I felt the urge that I needed to go back to school to complete college around August 07′. So I start checking into schools and what would benefit my schedule of being a mommy, wife, having a job full time and by own businesses that I have. How could I possibly make time for getting a degree?
I checked out Letourneau University and other schools that were available online but I ended up going with Kaplan University. I have maintained a GPA of 3.85 which has been very difficult to do with every thing else that I have going on. It does take commitment and time but, I made up in my mind that I was going to invest in myself! Because when all else fail you need something to fall back on!
Kaplan has been great! The online learning experience has been challenging. You still have to attend classes but everything is done online. The classes consist of two classes per term. A term is 10 units or 10 weeks. With Letourneau University you will have one class a term and the term last 5-6 weeks and if you attend class it is once a week for 4 hours. I couldn’t imagine myself sitting in class for 4 hours. So, that is another reason why I went with Kaplan. The online universities really do work. They are real schools that it available for you to get your degree with having a full time job or a challenges life style. It makes it easier for me because no matter where I go I can take school with me and won’t miss any classes, as long as I have Internet access and my laptop=)!
