Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Ashford University provides a great learning experience in a very unique environment. If you ask online Ashford students if they're happy with their choice to attend school there, most would probably say that they would do it all over again if they could, mainly because of its flexibility and convenience with schedules. The instructors are helpful and respond to questions in a timely manner, usually within one to two days. The instructors are helpful and encourage students to constantly look for better answers. Online classes are very convenient to students with complicated schedules; students can complete assignments at their own leisure, yet within the time constraints of deadlines. Most students find no problem completing their assignments.

A drawback of being an online student is that you don't have the opportunity to really check out the organizations or physical resources Ashford offers. However, the University does have an online library that students can go into from the Student Portal. The library is easy to use, and students can usually find most of the sources they need when writing a research paper. Even though it isn't your typical college interaction, the instructors and classmates are friendly and very helpful when you have questions. Students are able to help each other in unique ways. In one case, a student didn't have her book for class yet, and another student was able to scan a copy of the assignment and e-mail an attachment to her. Classmates are also helpful in post discussions and give each other timely advice and wisdom.

Student Body

I am currently taking online courses. From what I learned in previous courses, there is plenty of diversity. There are different ages, races, religions, locations, genders, sexual orientation, and others. We often have discussions to post, that allow everyone to state their thoughts and opinion. I have also learned there are a lot of military veterans at Ashford.

The Pros to Online Classes

Online classes are very convenient instead of sitting in class. I am able to manage my time better, since I do not have a specific time to attend class. Everything is organized, so I know when everything is due. The course work helps me learn better. I am able to chat with others in my course about assignments. Professors are always available.
