Why would someone choose an online degree over a traditional degree?
Online education appeals primarily to adult learners who already have job and/or family responsibilities. An online degree program allows students the flexibility to study on their own schedule, without cutting work hours or taking time from the family. Others who find an online degree to be preferable include active-duty military personnel, students who are physically unable to attend on-campus classes, those who live far from a college campus, and those who travel often.
