online classes and regular classes together?

Hi i am currently working full time in the evenings and am contemplating on going back to school for spring semester. I wanted to know if it were possible to do both online and regular classes together. Gaining credits as a full time student. Many classes are closed now and im seeing open availability for online and wondered if it were possible to do both. and will financial aid cover both?

Opinions and/or experiences are appreciated…thanx and happy holidays.

I’ve been doing this for years. If your school offers classes online then it’s exactly the same as classes in the classroom. Be prepared for the online classes to be harder than in the classroom and very writing intensive. You don’t want to ever get behind in an online class.

Financial aid treats them exactly like the other classes offered. If you’re finding closed sections, see if your school has a 1/2 semester Spring II session – these should still be open right now.

I hate questions like that. Everyone, say, posts that the answer is $3,000, and it *is* $3,000. How are you supposed to expand on that type of thing? You often have to get creative in your responses. Here are some things you could try. See which ones work for you, and try them in this class: – Read the Wall Street Journal (or similar – Financial Times, etc.) before class, and see if you can find an article that’s somehow related to the topic being discussed, even if only tangentally. Bring up the article and comment on how it’s related to the DQ. – Try your best to expand, just a bit, on what the other person said. For example, something like… “I agree that the best answer is X. As the book says, “quote quote quote” (the reason why the person’s DQ answer is right). I’ve also found that (some other book) supports that when they said blah blah blah. In other words, you’re repeating the same info, but using different sources, or putting it in your own words. – If you have any work experience in accounting where you’ve done something similar to what’s being discussed, you could try to bring that in. – Ask the person a question in response to what they wrote. “Like you, I came up with $3,000 as my answer, based on X in the book. I actually got confused when I read X, Y, and Z – I got a bit stuck on Y. What did you think about Y? In this way, you’re participating and moving the discussion forward.

Yes, if you go to a school that has both types of classes. They do count toward your degree and financial aid can be used for them. I go to a community college and work full time so I go to school every day afterwards and take 2 online classes. Good luck!
