"There was a lot of networking, especially in the beginning of classes. Students saying: 'Reach out if you have any questions. I work in this department at this company.' In the end, if you want to work in that industry, you already have a connection, you can reach out to them on LinkedIn."
Course Flexibility
- Online (Asynchronous) Courses offer maximum flexibility. There are no set class times, allowing you to choose when to complete coursework. However, assignments must meet syllabus deadlines. For first-time students, INF 101—Information Literacy for College Success is highly recommended.
