Campus vs. Online. What’s the Best Option for Me?



When it comes to attending college, there are a number of questions and concerns that come up during the enrollment process. What school should I attend? How much is it going to cost? What type of degree do I want?

These are all great and valid questions. But there is one particular question you should be asking yourself as well, and could be the most important one as far as your success is concerned: Should I attend college on campus and have a more hands-on experience, or, should I attend college online and have the flexibility of working from home, or anywhere really?

The answer to this question varies person by person. Some people thrive in a campus environment and really grasp concepts better when face-to-face with a Professor. Others thrive in a more private environment where they can work at their own pace essentially and not be distracted with all the things that come with attending a ground campus. 

If you feel like you just can’t decide which option would be best for you, fret not future college graduate! Some schools offer a hybrid option, where you can attend college online AND on campus.
