What did you like about your online classes?The program made me comfortable enough to ask any questions I had, and everyone was willing to help me succeed. The connections I made with other students and faculty definitely helped me through the entire process.
Did anything surprise you?There has always been a professor there that I could go and talk to in person when I needed further explanation or help! This really made me feel more comfortable knowing that I could still go to someone and ask for help when needed.
