reputation, but if you’re thinking of enrolling with an online college, don’t let yourself be influenced. Most people who badmouth online college degree providers are simply uniformed. And here are some of the most common myths people have about online college degree online programs and the real truth behind them.
Employees won’t hire someone with an online bachelor degree
Wrong. Most employees don’t even ask if you’ve studied online or not, unless you volunteer this information. On top of that, perspective employees are likely to be more interested in hiring someone who was able to juggle between school, work and family life.
To ensure you’re going to be taken serious in the work field, explore your school’s relationship with the local business community. Read the forums and see what graduates are saying and pay attention to what they complain about the most.
Online universities don’t offer scholarships
Wrong again. You should know that online college degree providers today offer pretty much all the facilities a traditional school does and that includes awarding scholarships.
What’s more, you’re more likely to get your hands on one of the scholarships if you are enrolled with a college degree online. How come? Well online colleges often focus on giving all students a fair shot at education, while traditional ones often award bursaries based on merit.
So the bottom line is that you don’t have to be an A+ student. You need to demonstrate a desire to learn and improve yourself in order to be accepted into a scholarship program with one of the many college degree online providers.
Online degrees are not accredited
This myth is half true. Sure there are phony online college degree providers and you need to watch out for them. These fake institutions might ask you for money and then never contact you again. Be very careful where you put your trust.
Before you apply anywhere, you should check to see if the online university you are contemplating is accredited. To do so you can access the US Department of Education website and search through the database. If the school is accredited, you’ll be able to find it in there.
Online degrees are too easy
If you’re main concern is that you won’t be challenged while studying for an online bachelor degree, don’t sweat it. You just need to make sure you choose an interesting program. On top of that, you should keep in mind that online coursework is equally challenges as it is in the physical class room. You’ll have deadline and you’ll be expected to take tests. You won’t have to become bored, this we guarantee.
Naturally, the level of difficulty for each online class varies. Algebra might be more difficult to grasp than Law, but it depends a lot on the student and his/her affinities.
Even so, online professors judge a student’s knowledgeability based on rigorous standards, just like at the traditional universities.
Hopefully this article will dissipate the fears holding you back from enrolling with an online college degree.
