There are a variety of reasons why a student cannot attend classes at his/her desired college or university. He/she may have a family to raise, he/she may have some physical disability, he/she may stay at a distant place which makes it difficult to commute and becomes a job thus he/she loses energy to study etc. Online learning has emerged as a handy source for learning for students with such commitments. With online learning, you can really get a valuable Degree home.

Because of the popularity of internet, online learning has been widespread in the past few years. It is now possible for a student to attend classes without leaving the comfort of his/her home. The college or institute is of course, the website of the land-based college or university. Other than this, learning through the internet has got many advantages. For example, assignments are sent to the student via e-mail, and after completion student can send it back to the respective faculty member using the same process. Another benefit is that exams can be held online. You can actually sit in front of your computer, turn on the browser, open the website ...
... of your college, and start answering. It is as easy and comfortable to earn Degrees on line.

But before enrolling into any course, you should run a check on you as to what you really want from the course by asking yourself questions like these - is the university accredited by any governing body? What is the value of the course? What kind of course is provided? How is the quality of the course content and materials? How long will the course take to complete? What will be the cost (in monetary terms)? What kind of help/support is provided to the students? What is the system for grading students? What is the credit system? Is there any provision for reviewing the exam paper? Is there any provision for credit transfer? And most importantly, is the course recognized by the government?

Before you apply, do a research. Inquire about whether the university is accredited, placement record, passed percentage record of graduation and if possible, try to get in touch with already passed out students and find out about their learning experience. Another very important aspect of your pursuing a Degree on line is financial support. Find out whether the college provides financial assistance to online students, the procedures, the criterion, the repayment process etc.
