I Love Online Education Because…

Share

It’s Valentine’s Day and that means we’re all about the love! Of course, we absolutely love online education here at Colorado State University-Global Campus, but we want to hear from you. In the post below we’re letting our community of students, alumni, and fans tell you what’s so special about the new wave of nontraditional higher learning, and the benefits that online education has to offer.

Take these love notes into account if you’d love to earn a promotion, switch industries, gain new skills, or advance in your expertise. You don’t need to put life on hold to earn a degree or career-relevant certificate, all you need is love (and a top notch online university that will make it simple.)

reasons to love online education

We recently asked our CSU Global Facebook page of nearly 8,000 friends to tell us what they love about online education. Here’s what we posted and just some of the amazing comments we received…

Fill in the blank:
I love online education because ___________.

  • The schedule fits perfectly into my busy life. I work full-time and I’m also a writer, so I keep quite busy. The class schedules keep me in line so I don’t forget what has to be done when. I have 4 more classes to go and then graduation!
  • The schedule! I am working on my master’s in healthcare administration and I work nights currently…preparing for what opportunities lie ahead, but making the most of my time right now.
  • I can make it fit around my other responsibilities in life, such as working full-time and being a parent.
  • I can do it in my yoga pants, be home with my son, and do it on a schedule that works for me!
  • I moved from Minnesota to North Carolina without having to change schools!
  • Because parking. My local university has zero available parking spots. Permits are several hundred bucks and you still have to be bussed all over most of the campus. It’s a huge time and resource drain, but with CSU Global I never need to worry about parking.
  • I create my own schedule. I can work on my master’s degree anywhere in the world!
  • It helped me attain my professional goals! I was able to study on my own schedule, keep my job, and obtained a professional career jump (great promotion) when I completed my program. This is the best college program I found. I am now a “Happy Graduate” :).
  • The fishing is no good in the classroom!
  • It allows me the freedom to be mobile. If I want to go on a trip I can still work on school while on the road.
  • I love the flexibility of nontraditional online learning because it allowed me to further my formal education while working 56 hours a week, and also raising two kids under three years old.
  • The classroom never worked with my ADD. The outcome of online education: a master’s degree with a 3.97 GPA, which was not possible in a classroom.
  • It makes the impossible possible.
  • Too much of my life is already scheduled, so this allows me to schedule how and when I learn any way I choose.
  • Because I was able to get my master’s degree and still be a mom, work full-time, and use what I learned as I learned it.
  • Because I can spend more time with family and it encourages me to be more self-disciplined.
  • I can be a wife, mother, employee, AND student since I can do school work on my own time.
  • I can complete my education around my schedule. Thank you CSU Global.
  • Because I want it that way!

Wow! That’s a whole lot of love and we couldn’t be more thrilled to part of all of this success. If you want to advance your career by gaining the skills, knowledge, and credentials necessary to get noticed by employers, see how online education can make it work.
