Online Course Pros:
- More Social (Which can lead to networking and classmates trying to recruit you at their workplace
)
- The discussion forums are free points. Do simple replies on time and you get anywhere between 10-25% of your overall grade just from messaging on a forum board...
- Online courses can lead to better understanding of concepts if other students have prior experience with the topic
Online course con:
- If you don't have active classmates it can be impossible to reply to 2 classmates. Some teachers will take away points for this.

I'm a 19 year old, Software Engineer, who is enrolled at TESC for a B.A. in Computer Science. My bachelors coursework is completed and I am waiting for graduation to roll around. Will start pursuing ALM in Information Technology with a concentration in Software Engineering from Harvard Extension School sometime in the coming year.
