Being an online student has been great for me. I am a single mom and work full time. My free time is very limited. As an online student I am able to work around my busy schedule to complete all of the necessary work.
When I knew I was ready to go back to school I did a few surveys online to see what online schools were available and which one fit me best. I spoke with an advisor from Phoenix University first. She was very nice and understanding of my situation. We set up a time for a second chat about signing up but she never called me back. I was a little frustrated because I didn't have a number to contact her and I had my hopes up to start as soon as possible.
I went back online and took another survey for schools. Within a few hours I got a call from a man named Bobby. He listened to everything I had to say and he made me feel so good about myself and my decision to go back to school. We talked for about an hour and he told me he would call me again the next day with another person from Kapan's admissions. I was a little worried (because of my first experience) but mostly just overwhelmed with excitement.
The next day Bobby called back. We talked about my goals and plans to make school work for me. He explained Kaplan Online and the layout of the courses. After about three hours of being on the phone with him and admissions I was enrolled and starting classes within a week. I was in such shock because it was so easy to get started.
I have been a student now for almost a year and I cannot wait to graduate! I know without the possibility of an online course I would have not been able to go back to school. I am so thankful for the opportunities Kaplan has made available to me.
