<blockquote>Hello newbie, who may be wondering if taking online classes at SNHU worth it? Maybe you're a recent high school graduate looking to start college, or maybe your gap year turned into 3, 4, 5 years. Or maybe, like me, you started college but then didn't finish for whatever reason.... and then years later decided, what the hell, let me at least try. 

Well, my friend, it is absolutely worth it and let me tell you why -

# Flexibility - the lectures are all either videos or reading so there are no timed lectures you need to attend. You know your assignments are due every Thursday and Sunday - so besides having a heart attack every Thursday and Sunday about an assignment you may have missed, you KNOW your syllabus. As long as you set time aside, whether it's a couple of hours every day or just all day Saturday or Sunday, you can make it work.
# Stress Management - You take two classes at a time. That's it... two. Yes, you only have 8 weeks to complete an entire course but you ONLY have to think about two classes at a time. I don't know about you but my anxiety used to kick in because I would be working on one class and then get bombarded with 4 other class assignments/reading/projects. Here, you KNOW you only have one other class to work on - more assignments maybe. I had up to 5 assignments in any given class BUT they were usually interconnected and you only have to shift gear twice to go from one class to the next and back. This helps me manage my stress levels because, in the back of my mind, I could reassure myself that once I am done with *this* assignment, I just need to do the assignments in the other class.
# Professors* - This may depend on the professor and the classes you are taking but I had wonderful professors with real-life experience and who genuinely want you to succeed. Want to bombard them with emails at 2 in the morning because you can't figure it out? no problem, they will respond the next day. Want to schedule a time, at any time, to virtually meet with them before a project? 9/10 they would be happy to. It's ALL VIRTUAL so don't usually have to worry about office hours!

I had absolutely no issue with acceptance.</blockquote><blockquote>I write this as I am holding my diploma... only took me 10 years to get here but I am truly TRULY thankful for SNHU for providing the online platform for a non-traditional student like myself. And in case you were wondering if SNHU degree would be less than other schools - I got into Northeastern Law School... which is ranked 29th in the country.</blockquote>
