Online college degrees are getting to be more and more popular nowadays, yes, I grant you that, and this is because more and more of our countrymen need to work immediately and can no longer afford to spend the time earning a college degree the traditional way. Sure, it will not be the same as going to a physical university in Berkeley, California, after all, they say education does not only happen in classrooms but with interacting with people from all walks of life; but if one cannot afford this, should she be deprived of a college degree and therefore be less competitive in the world of corporate America?

Professors for the online college degree programs will be the same professors teaching in the halls of your dear university, Miranda.

Your stress is caused by a variety of factors, including the often heavier-than-normal workload, as many online courses are compressed to enable a faster completion time.
One way to minimize stress is to make sure that your computer is in good working order. A lot online students have experienced a computer breakdown or malfunction the day of a final exam, or when a project is due. Installing anti-virus software like Norton to weed out viruses that may disrupt the speed of your computer is important. You should also upgrade your memory if your computer is older than three years.
Along with your computer, your own physical conditional is of course very important. Unhealthy eating habits and lack of sleep can also cause your system to break down when it is put under stress.
Remember, as a distant learner, the purpose is to have fun and enjoy your learning experience and complete coursework at your own pace. So always make sure you have adequate breaks in between your study sessions to talk on the phone, mingle with your family, grab a snack, or even read something humorous and unrelated to your course.
