Advantages of Online Education
Advantages of an online education include:
- Fits family and work schedules and allows you to learn at your own pace—no need to attend class on specific days or times
- Its "green"-online classes save on gas, commuting and parking
- Its less stressful-no traffic, parking, or missed classes because of work, family emergencies or illnesses
- Everyone participates-online learning offers more interaction with classmates and instructors

The amount of time required to complete online coursework depends on the number of units per course. Allow approximately 2.5 hours of work per unit on any given week. For example, if a course is worth 3 units, you should dedicate at least 7.5 hours per week to your studies.
Students who have taken online courses recommend the following:
