Good for you, smart. You probably checked, but be sure the degree is accredited.

Good for you! I am also enrolled in online courses, and have been since Oct. 2013. It has been hard to stay motivated at times, in addition to taking an extreme amount of self-discipline to make sure I get all of my work turned in on time, but because I have kept going, I am currently in my next to last course before I graduate with my BA in Applied Behavioral Science with a minor in Psychology! It is extremely rewarding to know that I have come this far and have never slipped below a 3.72 GPA (currently a 3.80)! I just hope that it opens up some career opportunities for me!
As for your courses you have coming up, the closest I have taken were Leadership and Ethics in a Changing World (ABS415), Public Policy and Social Services (SOC320), and American History since 1865 (HIS204). Good luck to you, and Congratulations!

Looks interesting, I’m going to college this year and I can’t wait to start studying there as soon as possible. But I’m afraid of burnout, usually when I start learning something new my enthusiasm lasts for half a year and then I can’t find enough motivation. Haven’t figured out how to deal with it yet.

Hello, welcome to the forum.
College and burn out is something i can completely identify with… I couldn’t complete my MS because of burnout. I didn’t have any balance. I tend to go hard at everything i do. Balance is the key… If you take it one day at a time, get to know your professors and do your best, you’ll be ok. Collège is not easy but if you want it bad enough, you’ll succeed.
