When I was in high school, I didn’t exactly hate school, but I didn’t love it, either.  Then I worked full-time for four years before deciding to go to college.  Maybe it’s because I was more mature, but I found that I LOVED college.

In fact, I’ve only been out a short time and I’m already thinking of going back!  I want a second degree, either another bachelor’s or a master’s.  This time, though, I think I’m going to go for an online degree.

The online education history has shown a lot of reluctance for society to accept it, but even so online ed has come a long ways since I was in college (the first time, I hope to be saying soon!).  Now the program I want is available through a traditional college halfway across the country — in fact, the very same college that my grandmother and great-grandmother went to.

The online education benefits make it well worth considering getting a degree online.  The degrees I am considering are not easy to find, so online ed makes it possible for me to still get the program I want, just without having to relocate — and we all know how going to college out of state can make tuition and living expenses MUCH more expensive!!  Also, online programs allow me to work on coursework when I have the time for it, rather than roping me to a schedule that I might not be able to keep (that is, if I want to keep my job and continue to pay my rent!).

I love this online education thing, and I can’t wait to get started on my next degree!
