Online vs face-to-face courses I've been studying online for about three years in an online university course. Because of this, I know exactly how it feels like passing many hours sitting in front of a computer instead of a regular face-to-face university course. I've chosen to enrol in an online class not for commodity but for necessity. I am currently living too far from the campus, which means I would have to spend some significant quantity of money for transportation. Besides that, an online course is half cost of a presential class. I guess these are the pros.  On the other hand, I have to admit that lonely way of studying sometimes makes me feel sort of uncomfortable. I miss talking to my tutors and teachers verbally, as I miss having a group of college friends that I could interact with. I have good memories from the high school days, but, unfortunately, I will not have the same in my college experience.   Sometimes I get myself wondering about the choice I've made, but it is easy for me to feel motivated when I look back and I see how close I am to complete the course and archive my goals. Also, I neither need to be well dressed nor carry heavy bags all my way to the campus. I just need to sit on my chair and all that I need will be there in front of me, very well accessible.  So, I have made a conclusion: of course there are pros and cons of enrolling in online courses, but I know that I have made the best option when I decided to adapt myself to the idea that this would be the only way to have my degree, since the geographic issues.  Besides that, although I miss an interaction with my classmates and teachers, I confess I like staying at home, especially in cold and rainy days like today, where I can study laying on my bed covered with my blanket and drinking a cappuccino. It definitely will be a good memory from my college days.
