Online Colleges: Responding to 10 FAQ

  1. Is it possible to complete a course or submit a requirement using a mobile device?

This would depend on your online college of choice. However, many online colleges do not allow the access of many functions using a mobile device. It is still best to have computer access or to discuss these matters with the school of choice.

  1. Do online courses have online class meetings or are they self-paced?

Most online college courses are not self-paced in the sense that there are a set number of hours and the number of weeks for every course. Typically, students are asked to report for a certain amount of hours (say 9 to 12 hours every week for 16 weeks) to participate in discussions, complete requirements, and provide the output for assessment.
Students are not given a common designated time to be online, but they are given specific instructions on how many times they need to participate and what time the online tests are to be answered. Clear guidelines are given by the professor at the start of the course.
It is important to note that each course, each professor, each program, and each online college may have different approaches when it comes to requirements.
